Here is a poll with a twist. Your input will guide a build by a modeler in the "Spotlight". This will be a feature you get to help with. Based on your votes here on the poll a modeler will build the model providing WIP photos and threads. The final build will become a feature on the site.



Poll

Here is a thread that shows pictures of the models in the poll

If you have comments or questions please post them here.

Thanks!

First I’d like to thank Scott for putting this together and setting it up…thanks Scott!

All right, well here is the plan. This well be a full scale build starting from cleaning up the kit right down to painting and decals. Also the plan is to add in as much detail as possible using stuff that can be found around the house. I’ll also show the different aftermarket products out, but the goal here is to do without.

The object here is to try to get as many of you to join in on this build and spark up some interest. There is no time frame here, this will be paced out over time, I know we all have other projects going on…including me. So lets get voting and crack open one of theses kits. Please feel free to vote even if your not planning on to build along.

Happy Modeling,
Joe

Great idea Scott and thanks for taking it up Joe. My vote will have to be for the "Jeff Gordon’s Billion Dollar Monte Carlo using Slixx decals, scale 1/24th".. those decals look absolute murder... but if somebody can do them justice, it's Joe. Good luck with the feature.

Cheers
Henk
