I had this posted up on the Aircraft forum, and had comletely forgotten to put it up here for you armor guys!
The spirt of this GB would be to see what the modeler can do with their own skills and materials, as opposed to the help of the CNC machine at Eduard or what not.
Below are rules that I copied and pasted from the aircraft forum to save time from typing!
I have been giving it some thought, and I figured it would be fun to have a GB with out all the fancy after market add ons. Just good 'ol skill, with alittle wire and strip styrene, so to speak. Here are basic ground rules, although there is roon for variation.
1. Any scale, any subject.
2. NO AFTER MARKET PARTS!!!! That means no extra PE. No resin bits. No AM injection parts like wheels, props, ect.
3. Scratch building new/replacement parts is acceptable, though, and encouraged!
4. After market decals ARE allowed.
5. Start date Jan. 1st 2015, probably running 8-9 months. But that is up for discussion.
Now a grey area I would like to discuss with participants are the very fancy kits, say like an Eduard Profipack, ProModeler and what not that have PE and bits out of the box. Opinions? Interest? Lets hear it. Looking foward to seeing what all can be done!
