Group build

Maybe using the same kit would be a good idea? Then people can learn how other people do things

If people wanted to get the same kit then that would be cool

[POL]

I half started 1/48th F-105 would be a nice kit to do I think

[viper3111]

Well I did buy the gannet to do for this but if you want we can do a vote on the kit and I will just get that one.

I think it would be best to keep it to 72nd though

Suggestions please

[Flyingmonster]

Im happy yo do whatever we choose. I do like the sound of the Gannet though. maybe we could chose 5 and the do a Vote?

[viper3111]

Sounds like a plan

Cheers dude

[Flyingmonster]

Just having a look on the Airfix site and I found these ones I quite like the look of..

Whirlwind
Mirage III
Yak 9 D
Sea Hawk
P47

These ones are all 1/72 scale. Is there a set Scale to follow Shaun?

[viper3111]

As I thought it would be good for the beginners, I think the best scale would be 72nd

[markmarples]

airfix also do the new red arrows kit as a gift set

Ah sounds grand mate! There is some good 'Beginner Kits' Airfix do. Is the Gannet 1/72?

[viper3111]

It most certainly is

Come on people, any more ideas for the kit? Jamie and me cant do it all

Newbies, dont be shy I am doing this to help you out. We are a friendly forum so dont worry about how good or bad you think you are

[jamesv9820]

Shaun,

When are you running this to/from?

[viper3111]

I was thinking of doing it from now (or at least once we can sort out the kit), but it depends on when people want it to start. I thought it would be good for those who arnt taking part in the comp to join in with something. But if people want it after it has finished then thats cool

[jamesv9820]

I would like to join this one but to be honest with the amount of kits i have to do this "Back to basics" group is just not going to happen!

[viper3111]

Ok then we will forget the whole thing until next year, I ask for peoples contributions as to what they want and only jamie and mark are constructive.

I am starting to wonder why I bother

[jamesv9820]

Shaun,

Don't get disheartened, I think most people are concentrating on the Main Build at the moment, Its nice to see that in 5 - 6 months that the numbers who contribute have more than doubled and that is something to be proud of.

[Flyingmonster]

Mate I am sure I speak for everyone when I say that we really really appreciate everything you do for the forum and the Modelling Section! You have so much experiance that you share and do so in such a great manner!! I know for a fact that without alot if all of your help I would not have got back into modelling!! Thanks Dude!!! Your really are a true Dude!

I would go for the Airfix `Reds` Hawk. That way we can put a team together.

I like it!! Great idea!!

[markmarples]

i am more than happy to help with any missing serial numbers or decasl for reds hawks as i have about 30 kit sheets sapre

[Flyingmonster]

Thats good to know Mark! Maybe we can try and build as many of the Hawks that the team have used? Also the Hawk Starter kit is quite a nice little build! Has anyone got any other ideas? Dont be shy folks!!
