Another great GB Darson...i really want in but its going to get really busy for me when we really start taking the house apart for our move across the country...at least i posted something and can now follow the great stuff that is bound to go down here...good luck chaps...
If i do get in it will be either a 1/48 Tamiya Spit 1 or Hasegawa 109E 4/7...
Daywalker Sorry Mike! I looked at the lineup when I signed on, and the RAF looked a bit outnumbered so I went that way this time. 'Sides, don't have a Hurricane in the case! I'll be looking forward to your 109, and to building 190's with you soon.

...but having the RAF outnumbered is historically accurate, and tru to the theme of the build!!
On the bench: Airfix 1/72 Wildcat; Airfix 1/72 Vampire T11; Airfix 1/72 Fouga Magister

True! Plus saves me from the old "sheez, I wish my Emil would have turned out as nice as Franks!" He's giving me an inferiority complex.

LOL, ya right Mike!
Your 109's are some of the finest I have seen bar none.

B17 pilot – great! I need all the help I can get, so you go first lol I have a few WIPs/GBs to complete before tackling my little 109 squadron, 3 different Emils for 3 different GBs.
I'd like to do a 1/72 Matchbox Lysander, but I could use some help with appropriate markings.
I'd really like to do an AIr Sea Rescue Lysander but not sure which squadrons did this or if they had special markings. Obviously I have some research ahead of me, but thats ok, I still have to find a kit too.
Darren sign me up as a definate would you mate......Been looking forward to another BoB GB having missed the last couple...
I'll be building Dragons 1/32 Me 110 C series probably a machine from 3staffel ZG 26 with the white noses and spinners......
Jules no problems mate you are in and that 110 with a white should look cool.
Boy I tell you, looking at your sig sure brings back some memories, that Aussie GB in 2004 was the first build I did after joining the forum, sigh.
Aaronw I might be able to help out a little with your research, let me get back to you ok.
Dave if you want in you know you are always welcome, just post back here if time allows due to your move.
Cheers
Blimey!!! Out-numbered!??! It's what we call a target rich environment!! That will be the day when it doesn't take five huns to match up against one of the queen's finest!
Vance- after I nail the lizard's Do-17 let's hit the pub and I'll buy you a pint- 1/48 scale that is
"I dream in fire but work in clay." -Arthur Machen
Yeah i know what you mean Darren, that was my first GB as well...2004 hard to believe eh...
I chose the 110 not only for it's white nose but also for it's mottled camo, the pic i have looks like RLM 70 and 71 upper which is mottled over RLM 65, It's will be my first time building out of 48 scale, looking forward to it
BTW i never did post up pics of my last GB's BoG ME 262 1/48 tamiya stormbird, Atlantic GB, Revells old smaller type VIIc U-boat and Allied aces GB 1/48 tamiya SpitV with the donald duck on it....I'll get around to that soon........
Jules...
Darren, I still have the Hase Hurri I built for that first GB sitting on the shelf.
Put me & my 1/32 Stuka on the roster please.
Karl
Currently on the bench: AZ Models 1/72 Mig 17PF
Well, I see most of the usual suspects are here. Darren, I'm officially tossing my hat into the ring with ICM's divine scale (1/72) 109E-3 in Heinz Bar's markings. A provisional Airfix Defiant Mk. I is also in the wings. I don't normally build the losers and this will give my Spit and Hurri from the 08 Weekend build something to shoot at. Was going to add the the Airfix Fulmar, but the markings are for a later period in the war. The ICM kit doesn't look too bad. There's some flash, but not much.
Buddy- Those who say there are no stupid questions have never worked in customer service.
SWEET!!!
Darren, please update me on the roster, I'm gonna build the Hasegawa 1/72 Heinkel He111P. First time building one of these and I'm really looking forward to it, this is going to be a great GB.
Cheers...
Mike
Mike no problemo I will update the roster with your build. Those Hase He-111s are supposed to be really nice kits although I would probably get myself the Eduard pre-cut masks if I were you.
Buddy great choice that's two Heinz Bar 109s we've got now one in 48th scale and one in "cough" old man "cough" scale
Mike I love the banner you've put together but this is actually the fourth BoB GB we've had here. BTW where did you get that image from it's great?
Darren- Can you change my build to a 1/48 Tamiya Spitfire Mk.I? I can't seem to find my Hurricane anywhere.
Daywalker I can't seem to find my Hurricane anywhere.
I can't seem to find my Hurricane anywhere.
Say it ain't so!!!!
LOL, I really cannot find it! Guess the stash is a little too big. 'Sides, I have been wanting to build another Spitfire Mk.I from 234 Sqn to match the ones in the print hanging in my workshop. I built AZ*N last year, gonna build AZ*P this year!
Where's that pesky little turtle....
Z
LOL Carlos, everytime you mention that pesky turtle I think of cecil turtle from the Bugs Bunny cartoons with the jet pack under the shell!!!! LMAO put 'Rabbit Transit' in the search on You tube! I love Bugs Bunny, what can I say?
darson Mike I love the banner you've put together but this is actually the fourth BoB GB we've had here. BTW where did you get that image from it's great? Cheers
Darren,
As fate would have it I'm actually running a BoB GB over at ARC at the same time we're doing this one, the banner is actually one I made for that one, we're only up to #2 over there. I think I got the image off of a flight sim screenshot art website (don't remember which one), anytime I see something interesting I grab it for making GB banners.
Daywalker Darren- Can you change my build to a 1/48 Tamiya Spitfire Mk.I? I can't seem to find my Hurricane anywhere.
It's a sign from the modeling Gods, they want you to build a 109!!!
JMart B17 pilot – great! I need all the help I can get, so you go first lol I have a few WIPs/GBs to complete before tackling my little 109 squadron, 3 different Emils for 3 different GBs.
I too have a couple of builds to finish before I start this one so you might start before me, lol. I have a Kubelwagon in 1/48 that I thought about using with the 109 in a mini-diorama.
SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
None of you please tell Carsanab that that the pesky turtle is high in the sky preparing to dive out of the sun and administer a colossal bollocking on his radioactive green bum.............
Also I am recruiting an army of Japanese school girls to even up his advantage in elves....
On a slightly more serious note I'm probably going with New Zealand pilot Alan Deere's Spit. Interesting life story, he had NINE spits shot out from under him.
Gamera SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! None of you please tell Carsanab that that the pesky turtle is high in the sky preparing to dive out of the sun and administer a colossal bollocking on his radioactive green bum............. Also I am recruiting an army of Japanese school girls to even up his advantage in elves....
I'll take the schoolgirls over the elves anyday!!! Who is that in the pic!!??
Darren, Mate your gonna have to change my build as well....Try as i may i can't seem to justify spending that much to SWMBO on on a single model so can you please put me down for the Eduard BF 110 in 48 scale.............
Darren, Put me down as an Academy 1/72 '109 E-4. Thought I had a 48 scale 109 turns out it was an G-14, just a little off in dates, so I picked up this cute little thing instead.
Andrew
Simpilot- I'm not totally sure who she is, I did a Google search for pictures and saved a bunch of small ones to use as avatars.
I think though she's Steven Stegal's daughter who was in several of the '00s Gamera films. I don't remember her acting name. Lovely girl but sadly she inherited her acting skill from her dad (little or no acting talent). I wouldn't say it to her face since I'm not sure if she inherited her dad's butt-kicking skills as well.
OK, let's see some of your past BoB subjects here are two that I built for the last BoB GB we did here:
1/72 Monogram Do 17Z-2
and a 1/72 Tamiya Bf 109E-3:
