Black Knight Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 When: 27th to 29th August 2016Host: Enzo MatrixBlitz GB;A. Pick a 24 hour time slot and build an un-started kit of any scale, the aim is to finish the kit in the 24 hour slot.B. Build an un-started kit over two 12 hour sessions, with no more than 12 hours between the two sessions, [The Wuss/ OAP option]Start a WIP thread with a start photo showing the time, ( a mobile phone will suffice), then as many progress pics as you want and finally a finish photo again showing the time.Bonus kudos points given for uniqueness of the clock, the on-plate presentation of the meals to be consumed and other things like great music videos etc. All the while remembering this is a family friendly forum ...Body count;1. dazdot2.

Black Knight Posted July 28, 2015 Author Share Posted July 28, 2015 By picking the right kit I'm aiming for a three hour build I challenge thee. I throw down thee gauntlet. It can be done, but just how fast. Assembly, painting and decaling. No pre-painted, pre-marked jobbies allowed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonymousDFB1 Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Sir, I accept your challenge if only to prove to thee that I would never stoop to such under hand methods of pre painting or masks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arniec Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 That sounds interesting. I could get a old Matchbox kit out of the stash. Cheers, 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Knight Posted July 29, 2015 Author Share Posted July 29, 2015 I've added you to the body count Arniec. 5 bodies; we're nearly there! only 25 more to go. Roll up, Roll up, Prove you are Master of the Plastic. Build a kit within 24 hours - or can you do it in less? Challenge the Mysterious Mish, can you beat her record of 6 Hours? You'll not know till you try. Dare you try? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

depressed lemur Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Ok, add me to the roll of honour. No idea what but possibly the original Jaguar from Airfix. At least they didn't bother with all the stencils back then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stosh65 Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 In. Saw the last one of these and thought it sounded great. Will be properly nostalgic. In fact, I believe my Dad has just procured for me the old airfix Typhoon which feels an appropriate kit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Knight Posted August 21, 2015 Author Share Posted August 21, 2015 No more takers for this challenge? Come on... join in. It'll be worth it just to find out if Mish can beat her six hour build record. She says she's aiming for 3 hours - can she do it? We'll only find out if the Blitz GB goes ahead. And that means we need numbers to take it to the voting. Join today! You know you want to! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnonymousDFB1 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 No pressure then It'll be worth it just to find out if Mish can beat her six hour build record. She says she's aiming for 3 hours - can she do it? We'll only find out if the Blitz GB goes ahead. And that means we need numbers to take it to the voting. Join today! You know you want to! No need for this one to go for a vote. If we have enough people interested to make it worthwhile and can agree on a weekend we can slot it it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
