A great thought!  I'd say the theme should be "Bring Out Your Dead"!   Let's all pull one more unfinished model off the shelf and finish it in his honor!  Thoughts?

Got to be that, and also include Snake-Fu for anyone who doesn't have longstanding WIP (?!). Not a full rebuild, but a bit of extra detailing and TLC of a 'pre-loved' kit?

Since I originally started this six years ago, and Snake liked it, I would be more than happy to share it in a "Bring Out Your Dead" tribute thread. I've been back working on it for a couyple of months, now, but, if you'd allow it...Here's our interaction about it:

How did I miss this? Whenever he responded to a post or comment, he was always kind and helpful to me. I pray for his loved ones. Going to miss him!

Tom, do you think you could be the one to start it? Something along those lines would be perfect, as most folks have long-standing projects......... I should mention that the idea of a build for Snake wasn't completely my idea, as another member had mentioned it first.......

Yikes!   Yet another stalwart of the hobby moves on.  I echo the thoughts of all above.  Godpeed, Sir Richard!   TB

I think this is a great idea. It would be the greatest tribute to our lost friend.

I have been working up a list of my unfinished projects. Have a couple of potential candidates.

I would offer to manage it but I'm in the process from recovering from several surgeries and my primary focus is getting my strength back. Hoping to get back home in a couple of weeks.

Love the idea, Snake would love this. Sadly I just finished up the last of my box of shame inventory. The most unfinished one I'm not working on only needs paint, this means I won't be able to participate.

I’m in too! I’d mentioned it to a couple of other members in private and it seemed well received. Gratuitous pic of my “Shelf of Shame” included.

I don't have a shelf of sa

Hame. I have a wall of shame of projects(approx 100)  stalled due to a variety of reasons. The range is from peppered and ready to paint to complex projects that have stalled due needing to figure out some aspect.
