Like I described in the opening video!

You or any members of the Armed forces you will be depicting, don't have to have served in
A conflict to be eligible!

We are celebrating honour!
And thanking them for what ever sacrifice they migth have given for us!

I am sure your father will be very happy and proud !

Later buddy!

I'm in. I don't do youtube videos so I'll try a "photo approach" of the build.

Please note: I am Greek, I know nothing about Canadian history. I don't want to give a "disrespectful image" of myself to anyone. I am just participating for the experience of a GB. Thank you.

If I had the cash for more kits I would join in guys, but I haven't anything in the stash just now, and every penny more less that I earn in my recently acquired part time job goes straight on bills etc, and with Xmas coming up I simply can't afford to buy anymore kits.

If I had the means to get a new kit then I would be getting a Sexton for sure!

that was an 'epic' video... get it.. see what I did there... :doh: (too bad there's no face-palm)

Now all that needs to happen is for my T-33 to arrive!!! IT'S ALMOST 2014, HOW CAN IT TAKE 3 WEEKS+ TO SHIP ANYTHING?!?! Our planet is really not THAT big... If I can fly from one side of the planet to the other in 24 hours, there is no legitimate reason for a package to take anything longer than 3-4 days, MAX! From anywhere, to anywhere... ok, rant's over... I WANT MY T-33!!!

The postage Gods heard me and rewarded me for my patience... or lack there of :P

IT'S HERE!!!

Came in around 12:30pm tonight, and found this sitting between the screen door and the front door... kinda pissed it was just left there, but also really happy that it's here...and I might have had a few :cheers2: tonight and am in a great mood :dance:

Super excited to hopefully get started with this tomorrow, at least the kit review!

Is there a plan to actually make a thread for this GB, or should all pics just be uploaded as we go?

Cheers :thumb2:
