Nice!  Put me down for the same, 1/48 Tamiya He 219 Uhu.  Cool [8D]  I won't be able to get to it though for several months due to so many other commitments, but I would love to do the He 219 soon.  Smile [:)]

Thanks!

That's a very nice pic! I like it so why not? Regarding your question. Unsure what you're after, but I guess Gimp or Photoshop or even paint will do. Most badges seems to bee hosted on photobucket or simular, but I can host it on my webhotel.

I might be interested, put me down for now as I'm not sure how much time I'll have.  

I have the 1:72 Heller Me262 b2 nightfighter two seater. 

I might be able to get to it by 2008, I'm getting booked up with GBs pretty quick.

Ok, sorry to hear, I hope you can get it fixed soon.

It's always nice to get nice kits in the mail. I got a F-16 a while ago which also have to wait until I got some of the GB builds done.

I was going to take a break from the Group build scene, but I can't resist this one.  Was just thinking a month ago that this subject would make a great group build.  Not sure what subject I'm going to do, but count me in.  I'll let you know in the next week or so.

 Also - Azgaron, check your email for the E.E. Lightning instructions.

Yeti,

Found my subject.  Put me down for a Bf-109D-1 from 11.(Nacht)/JG2.  This was a very early German night fighter unit that flew out of Denmark and Norway in early 1940.  Found a neat profile of a D-1 in NachtJaeger Vol 1 of the Luftwaffe Colours series that I really liked.  I'm going to use the 1/48th Academy kit with all its noted flaws simply because I already have it in the stash.  Is there a build start date, or has it already started?

Nice, it's always good to have a working computer. Good luck with the badge!

Hopefully I can get started this weekend. I only need to borrow a decent camera.

Hi to all, I have a He-219, Tamiya of course, to do by next Feburary. As well I am doing an aircraft carrier, Ju-288(almost finished), a really dodgy Acadamey 1/72 F-104, 1/48 Mig-29, and perhaps Mig-25. Looks like the 219 for the group build is on!!

PS, could someone help me in how to put a badge or logo on my replies, I am not that good with these things!!

traveller,

To add a badge, you right-click on the one you want, choose properties, copy the URL and then go to "Update Profile" and paste the URL between img /img in your signature. Wasn't sure how to write things without the board reacting, but you have to add [] bracket around the img and /img command.

I hope I explained it good enough Smile [:)]

Good job on the cockpit!

Perhaps I can do the badge, if I can use the pic you suggested.

Here is the first badge test.

Is it good enough? or should I try something else?
