IDF Group Build Mk. II 2010-2011
OK guys it's time we get things (crack'in) that's slang for started. After trying to pass the buck on to my buddy Fantacmet The man that hosted the first IDF GB I thought I would start this next one. Well after looking in to just what some of you IDF fans want in this next GB I feel that a new version should be done.
I think having a full range of subject matters is the right way to go. This mean all types of armor (Armor,APCs,ARVs) +(What-Ifs) and all types of Aircraft +(What- Ifs) Now in the last group build we only had one What-if I hope we have more. I will type the full rules later, but right now lets talk about what will be exceptable and what will not. First no putting down on any ones work, if you don't like it we don't want to hear it (See it typed). Or I'll jump your gut. 
Ok now lets start on some rules.
1. First off any plastic,resin or metal kits that are not prepainted are exceptable. If you have started your project and you want to finish it with in this GB I'll allow it, only is it's not in any primer. You have to do the full prepaint, full paint decal and weathering with in this GB to get your badge. New Rule add-on: Any Builder that had started work in the previous group build and would like to finish there project in this GB can do so., but you are not eligible to receive a new GB badge.(You must clame the original badge from the first GB) For this new GB badge, you must finish a new build for the new badge.
2. Any used of resin and "Scratchbuilding" and or "Kit-Bashing" is a must if you can do or add it.
3. Rules on Armor that is not a what if. If it's real you must beable to produce a photo to back up your build. I would say only if it was rare find., but thin all IDF is rare. So for every build there must be some photo of the real 1:1 vehicle. Armored Tanks,Armoured Recovery Vehicles,Armoured Personnel Vehicles, Softskinns Trucks and small jeep like vehicles. These vehicles can be from WWII types to the present day vehicles.
4. Rules for all types of Aircraft Vehicles same as rule 3. If it's real you must beable to produce a photo to back up your build an so on........ These vehicles as well can be from WWII types to the present day vehicles. AKA(Prop to Jet).
5. Rules on Figures: If it's a "standalone", Realy Person,Commander or perticular Pilots and Soldiers. You will need to post a photo of him or her. If not just post you work and let us know what the figure is, as it relates to a non fictional character (Real Person) or a fictional character (What-if). If any one want's to add figures to there projects that is exceptable but no cross overs. This means no what if tankers or soldiers with real vehicles. This means in both air and land types. Now as for your What-ifs, it's up to you. You can use real or made up tankers and pilots.
6. Rules for all What-Ifs: Rule 1. All plastic,resin or metal kits that are NOT prepainted are exceptable. If you can try and show some of you scratchbuilding work. Othere than these rules any thing go's in the types you choose.
Here's the starting day and ending date. I want to start this thing on May first 2010 and run till the end on December 31 2011. If I need to move that ending date back I will.
Well that it for the rules from my point of view. If you see that my rules aren't what you like, THAN MAN Let me know. Don't keep it to your self Please. Ok for any of you guys that line realy old armor, Israel had wheeled Armor in 1940 here's a site for yah: http://www.warwheels.net/IsraelEarlyWFVgoldman.html
Oh and this is not a rule but just something I'm asking would some of you guys be share your resources with your fellow (MEs)-Miniature Engineers.
Ok I'll start a list of builders by there screen names or fourm names and projects. to take some time and realy think of what you want to start with. Now one thing I will do, I'll keep a link to the old GB as it's full of info that can still be used.
Edit information: From time to time I will need to edit this post. To add or pull rules away. Thanks you FSF-Fine Scale Fourm.
