2015 Messerschmitt Bf 109 Group Build

Oooooh I'd like one like you had Bish with mustang1989 on the flip side! Nice.

Do they offer a 12oz mug?

They had different mugs, this is a 10oz,  but only in this size with the coloured handles and rim. And they didn't have black like that Zazzle mug, which I would have liked. I got mine from here.

But of course its in the UK.

Come on in moose. We'd ba glad to have you.

I would be interested in joining this.  I would have the Academy Bf 109D.  I will use aftermarket resin.  It will be a later in the year as I am just getting back into building.  That and I am in the Reich Defender Night Fighter GB.

Thanks

Sorry brother, the only G-2 decals I have are for "Double Black Chevron" flown by Hauptmann Steinhoff of II./JG52. Interesting scheme IMHO. Doesn't seem to be a lot out there for the G-2.

Nice choice, Joe. I am looking forward to it. If anyone else is looking for decals, please let me know. I would be happy to donate them to a good cause.

Jay

Thanks for that generous offer, Jay!
If you happen to have decals for Marseille's or Wilcke's G-2 I'd be really interested in those, but only ifyou really don't plan on using them...

I was at Boeing's "Museum of Flight" in Seattle last year and forgot I had these pics.

I'd like to join in with my first ever Zvezda, a 1/48th BF-109 F2.

I got you added to the build list, my friend! Mind showing us that EagleCals sheet?

Been waiting all this time for the official signup, then I miss the grand opening by 3 days! span="" id="mce_marker" data-mce-type="bookmark">  <------- Insert malfunctioning party emoticon here

I'd like to join in with my first ever Zvezda, a 1/48th BF-109 F2. No idea on scheme and stuff yet, but I do seem to have a very cool-looking set of EagleCals.

Outstanding! I like all the mug and Stein ideas!

Those designs look very nice, Jack!

I came up with something as well:

It's nothing fancy, but I don't think very complex designs look that good on mugs. This one is intended to go on a black background (wraps around the entire mug). I thought the Eduard Royal Class boxarts are just perfect for something like this, so I used those. I can edit it to be only on one side or for a white mug as well.

The name below the Emil is going to be different for every participant of course and I'd PM everyone who enters this GB his individual design with the correct name on it.

What do you guys think?

I was at Boeing's "Museum of Flight" in Seattle last year and forgot I had these pics. If I had been a member of this forum and was building at the time, I would have taken several more. I also have some of several other aircraft WW2 and WW1

Enjoy.

Oops, a few others slipped in.

Cool stuff with the mugs.  

There was mention of simpler designs, so tried a few things.   As was pointed out, don't want to turn this into a mug design GB, so only included linked images for those interested.

I'd be more than happy to incorporate further ideas and thoughts.  Another idea, combining some elements from both badges?

regards,

Jack

Ooh a "Seidel" (that's what we Austrians call those things). I like that one!

I'd prefer the stein, how much more German can you get?

That mug looks quite good, Tom! It ain't my badge you used though. Jack made that one (and the other is Bish's work).

I was actually thinking of something a bit more "clean" and less colourful to put on the mugs. Beige sounds great (and maybe an alternative version in black).

I found another site, called zazzle.com that gives some more options. I suppose with an agreed upon badge, we all could make our own?

Naturally, I don't want to be court martialed for insubordination, so I once again defer to the Commanding Officers here, Mustang and SS.. I don't want to turn this into a coffee mug GB!

However, one may adjust their beverage of choice to meet, perhaps something like these...

Stein!!

How about this, SS? Just an idea. I think this is your badge? I didn't think you'd mind a little cut and paste, with some tinkering on vista print! Though I think a beige cup may look better?

After getting the mugs for the last 2 FSM GB's, I have been thinking about getting a couple with my favourite builds on, though I think my other half might say I have enough already. But that one looks really nice.

I normally get mine from a company in the UK and I can get them with coloured handles and rims. I know one of the guys in one of those GB's said they could not get them like that over there. What usually happens in those GB's is that Tim comes up with the mug design and PM's it to those who want it and then they can order the mugs from who ever they wish.

This is the last one I got.

On the back is a list of those who entered, but that could be awkward with people joining during the GB.

Coffee mug would be AWESOME! !! The one above looks very cool... I'd be in for one or two.

Tom: I suppose that kit is in 1/32?

Having an official GB mug would be awesome! I could try to come up with a design to put on there (in case we don't use the badges for that).

Joe: Now that's some awe-inspiring scratchbuilding you got going there!

Tom: I suppose that kit is in 1/32?

Handi: That E-7 sounds like a nice addition to the GB. I heard a lot of good things about the Dragon Emils.

Badges look fantastic!   Herman is leaning toward the 1/32 Dragon E-7 offering but will let you know for sure once the little guy makes up his mind

viously, that is up to Stang and SS and it's just a suggestion, but what about something like coffee mugs with the badge on it? Too much trouble? The logistics may be tough, but it would be a nice addition!

Agreed!  And as others have stated, there will be more then 1... and yes, badges are killer! Great effort on both.

I have a feeling this one will be another 5000 post, 200,000K view GB, like the FW one was (that I regrettably missed! argh.) That being said, though the badges are nice, should we expand on that? Obviously, that is up to Stang and SS and it's just a suggestion, but what about something like coffee mugs with the badge on it? Too much trouble? The logistics may be tough, but it would be a nice addition!
