Group build

[Flyingmonster]

Japanese Agressor? Im dreaming already! So many options.... I know this is a bit ridiculous but a TigerMeet one!!! I think im getting over ecited!!

[viper3111]

I think you had better stock up on tsr2 kits dude, I think I may stay with either a raspberry ripple scheme or japanese one

Im finishing early so im running to the local to see what I can get my hands on! Pay Day in a week! Buggar saving for christmas! everyone can get a TSR 2 kit and I will build it!

How cool would a TSR-2 look in this scheme!




still going to do a Snow camo one I think though

[Flyingmonster]

Well you have come to the right place

We are just finishing of the current builds but the next one is being decided on at the moment. The three that I have chosen from some of the ideas are here for people to vote onviewtopic.php?f=305&t=20960. It will run for 4 months but 2 months into the build I will start another one, each time having the theme chosen by vote so it is fair.

I am looking at starting the first one around december/january time so there will be a bit of time for people to get everything they need for the build. If you need any more info then please dont hesitate to ask

[markmarples]

does that mean i can do my front line Hawk, armed to the teath in gulf markings

[viper3111]

Im guessing thats for the current gulf war build?

[markmarples]

no the front line whifs ie. tsr2, ect the Bae Hawk never saw front line service as a fighter / bobmber

[viper3111]

That did confuse me for a minute there

If that is the first theme chosen then I dont see why not

[viper3111]

Im afraid its serious question time.

When would everyone like the next group build to start?

I was going to leave it until the model comp finishes but as I am asking people to vote on the topic I thought it only fair I ask when you all ant it to start.

As a small incentive the first group build will be sponsored by SAM publications and there will be a couple of books up for grabs to reward people on there hard work. It wont be a full blown competition, just a couple of prizes for the 2 builds that really stand out

If this is successful then every other GB will be sponsored by SAM .

How about the end of November? That gives people a bit of time to get what is needded. That way we welcome the New year with a Group Build

[viper3111]

I like that as it will give me time to get my gubbins from telford as I will need decals for my TSR2 or some detail bits for my harrier. I havnt got a clue what I would do if people choose the mildenhall one though

[Flyingmonster]

Sounds grand! Mildenhall is a tricky on as there is so many options mate! Maybe we could ask some of the guys that have logs if they have some from a few Fetes? See what the main options are?

[benyboy]

Sorry I am not contributing much at the moment guys. I`m working two jobs, day and night. Ends are nearly meeting now

I voted for the `what if` and end of November sounds good to me.

Viper - Can I put my YB-49 on hold for the GB and build my B-17. Reason being my secret plan for the YB was to build it at as `Vietnam B-49` armed with Shrike. SEA colour scheme, in a diorama ( on a shelf) hard standing and ground equipment. It seems more appropriate for this build now.

Ben

[viper3111]

I dont see why not Ben

[Flyingmonster]

Do like the sound of that Ben mate!!

[viper3111]

Any body going to start a Harrier?

I will be starting mine shortly after Ive sorted a few things out

[Seamus]

A Harrier GB? How have I missed this?

How long does it run for Shaun? I'm planning on starting an FA2 for another GB in the new year, so can enter it for this as well if there's time

[markmarples]

i was going to but i now have a problem, its called a sea vixen!!!!
