Model Build Gathering: August 16 2008

Terry arrived early so we can fix his airbrush. I took the airbrush apart and threw the front parts into a cup of lacquer thinner and ran the stuff through my ultrasonic cleaner. The nozzle was damaged so we went out to Coast Airbrush to pick up parts. Folks started arriving around 1:30 and everyone sat down and started building. I sat down and started working on my Kanu. We had a few new guys come out. Here are a few quick shots of folks building stuff.

July’s Model Build Gathering

It’s 4:45 PM and I’m still trying to recover from yesterday’s build gathering. Early in the morning, I hit up a showing of Dark Knight with Will and Chris, and rushed back with them in tow to the house to find that Travis and company were already here. People showed up fairly promptly this gathering, and I think we hit 18 people before 3PM. The house cleared once Otakufuel showed up, and everyone was outside buying kits. Here are a few pictures of the three sections of build areas we ended up with:

We have a good number of new people this time; I believe we have about 7 or 8 new folks. Hugo watches them intently…
