1 SEP 11 is go time.....Looking forward to it, still no clue as to what I will build.  It's only been about 15 years since my last dio..........Tongue Tied  We shall see.....this calls for some quality reflective time looking through 'the stash...'

2022 New Year's Resolution:  Enter 1 group build and COMPLETE a build this year!!  Why Photobucket did you rob me of my one Group Build Badge???  Must be part of the strong anti-Monogram cartel!!!

Absolutely, the WIP shots offer a lot of info, and new ideas, I will just apologize in advance for my lack of camera skills, and my lack of a camera :) but I am sure I can borrow one somewhere for this Yes

Hans, ....  this GB really piques my interest in both participating and in actually making a dio again, as the last one I made was back in..  '82 when I made a 1/72 dio of the invasion of France (from the German POV) for my middle school French class.   Call me a noob in so far as dio's are concerned.

I have an idea that's been kicking around my head for a while, I just might like to try it out here.... just to be clear on the rules thus far-

* finished and started kits are OK, but the base must be started after the jump-off date (tomorrow)?  I've got Mystery Item 1 almost finished and 2 more Mystery Items that are in the build stages that go with, and are related to, Item 1.   The figures I want may take some sourcing/god-forbid-scratchbuilding to acquire though...

*11"x14" or mostly thereabouts.  This could be an issue with my Great Idea, but I haven't physcially laid anything out yet, so who knows....

*amalgamated rules from AMPS and IPMS and Hans hisself has final say.  

*229 day run (this should be a full year please- IMO all this 229 stuff is a little old and altogether not that funny)

If you and everyone else in this GB can handle having a loose cannon in the room, I'm IN.Stick out tongue

I would like to do this. I'm a little confused about the base size though. Last I read it sounded like 36" square max. Need to know to design the thing. I'm looking at about 24" or so each side. Is that ok?

Also, where's the roster?

I'll do a (deleted) on the (deleted) at (deleted), being inspected by (deleted).

1/72 of course.
