This will be a fun build to watch
March as one, Don't look back
Odin's sons... Attack!
Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall

Exciting stuff!
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Building a kit from your stash is like cutting the head off a Hydra, two more take it’s place.

This should be good! :popcorn:

Are you planning to use one of the kit markings options?

I was thinking of the AK409 with the bee and I might need a few light kicks in the butt every now and then if it doesn't go any further here.

Very cool! I have the same kit and I was gonna use a lot of aftermarket on it too. Can't wait to see your build.

No worries, we're here to keep you motivated. :whip:
Looking forward on how you'll do your magic on that kit.
