I would enjoy building a Trade Federation Tank I think.

Building a kit from your stash is like cutting a head off a Hydra, two more take it's place.

I did build one before, again, its another that didn't survive. Its a pretty nice kit from what I remember, no major issues and its a nice size, I think its about 1/32nd scale.

I have a 1/72 Millenium Falcon that is partially started.  Probably ~30%, if that's ok to enter.

Wayne, the Revell kit is the best AT-AT kit available. Of course, the Revell one is from the 2000s and the original MPC kits are from the late 70-early 80s and made by a company renowned for their soft plastic and detail.

hey ROB good to know. thanks.

on a totally unrelated note, if i drove an M60 over a typical AT mine, is it possible the road wheel arm would be only slightly damaged? lost a 1/72 road wheel and am looking at alternate plans.

It's the Anigrand resin kit. I believe they only made 200 of them quite a while back. Believe me, you don't wanna know what those things are selling for...

The scale is quite impressive: 1/2256. It scales out at 71cm x 46cm.

MY LHS' owner is going to help me out a bit with constructing a sturdy base and getting all the resin parts cleaned up and bent back to their correct shape. Hhe has far more experience than me in that regard...

Here's a link to a pretty nice looking build of it:

www.therpf.com/.../anigrand-star-destroyer-122027

Hey, I happen to have the Finemolds 1/144 Millenium Falcon in my stash. In relation to SchattenSparten, 1/2256 is the scale of the Revell Venator-class "Republic Star Destroyer" kit. Most of the Resin kits out there are in either 1/2256 or 1/4422( ish-- i don't recall the exact scale) to fit with the Revell kit or the old AMT/ERTL Star Destroyer. Cool, huh? I might be down to break out my Falcon for this GB. Klik

I will be putting up the build thread for this next weekend. I will go through the feeler and take entries from there and add to the roster. Please let you know if you change your mind on your entry. And of course, entry's can be added and changed once the GB is up and running.

Don't put me down just yet. I'll have to see how next year turns out regarding my bench time before I know whether I can build that Star Destroyer or not.
