The official Junior GB of 2009!

	Welcome to the 2009 Junior GB! Currently, I am hammering out some rules to go by, but here's what I have so far: 1. Dates will be: May 20th to October 1st, so we will have all summer to build! (Note: All members MUST sign up by June 6th! At D-Day, we must know how many kits we will need.) 2. All entrants must be under 18, however if your 18th birthday is in the middle of the build, or was shortly before the build began, don't sweat it. 3. One build per person to start (Which is the one being entered into the mini-contest), and if they have time, they can do a second/third whatever. 4. There will be a mini-contest at the end, popular vote for best model. If so, there will be an extra prize at the end for him donated by Jim! 5. We are considering giving a kit to those who finish their first build on time. So far, Soulcrusher has offered to donate some WWII aircraft. A toast to him! 6. Badges, should it be like last year's, or will a new design be in order? Temporary ones I'll have until you finish the build. This is really gonna be fun! Please, sign up on the thread or PM me if you have questions! Graham --------- The Builders: (Please correct the roster to the best of your knowledge.Thanks.) Graham The Builders: Boba Fett: age 15. My build(s): Dragon M4A3E8 Sherman, Done! Humvee dio, futureistic Stick man: age 14. His build: Huxy: age 17. His build: A Tamiya Sd.kfz 251/1 Tamiya Kubelwagon Modelmaniac 96: age 12.

Re: Junior GB?

	I'm here I was here last year too, and my badge is still visible.. I just got done with 2 others (including one I hosted) but haven't had time to get them in my signature... This will also be my last.. Bleh! I'm turning 18 next year.. I hate that.. I can atleast take the carlicense then.. 18 year limit in Norway One thing Boba Fett, last year it was planned that other members gave a free kit to those who finished.. But this never got around.. You may want to go on the different forums and ask for volunteer givers? -Lasse "Every War Starts And Ends With An Invasion". WWII and Warhammer 40k modeller, WWII hobby historian.

Re: Junior GB?

	Alright! I will make this official! Welcome to the 2009 Junior GB!!!!!!!! I will update the first page to be a list of rules, etc. It sounds good to give a person a kit. I will make a round of last year's people (I have to do reasearch, this is my first year on the forums!) and all of you guys, please go on a binge for recruiting! "Pretty.

Re: The official Junior GB of 2009!

	Ahhh...! The Churchill Crocodille.. Built that a long, long, long time ago! Goes togheter well (as I remember).. It was back in the days when I just used a kitchenknife, glue and had just started "painting" (If that is what you can call it ) What I'll build, I have to find out.. Give me some time... And glad to have you here, Jim! One idea for the roster.. Set everyone's age aswell there? Would be rather nice to instantly see the members' age? And Boba, ask around for that free gift idea.. From what I understand, there were many interested last year, but it just never happened.... -Lasse "Every War Starts And Ends With An Invasion".

Why not? It's technically under 18, but since your birthdate was so close to the date... You're in, New 1!!!

Jim, thanks. PM returned

Stick: gotcha

EDIT I want to start this mid May, say the 20th.

Re: The official Junior GB of 2009!

	Boba you mabye should start threads in the other forums like armour and aircraft so that we can see if we've missed any other people who might be able to join. The 20th sounds good to me for a start date. I'm 15 and I model I sk8board and I drum what could be better.
