Hey, I"m in! And for all you guys in the WWI GB that was featured in the lastest issue of FSM, congrats. Looked great in the forum, they look even better in print.

plastickjunkie Looks like we have plenty of interest in this GB!!
Looks like we have plenty of interest in this GB!!
You said it PJ! Thanks everyone for making this build possible Later on tonight I'll make the thread over in the group build forum.
Bish, If you don't want to do rigging, how about the Roden Junkers D1?
Its comes in 1/48 or 1/72 and not something you see built often.
If you are thinking about the E.III, I built the Revell 1/72 a few months back.
It was my first time rigging and it wasn't that hard to do.
edit and here's the link http://cs.finescale.com/fsm/modeling_subjects/f/29/t/157905.aspx
panzerpilot, a very similar experience for me as well. Before my age hit double digits (roughly 50 years ago), my neighbor showed me a fokker tripe he'd built. Can't remember the manufacturer (Aurora maybe?) - it was a gawdy burgandy color, but at the time one of the coolest things I'd ever seen.
Bish, I had a feeling you'd be dropping in for another one! Excellent! If you want to go easy on the rigging this time (wouldn't blame you a bit after all you put into that eye-popping 0/400), either the D.VII or the Dr.I are excellent choices.

"We have our own ammunition. It's filled with paint. When we fire it, it makes pretty pictures....scares the hell outta people."
Ye, I was looking at that as well as there Dr I. Nice scheme as well, colourful but don't look to difficult.
I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so
On the bench: Airfix 1/72nd Harrier GR.3/Fujimi 1/72nd Ju 87D-3
Bish, look at the revell 1/72 Fokker D-7 kit. It is very simple, but can build up nicely with the only rigging in the undercart.
That Fokker e-3 in 1/72 will be a "nightmare" to rig I think ;-)
Theuns
can't believe I am doing this, WW1 is not my thing and I never buy a kit for a GB. But my 0/400 needs an adversary, and with the time frame, I can defiantly make this, so count me in. No idea what yet, but it will be 72nd, not brave enough for one of those 32nd ones yet. Its currently between a Fokker Dr.1 and an E.III. I am thinking minimal rigging (I ain't that silly)
Mike, surprised you don't have yours yet. I am sure you will like it
Too many models to build, not enough time in a lifetime!!
I will also participate even thou Jul is a lil bit far away so I have no idea a bout the model!
best regards,
Sasho
One thing I'm curious about, and that is, for how many of you will this be your intro to building a WWI aircraft? They can be quite addicting you know.
Interesting that you ask. For me, this will be the first WWI build since one of the very first models I ever made. A 1/72 sopwith camel...when I was 6 years old. So, kinda nostaligic for me, decades later. I'll go with a Fokker D VII.

I'm waiting on my copy of the Feb. issue as well. Really can't wait to see it. I know they usually take a bit longer to get to destinations north of the US border.
I'm interested. I missed that last WWI GB. Sounds great. Thanks!
Thanks for the support PJ!
I think we almost have enough people for a group build!
fox, no problem here. I'm just waiting to get my copy so I can see all the builds.
Check out the latest FSM (Feb. 2014) page 42. Just got my copy and found these shots of the First WWI group build hosted by FSM in March 2013. Congrats to all the members that are included in the spread. Great builds.
Jim
P.S. Sorry, didn't mean to hijack the thread.
Main WIP:
On the Bench: Artesania Latina (aka) Artists in the Latrine 1/75 Bluenose II
I keep hitting "escape", but I'm still here.
Snake..............I have several models that will fit right in. July sounds good as it will give me some breathing space from the other GB I'm currently in so count me in!!
Mike? Jack? Chuck? You guys are in? No way!
Marc
Thanks for the interest guys! If we get a few more people interested I say we have a group build! I'll put a topic over on the armor and ship forum and see if we can get some bites over there.
Count me in!
On the bench:
1/48 Eduard Albatros D.V
1/48 Eduard Sopwith Camel
Jack is correct, I did "The great War" GB way back. And while it was left open so to speak it is rarely visited now. I also agree with Jack that a special GB should be set up for something as notable as 100 years since the start of the war.
I'm all in!
Chris Christenson
I'd like to get in also.
Seeing double is a good thing...when it comes to wings.
WW1 huh? Sure...nothing like feeding a current obsession. You could count me in as well.
Chuck Davis
I'd be in on this one, no doubt about that.
Yes, I think the GB hosted by wingnut (Marc) was left open, no end date, but there should definitely be a special GB for the 100th anniversary.
regards,
Jack
Ok, now I am on the same page aswell LOL
No I was referning the the "great war" GB if I recall it was named??
None the less I am still in.
Theuns, you're right there was a group build feeler in the GB forum. But I think five or so people showed interest including me.
Theuns Just see it now - 1915? not 1918 maybe or am I missing something?

I may not have been clear on the dates I figured since July 28 marks the start of the war it can end November 11 2015 ninety seven years since the war ended. I hope this is a little bit clearer
I think there is on on the go in the GB section, if not I will be in with something. I have a WNW Se5 in the stach and a WNW D-7 on the way that need an excuse to be built :-)
