German S- or E-Boat groupbuild ???
Posted by DanCooper on Friday, March 24, 2006 11:16 AM
A couple of months ago I ordered Airfix's German E-Boat (still hasn't arrived though), and on the ships forum I noticed that a couple of others have this kit or have ordered it as well.
So I was wondering if there would be enough interest to make it a GB, and to reach more people I would allow Revell's S-Boat as well.

Dan - would it be permissible to use my S-boot in this and another GB simultaneously?  I am slated for an  S-100 for the Atlantic GB and as they are such long builds (The Revell S-boats) I don't think I could fit in another one with all the other builds I have going on.

Actually if this runs long enough I would hope Revell's new release of the S-100 with rear mounted, quad 40mm Bofors would come out... that would be nice!!!

Sure, I would allow cross-builds, even with other forea, if I find enough people to start this one Smile [:)]

cool....  I know at least one other person building an S-boat right now... maybe he will feel like doing another?  Hope this one takes off!

Hey guys,

I'd love to jump in but I'm nearly finished with my Schnellboat... Well, not yet, I still have a lot of small things to do on that kit (like replacing the props).

You can find a link to my album below.

Cheers, it's a great kit!

Finally my kit has arrived, so, if people are still interested in this GB, I would say the start could be on October 1st, running till September 30th 2007.

Is that alright for you, guys ?

I decided to broaden the horizons and change this S-boat GB to a Kriegsmarine GB, so we have now officialy move here.
