I'm already committed to a few GB's, but the long run time of this GB has me saying "why the heck not", so count me in with a Tamiya 1/48 Bf109E-3.

ps - might be a good idea to post a roster of the entrants with their respective entries in your opening post.

I'll join, but only if I manage to pick up a Monogram Me109E kit...  Been hunting one for a couple years, but keep getting outbid on Ebay...

Well hopefully you manage to find one, would be great to see you build up a nice 109!

Just added the alternate tag for those who dont completed their models before the end of the group build. Looks like there will be many nice 109s!

Oh yes. 

Mark me down as a definite with a 1/48 Airfix 109E-3. I already know the markings I'm going to be doing, but don't want to share them just yet.

Might try for the Zvezda 109F-2 or one of my Cyber-Hobby 109E-4s if I can get around and find markings I like.

 

 

Now if I get a vote Smile.................... I'd like you to do the Zvezda kit. I got it in my stash and it looks very detailed with lots of fidly bits to boot!

 

 

The Zvezda kit does look phenomenal. If it goes together anything like their La-5 it'll be a total treat. BUT...I'm having a rough time finding markings I 1) like and 2) think I can reproduce.

That and the markings for the E-3 are only for the E-3. It was one of those "awesome markings, now buy kit" situations.

Hmmm, yes hate when that happens lol!

Count me in 1/48 Airfix Emil in BoB markings to be determined. Never built one of these. I'll have color questions.

Well looks like this should be a good one. On a side note for future reference, send me a message once you complete your build so I can post the finished picture in the first post. I made a quick tag for the group build but if you make one let me know so I can add it to the list. Was thinking of tweaking the normal routine here by you keep the normal tag while building and completion of the group build but instead of removing the tag if you dont complete the build in time you would just replace the tag with one I can make of a crashed 109. 

Let me know what you think. Until then, lets see those WIP photos on 1/09!

Most likely I'll be in.

Probably with a Airfix 1:72 G-6. Painted as a 'what if'. What if he red baron made it too WWII. So it's going to be painted red.

Sounds good. I have a few in  my stash that need to get built! I just started on the P-47 GB, Doogsatx put out. Will be good to get in on this once I get a few P-47's built.

Put me down for a 1/32 Hasegawa BF109G-14 'JG5'?
