Everything is fair game on the 12 Hour GB Mark, as you well know. So sure, the egg plane or whatever else you fancy will work.

Well you do tend to add a little more detail than what the kit has in the box. :wink: I have to fight that urge here if I want a chance to get across the finish line within the time limit. :hmm:

Session 2 finished up a little while ago, and it was mostly smooth sailing. There were no major surprises along the way, and even my planned modifications and additions went without trouble. At 3 hours in to the session I had all construction completed. The gray parts are Hobbyboss, from a sprue that I bought online to provide missing detail items

And 45 minutes later I had a nice coat of Mig One Shot Black Primer on... and my airbrush cleaned!

I have four hours left in the next session to paint, decal, and weather. I just might pull this off!
