Hey Bish put me down for:

1/48th Tamiya F4U-1D Corsair with Rising Decals set for New Zealand NZ5416 'Tutae Wera'

* New Zealand F4U though not the exact aircraft I'm modeling.

Hey Bish I’m in with an academy hawker hunter in 1/48th . I was surfing the web and found the Kuwait gained its independence from Britain in 1961 if that’s right that’s what I’m building if not I’ll keep looking 

HI Bish,

I'm in, here's my first choice: Singapore Air Force X-Wing

If I can't find the decals, I will go for one of my RAAF stash:

S******e

Vengeance

Beaufort

Winjeel

Wessex

But it will be some time as I have to finish 3 or 4 other GBs first, so I will come in at the last moment as per normal.

It did, but like the other nations in that region it has never been a member of the Commonwealth, so i am afraid kuwait would not count. Kuwait was a protectorate and never a British colony.

I wasn't expecting an X-Wing, but for the shear novelty factor, its in. I like it.

Whats the kit.

Can I do a WIF Canadian Apache?

Cdn Colin

Can I do a WIF Canadian Apache?

 

Well, seeing as i am accepting an X-Wing, i can hardly say no .

Which kit and scale. Do you plan on sticking to the US colour or are you going to make up your own scheme.

G, really looking forward to that, those tamiya Corsair are nice in any scale. And i do like those NZ markings.

ok a Rhodesian hunter (1965)

Perfect, will add it to the list.

Count me in, then.  I'll be doing it up in the 2-tone camoflauge typical of current Canadian helicopters.

I like the sound of that. Which kit and scale?

1:48 Monogram.  With leftover Belcher Bits decals from my CH-113 build.

Bish, I have an old kit in the ole stash of an old subject, Matchbox Siskin IIIA in 1/72 scale:

The RCAF flew this type from 1926 until 1939 when they were replaced with the Hawker Hurricane.  Of special note, in 1929 an aerobatic team of three aircraft was formed. 

regards,

Jack

Bish - I’m in on this one!  Although, I don’t have any ideas yet.  Thank you for hosting.  

Bish-Same as Chad-I'm in-just not not sure with what...and thanks for another interesting topic for a GB.

yes, Yes, YES ! Another great topic for a GB Bish.

There are a lot of subjects I want to do, but for now mark me down for an Airfix Red Arrows BAe Hawk in 1/72 please. There is some possibility that tis will be followed or replaced with a 1/32 version of the same aircraft.

Cheers

Tony

I have an Airfix Harrier I've been waiting to build.

Hey Bish,

I don’t know, is it okay to enter the same kit in two different group builds at once?  I just entered into the Shelf of Doom 2018 build with my 1:72 scale BAe Hawk 200, but then I also notice that it fits the criteria for this goup build as well.  If so, I’d like to enter it.  If not, that’s cool, I can look through my stash and find something else that fits...

Thanks will add it to the roster. And as in keeping with Candian practice, i'll designate it as a CAH-64.

AA, yep, cross overs are fine. How far along is the kit.

Rob, wil be nice to see anotehr of those Airfix Harriers. Which scale and variant is yours.

Guys, got the roster updated, great to see you all on board.

Sorry, double post, internet issues...

No worries AA, just thought it might have ben started as you have in in the other GB. Looking forward to seeing that one.

You know I'm in!!!!!  Not sure what I'll do yet, but I'm in for sure!

Rob, wil be nice to see anotehr of those Airfix Harriers. Which scale and variant is yours.

I will have to look. Other than a ginormous Airfix Harrier I built in the 80s and the 1/72 scale Matchbox Harrier I built in the 70s, I know nothing about the plane other than they came with optional USMC markings. The one I plan on building is a smaller one so I guess it is 1/72 and the kit comes with some tube cement, plastic paint tubs and cheap paint brush. I got it at a thrift shop for around $5.

The kit has to use RAF type markings, correct?
