1/72 MQ-21A Superhawk
« on: June 21, 2018, 01:57:37 AM »
I wanted to have this kit completed for the UAV GB but it never got completed. But I have severe case procastinitis.

Original thread is here: http://beyondthesprues.com/Forum/index.php?topic=7581.msg133723#msg133723

But I went to my family doctor who me told there is a new drug to help with modelling procrastination. It is called: "Getoffyourassium". 

And it's a miracle drug. I am starting with a dose of 2.5 Kg per day and already I see results.

Here the Boeing-Sikorsky MQ-21A Superhawk. It was a RAH-66 Comanche. Just need to add decals and weapons.

I am giving up listing them. They all end up on the shelf of procrastination anyways.

Nope. It will be finished this week. All incomplete GB kits will get done first while I feel the full effect of my new found drug!

I will enter this into the 2018 Clear your workbench GB. Is there a limit? My number of entries could be in the double digits.

2.5kg/day?  How do you get all of that in to your body at one sitting?  :)

Pressurized IV feed. much like some offices have resorted to pressurized caffeine IV feed to eliminate time lost at coffee machines.

Plus it is in a concentrated form. It expands to full potency once it's inside me. I expect the dosage to be reduced once I show improvement and get a few kits built.
