                        Alright Mr. Panzerwulff, though my GB track record has been absolutely dismal. I've finished with my studies (temporarily) and am now ready to fully commit to and actually finish a GB.

                        I have a 1/35 scale Accurate Armour Land Rover Defender XD Wolf that I would love to finally get to building. Put me down for that and may God help me to really finish!

                        LOL - I can relate Eric.  This GB will help me give me some focus on getting a kit done in some reasonable amount of time!

                        Count me in!  Although my GB track record is abysmal, I will attempt a relatively easy kit.  Here's my choice:

                        Tamiya's old LRDG Chevy CWT 30 with the following additions:

                        - resin wheels from Tank workshop

                        -eduard PE set

                        -verlinden WWII British vehicle accessories kit and Tamiya's allied vehicle accessories for the stowage.

                        - if I have time, I'll paint up a couple of Legend productions SAS figures (basically the same as LRDG guys).

                        All of this has beeen sitting on my bench for a couple of months just waiting for the right occasion!

                        This should motivate me to get my M1A2 off the bench in time for the Sept. 16 start date.  Let me know what you think.

                        PannzerWulff,

                         I just came back from the LHS and I picked up a neat little model for the build.

                        Italeri 1/35 Opel Maultier with Flak 38. I never built an Italeri model yet and it was on a list of good kits they produce I saw it and thought it would be fun for this GB. OK?

                        Thanks

                        Zip

                        Hey wulf, I believe I will be doing a German car, i'm looking foward to this build as there is ejector pin marks in viewable areas of detail.

                        Hey Will, I've noticed your already showin' the 'Wheeled Warriors' badge. I thought you only get the badge after you complete the build! Am I missin' somethin' here! Confused [%-)]

                        Also, do we post pics of our 'in progress' builds?! Big Smile [:D]

                        Is that the rule, I was under the impression you could wear the badge, although you have to remove it if you do not complete the GB ?, I've seen people wearing badges before their comlpleted. We will find out soon and if i'm wrong i'll remove the badge ASAP.

                        Will

                        Right click on the badge, then select "Copy Shortcut". Paste that into your signature, then add [ I M G ] to the front and [ / I M G ] to the back(without the spaces of course). See all my badges if you don't believe me.
