;D Less than 2 days to go now. ;D
Even if your not in on this build this year, check in on us, as we will be posting photos throughout the entire build. You will also have the opportunity to post comments to the photos.
Keep us motivated guys. Coffee only goes so far.

Gary how offen would you like us to post updates Just when you see fit. On our first 2 builds, when you needed a drink, a rest room break, or just a break from building, we took a few photos and posted them. As the build went on, we spent some time reading comments and checking out the progress of our fellow modelers also. Just having fun is the key here. ;D |

I am ready. Been looking forward to this again. I have all my stuff ready to go. Did you come up with instructions on how to operate a sray paint can for John? I sure did. A few more hours of instruction and he should be ready to try spraying all on his own. On his first 2 attempts with some Tamiya black spray, John sprayed himself in each eye.  Now that we have established the direction of the arrow on the top of the can "Racoon Z" is doing fine.   Are we being too ruff on you John! (LOL) I had a good laugh at that one Gary. I want to clear the air on this one. I noticed that I have not posted anything since you posted this. I was not mad or anything like that. Right when you posted this I had a death in the family and had to fly back home for about a week. I had no internet access there. Upon arriving back in WV my next door neighbor of 20+ years passed away....another funeral. I just wasn't in the mood to post anything. I was checking out the board last night and saw this and showed it to my family and we all had a good laugh. Laughter really is the best medicine  . It's nice to have friends like you and a place like this to come to. BTW, I love the "photoshoping" on the raccoon picture. Truth is I've never sprayed my face before but I have painted my left arm  . I can't wait. In less than 24 hours I will be at your house building a F1 Ferrari. This year I am going to finish the model in 24 hours!! Good luck to everyone else who is joining in. |

I'm still not sure if I'm going to make it or not. If I do, it will certainly be last minute! Should get home tomorrow sometime. If I make it, I'll be building a 64 Impala.

Well it's coming up on 10:00 pm, and I think I better get some sleep before trying to stay up for 24+ hours.
Good luck to all doing the build and I'll be checking in on each of you during the build. Please keep the photo posting coming during the 24 hours.

I'm sitting on the couch drinking a cup of coffee. The first of many I'm sure ;D. I leave for Gary's house in about 45 minutes. This is going to be a blast.
To the board members. If you stop by and check out the builds, post a message. We get a kick out of them and look forward to them. You can leave anonymous messages or you can leave a name.
See you Sunday!
