At my most recent AMPS meeting we had our annual Four Hour Build Challenge. In this challenge, everyone picks a model they think they can get done in four hours. Hair dryers were provided to speed the drying of paint in order to facilitate things. Any model any scale was allowed, so I chose an ancient blister-packed kit of the Airfix P-51D Mustang. This is the very ancient model that barely resembles a P-51, had no cockpit interior, the decals were quite yellow and it was extremely basic in construction. After three hours and ten minutes, I had this finished:    It does look like a child did it, and it has tons of flaws, but it was done in three hours which makes me quite happy. I like it. Thanks for looking in. |

Thanks Bruce! It was a simple kit after all.
Joe, I know that at least three other people completed their models. Most everyone else got within 30% to 90% done.

Somehow, I missed this one. I think it looks great for such a short duration build! Most of my long term stuff doesn't look this good!
