Careful guys, don't let them figures get away, they will cause havoc in the office.

I like the badge, going for the second option I think.

I'm ready to get started on my Halcyon Judge Dredd kit. The box has taken a beating over the last 19 years. I bought the kit in London on a trip in 1994, so this group build is the perfect excuse to build it. One question though: Is Dredd a hero or villain?

Best Dredd face:

Parts is parts:

A face only a mother could love — and the figure ain't too pretty neither!

Cheers, Aaron

Here's Conan!

Yep, that's a big box!

And a super-heavy base for a ...

... super big fig.

We are off and running!

The group badges are now available for viewing on the front page along with the roster list. Hope you like 'em!

Yay, I'm ready! I jumped the gun a little- I'd partially painted Picard before and hated how it came out so I stripped the paint off him the other week.

Definitely looking forward to this one as well. It's great to see the new faces along with the steadfast group from the WWI build. I'll be tuning in right away to see you guys get started, but my build will have to begin after my WnW D.VII is complete for Bish's Gift GB. All that remains is the prop (simple) and the decaling of the upper wing (not so simple - I'm sure Tim & Aaron can attest to that. I counted 75 decals for it. Yikes!)

Awesome!

Yeah, with the rib tape, the little placards, and other fiddly little decals, they are time consuming. On the other hand, they look sharp when they're all done.

No worries, Jack. She arrives when she arrives.

I've still no news on my pre-order of Psylocke.  On other sites they  list dates ranging from October right through to January.  If I don't hear anything in the next month or so, will have to come up with a plan B.

Jack

There's app.s for that!

My daughter spent the summer in Europe and I had it all set up on my iPhone.

Central time, Bish! Central time!

Yeah, I hate to be Wisconsin-centric, but, it's where I'm at. Although, if I could convince the company to get me a bank of clocks ...

I'm looking forward to the start, too...although unlike the WW1 Group Build, I won't be chopping plastic at midnight in celebration.  I too hope to garner some tips and inspiration before jumping in.

Can't wait to see the badge and the vlogs!

Looking forward to this. I will try and keep up with the Vlogs this time.

By the way, its now 20.30 here. Do I get a head start.

Only joking, i'll be tucked up in bed by Midnight and I am hoping to pick up some tips before I get going.

Holy wow!

We're looking at less than 10 hours before it's go-time!

Some updates from our end: In short, we're SUPER busy. We're working on a lot of extra projects right now (no, I can't give any hints, but things are in the pipeline), so it's been affecting how much Aaron and I have been cheerleading. It's also affected the Art department and pushed back the group build badge design. Believe me, I just was over there stomping around and HARRUMPHING and it is on its way. We'll unveil it as soon as we can.

GMorrison - Heck yeah! Capt. Nemo totally fits the bill.

So, that's 18 of us, with a couple of new faces and plenty of vets from the WWI Aeroplane Group Build. If you know anyone else who wants in on this, tell 'em to climb on now, cuz we're closing the doors at midnight tonight.

Also, Aaron and I plan to do a series of vlogs like we did for the WWI GB. If you have any suggestions for how we might make them better, PM us.

OK I cannot find enough to put together Allan Quatermain.

I would like to enter with the Monsters-in-Motion 1/6 Captain Nemo.

I hope that meets the criteria and will put off buying it ($$yikes!) until it gets green lighted.

I think it fit's the bill. I'll put you down for it.

Cheers, Aaron

PS Only 4 days to launch!

Though we do still seem to be missing something

We're on it.

Honestly.

We are.

Would I lie to you? 

Looking forward to the off with this. I am going to do my Darth between other builds, bt I hope to make an early start to see if I am get those legs correct.

Though we do still seem to be missing something

Holy cow! We're up to 18 onboard for the group build!

Only five days to go. <biting nails furiously in anticipation>

That's a fun kit Jibber. I built one a couple of years ago.

Guys, It's just a week until the build starts. I can't wait to crack this open and get started:

There's crime in Mega-City One that needs dealing with.

Cheers, Aaron

Correction, Robby is in 1/12 scale.

Correction made. Thanks for the note and welcome aboard!

Tim I love the theme of this build, would you be so kind as to include Robby the Robot from Forbidden Planet by Polar Lights in 1/8 for me. I think his likeness has been used since the 50's in many different types of media and we couldn't let a hero like this not be represented.  Thanks

Jibber,

Welcome! You're in!

Great link, Jack. Thanks!

Count me in for a Screamin 1/6 Han Solo.

You're in! Welcome to the group build!

Count me in for a Screamin 1/6 Han Solo.

Gamara, Marc and Tim, thanks kindly for that, good to hear you like the results.

If anyone is looking for some ideas for skin tone paints in the Vallejo brand, I found this list over at ColoradoMiniatures:

Specifically, I used  Faces #1b(Jaume Ortiz) but did not use the suggested wash.
