I regret to inform you that due to health issues Pete has asked to be allowed to drop out of this GB. I will not go into details but as we all know health is more important than a few bits of plastic.
I will find a volunteer to take over the helm and steer this GB home. @Polux .That would be you my friend. lol
If you cant let me know asap and I will Volunteer one of the other mods. lol

That is sad news. He was really up for this, his G.B. I'm sure we will all wish him all the best.

If Polux or anyone else involved in this build is unable to take over, and as I only have one build running for this years G.B. which doesn't start until September, I'm more than happy to help where I can, but obviously it would be far better for someone directly involved with this G.B. to take over than 'Outsider'

Due to the easy going nature of this G.B. I would suggest the running of it would be very straight forward and would probably run itself.

[Mr Bowcat]

I'm happy to help out if needed chaps.

[Ian M]

I have batted it around with the other mods and the winner is Papa. A good choice if I say so myself as he is already active in the GB and was willing.
So over to you ian.

[papa 695]

Thank you Ian.
This is still Pete,s GB the rules are at the top of page one, I’m just stepping in if anyone has any questions or queries.
Looking forward to starting this one chaps.

Before today I freely admit I thought this G.B. (to quote Monty Python) 'Too silly!'
Not any more. My wife has just surprised me with this....She's admitted she clocked me looking at one.

I never thought I'd write this, but what a revelation! I've just had a peep in the box. For under a tenner delivered, what a cracking little kit it is. Far from 'Silly' it's great and I look forward to making a start on it.

Cheers.
Ron

Haha!!! Welcome aboard Ron.

Let’s see your personal style on one of those kits....:smirk:

I've seen these Toon Models a as a bit of fun, but obviously some people take them seriously - You can get detail sets for some! Pictures from Hobby Search ( Japanese Shop )

Hi Ron and welcome aboard, your wife has made a very good choice indeed and good luck with the build I'm very pleased you like the kit. As you know I've built one or twelve of these I just think there good fun builds, this is the one I built last year with a few of my own upgrades.

Nice to have you aboard Ron, and well done Mrs Ron for getting him one.

[Mr Bowcat]

Only one more sleep until the GB kicks off.

Stupidly I have 2 other builds on the go at the moment, but both are now in the paint stage so should have time to get on with the Blackbird while things dry.

[papa 695]

Think I may stop up until midnight to start this one eh eh.
