Welcome to the first Blitzbuild of 2019. This will run from Saturday 25 May to midnight on Monday 27 May. It fits nicely around the bank holiday. Although the GB runs for three days, you don't actually get three days to finish your model. You get 24 hours! This can be done in two ways: 1. The Superhero Option Complete your model in a single 24 hour time slot 2. The Other Option Complete your model in two 12 hour slots, seperated by no more than 12 hours. Still pretty heroic, if you ask me. You can start on the Saturday and finish on the Sunday or start on the Sunday and finish on the Monday. Start a WIP thread with a start photo showing the time, ( a mobile phone/tablet screen/computer screen will suffice), then as many progress pics as you want (but at least six) and finally a finish photo again showing the time. Bonus kudos points will be 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 ... 25% Rule: This is a short GB intended to showcase speed building skills with an unstarted kit. Therefore, the 25% rule is suspended for this GB. All kits must be unstarted, although removal of main components from the runners is acceptable. All the othe usual GB rules apply, the most important being to have fun. It's The Law!

Well, I was born on 6 May 1961. Incidentally, the same day as George Clooney. I'm quite envious of his fame and fortune but it's all swings and roundabouts. I have it on good authority that he is envious of my good looks and boyish charm.

I've made my choice. Not only is it from the year that I was born, but it happened on the day before I was born.

I was just about to post something similar...

The two Xtradecal sheets are now available. One of each is winging their way to me even as we speak.

Well, my four are in the gallery - as usual, right at the end of the GB. This has been an excellent GB, but is also the end of an era. We have had a epic range of connected GBs over the past four years. Many thanks to Col. for hosting this one and in fact all of the NATO v WarPac GBs.
