Timmy, according to Wikipedia the F-61 was used as a long range, all weather day/night interceptor after the war.  One could argue that it also did this during WWII also.

Sounds good

Trabi

Well after Photobucket incident I lost my interest along my pictures to "Too little, too late gb" so propably it´s time to take part to another.

 

I would like to join with this:

 

 

Airfix Angel Interceptor from Captain Scarlet. Looks like it needs bit scratch build.

I hope this gb will last atleast 6 months (hopefully more), that I´m able to finish this.

 

Trabi,

That is a cool looking kit... I look forward to seeing this one.

Not that I'm trying to be a pain in the butt, however I'm currently working on a P-61 night fighter. Would this count as an Interceptor?

If so I have only got a little paint on it and nothing glued yet so is that acceptable?

 Dont worry about the thumbprint, paint it Rust , and call it "Battle Damage"

It's all up to you guys and as long as there is someone besides me I'll keep it going.  

68GT,

Sir, keep this GB going....even if it's just 3 of you so what. It will still be a fun and enjoyable GB. I plan on joining, but I have 2 other GB's to complete first then I'll be joining this one. Don't worry about how many join. Wink

P.S. - Great job on the GB badges

That Angle Interceptor looks interesting!  I say it will last till whenever cause my last attempt at a GB went nowhere.  It's all up to you guys and as long as there is someone besides me I'll keep it going.  

I've been using PostImage for photo hosting with good results.

Add me please.  Start with a 1/48 Hasegawa F-22A.  OOB.  If this runs 6 months or more, I may add a Tomcat of some sort too.   Need to get motivated again in prep for the Weekend Madness builds.  Probably wont get out of the gates until after next weekends camping trip, but that will give me time to get the bench cleared off and ready to go.

Good Luck everyone.
