P-40 GB feeler
Posted by the real red baron on Saturday, January 21, 2012 2:54 AM

I've seen a number of group build based on certain aircraft like the Spitfire and P-47.

Would anyone be interested in a P-40 group build?

Any varient of P-40, any nations, what ifs, as long as its a P-40.

dates have not been organised yet.

I'd like to join with Monogram's P-40B 1/48 kit.  Probably will do a Flying Tigers version.

I also have the Trumpeter 1/32 P-40B and would be interested in this.

I'm also in on two other GBs right now though so it would take me a bit to get it completed.

Heh. I was actually thinking of maybe following up P-47 with a P-40 GB next year. Of course I'm interested, but I've got several GB commitments and planned projects ahead in line.

I would be very interested...as long as the finish date is at least six months from now. I have an Academy 1/48 P-40C that I've been sitting on for a while.

Maybe a kickoff in June? I've got Hasegawa's P-40E in 1/48 and 1/32 and want to knock them out so I have an excuse to pick up the P-40N.

Sure, we can start in June.

Start date June 1st.

Should the group build run for 6 or 12 months?

There's a fabric & balsa wood P-40 at my LHS that I've been keeping an eye on.

I've got a badge it's from a WWII propaganda art pic (not photo).

I vote for 6 months.

I also am attempting to post some photos of a P-40 I did not too long ago as a a gift for my nephew. Please forgive me if I screw this up. I am doing it mostly to practice posting images to the forum.

Ww2 psycho - well I am hosting another GB at the moment… well it depends on what is preferred. I could go six months then if people want 12 months then I can extend it.

Kirby - click on the icon that looks like a roll of tape then paste the URL link in there click insert then you have you pic, make sure it is a URL link though.

Only reason I ask for 12 months is I have the P-47 GB, 1942 GB, Marines in the Pacific GB, Spitfire GB and maybe one more I cant remember.

Okay, I guess I can make it 12 months.

Looks great Kirby, I'll have to get a 1:48 P-40 sometime.

Owl - glad to have you aboard! Smile
