Hangar Queens sounds like a good GB or maybe "Escape from the Shelf of Doom"

Japanese Group Build V

RULES

*Start Date January 1st, 2016

*End Date December 31st, 2016

*Japanese subjects which I'll define as operating under the Japanese flag, aka a captured P-40 flown by a Japanese pilot would be kosher.

*Cross-overs are welcome

*Pre-started are fine as long as they're under 10-20% of finishing (light assembly)

*Any 'roll-over' subjects from Part IV are welcome

And most important have fun guys and gals!

You think of a good name and I'm game. I'll even host it also if nobody bites.  Escape From the Shelf of Doom sounds like a good one.

The 2015 "Red Hot and Rollin' " Automotive Group Build

 For those of you who know me, I usually stick to aircraft subjects but have recently been bitten by the automotive bug. So I figured , why not run an automotive GB for a change? Raven728will be co-hosting this group build with me so any questions you have pertaining to this GB can be asked of either one of us.

The guidelines are:

  • It will run from January 1st until December 31st 2014.

You can enter models in any stage of completion, as long as they are around the 50% completed stage.

Crossovers are welcome to join.

Any scale, anything automotive but no military vehicles here please. Only street type cars and trucks.

Aftermarket items are allowed. The sky is the limit!

Please share progress and pictures as you build.

You can enter at any time within the one year group build time frame

And finally as my usual final rule/ guideline: Be social, encouraging and have fun!

 

 

Thought I'd extend this one through the 2016 year as it was pretty popular last year. Get your kits fellas and let's go! Wink

WHO NEEDS ENGINES ?  The 2017 GLIDER GROUP BUILD. Angel

Its been a few years since I hosted a group build and I feel the need.  Hope the early posting gives people plenty of time to come up with a subject (I also hope there is enough interest !)

Run time- January 2017 through to December 2017.

Anything that did some of its flying unpowered will qualify.  (So a Me 163 would qualify, as would a guided bomb which glides to target)

Some subjects to whet your appetite:

DFS 230

Gotha GO 242 & 244

Me 321

Ju 322

Kokusai Ku 7 & Ku 8

antonov A-7

Horsa

Hotspur

Waco

and of course, anything civilian pre- or post WW2. Revell LS8-A and LS8-T, ASK-21 , Due Discus spring to mind.

As to what is out there model-wise, there is still 8 months to seek out and buy !Welcome Sign

Hey Wirraway!

Great idea for a build! I really like the pre WWII gliders. I am thinking of the Planet Models kits for this.

I learned to fly from a German club and my instructor offered to build a Grunau Baby with me. I wish now I had had the time to do this!!

Submarine Warfare Group Build 2016 - 2017

1) GB begins on 1 Aug 2016 and will run for 12 months. End date being 31 July 2017

2) Any submarine related subjects are welcome wither sea or air, any era. Anything form Bushnell’s Turtle to the Virginia. From the earliest air search and surface search to modern anti-sub assets.

3) Crossovers OK, and consider doing a separate WIP thread in the appropriate forum so others who are not following the GB can enjoy your fine work.

4) Any amount of AM, PE, scratchbuilding or number of entries you desire.

5) Have some fun, this is not a contest.

6) Several badges are available for completing a build if desired.

7) CodyJ will be co-host.
