I know this is the final, final day for the campaign, and I'm not sure which part of the world the midnight deadline hits, but here's last night's progress. I'll finish what I can and post to the gallery tonight!


Cheers!

Sean: Greenwich Mean Time, but we are not counting minutes here...
Don't know if I'll finish either

Re-doing the kitchen has taken more time than I thought.

It's an AeroPlast kit-- I believe the same kit is offered by CMK also. Not fantastic, but at 1/35 scale, it's the only game in town! I would bet that any 1/24 or 1/25 scale kit is much better-- doesn't Tamiya make one?-- but this little guy fits into my 1/35 and 1/32 collection. This kit is meant to be the earliest production from the 1940's.
In the gallery, I noticed that mmeier started this kit also.

Well all!! This Group Build is finished!! Well Done Everybody!!
It was a great pleasure to be a part of this and see everybody's progress. Mostly though it was fun seeing these German Beauties displayed!!
For those of us who didn't finish (me included) at least you participated and had fun. Personally I need incentives like this to build and therefore I have no problems being the PIC.
There are two other GBs underway: People Movers and Vintage n Classics. A racing GB is in the making as with a few other ideas... So stay tuned and GET R DONE!!!

Well done all. I have enjoyed this build, my first in many years. I think that this has got me back into the hobby.
Modelling is something we never perfect. We should never quit learning new tricks and be willing to share what we have learned on our own.

I have given everybody a ribbon that has a picture of a completed German Beauty in the gallery.
If you have completed everything within the time frame but haven't received a ribbon let me know, and please put a picture in the gallery so everybody else can admire your work!
