Alvis 3.1 Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Once again, the horror that is Silly Week is upon us, when accuracy and reality take a back seat to silliness. So far, we've had: Dave "the Rat" Bailey show up with a RCAF Bowrider SAR plane (awesome!) Kees Kuyper with his Single Engine P-38 (Hilarious!) Dave Bailey again with his Supermarine Corbeau (Wow, you actually got an old FROG kit finished!) Hal Eslberry with his Platypus Trusk (Love the hood/sign!) and Alvis 3.1 (me) with a Hippie Huey and the Star Trek/Star Wars mashup ship. Looks like it's gunna be another good Silly Week!

SBARC Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 I'm enjoying it very much so far. It's a great way to enter the new year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Slartibartfast Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 I love Silly Week. It shows me just how little imagination I have. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
k5ikl Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Oh goodie, Silly Week. I just love it. Don't build for it but really like viewing what others have come up with. So, let it begin.... Cheers, Jerry Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SteelWolf Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 I just sent in my Silly Week submission earlier tonight. I hope Steve gets it ok. This is my first time submitting anything. Though I was kinda let down when I got a reply saying it would be posted in 3-4 weeks.........very late after Silly Week is done. :( But if it does get posted, I may have just surpassed Alvis in the craziness factor. Hehehe! ;) I won't say what the subject is. You'll just have to wait and see. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Don't worry, Steve usually fast tracks the Silly Week stuff, it's the once-a-year opportunity to be zany. I'm prolific, but I get surpassed in the cray-cray pretty often. Some of you modellers, you are REALLY insane! Alvis 3.1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
archybean Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 I too am new to submitting anything to silly week, and like SteelWolf sent it in last night. Good to hear about fast tracking. These two builds finally shook off my couple years long slump to actually finish something and got the juices flowing to dive into something else to finish. Too bad I have to pack stuff up for a move! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Rat Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 (edited) There's a song about Silly Week that usually stops being sung about a week too early: It's the most wonderful tiiiiime of the yeeeeaaaar! Edited January 5, 2015 by The Rat Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Air2 Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 The single-engined P-38 (P-19??) is one of the coolest and funniest what-ifs! Love it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SteelWolf Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Just submitted another article tonight for Silly Week. Probably not quite as funny as my Food Fight submission though. But you might get a chuckle out of it nonetheless. ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Rat Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Had another couple I was going to submit, but December was a horrible month for me, lot of crap going down, so they didn't get finished. But they will be up in '16, and more as well! Great job to everyone, the creativity really gets a chance to shine during Silly Week, and let's keep the craziness going!

industrialmachanic Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 As a two time contributor to SILLY WEEK, (and both have just been by chance), I'll say I like it. But hold your breath !! for my next ARC posting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
