My Camaro should be here tomorrow. Can't wait to join in on the GB.

Can't wait to see it!

Great job on the firewall. It can't be easy working with such an old Monogram kit, but you're doing a heck of a job with it. Well, that figure is something else, brought back good memories of building those kind of kits as a young kid. On the flip side of that, I can't help but be amazed at how far models have come through the decades.

Agreed. Looking very nice.
I had built a P-38 from Tamiya. All of the parts fit so perfectly that it practically built itself.

Firewall made, that took some effort. And the driver dude has only half arms and legs. If I decide to use him I might sculpt the missing parts from Milliput.

I'll probably attack the bodywork next.

I agree with brother Dan. You did a great job with your fire wall, and figure!
Love it

Started on the decals. So far so good.
They're not perfect but I'm not going to mess with them anymore.

That's some tough livery to deal with. Looking good and awesome job.

Your Mustang is looking fantastic! A lot of attention to detail.

Thanks. PM

Complicated for sure, but I think they look great.

@ Gary,
I have found three parts on the sprue that are not listed in the instructions. A10, A19, and A30. Is it the same with your kit?

@Pantherman You guys are going to have to slow down on the builds, mine is still in transit and the GB will be over before I even get started...lol

I think (still a newbie here with only ~13 months) that GBs here can take a VERY long time, and have few rules. In other words, just for fun.

To wit.

Looks great, nice work.
