Probably USAF, I haven't really done a Vietnam era camo scheme before, so this should be interesting.  I hope I don't regret it lol.

Banthafodder,

Group builds are easy peasy, exception maybe the Weekend GB if you plan poorly.  I'm honored to have this little group build be your first.  Your A-37 is most welcome.  Any idea on the markings?

I'd like to jump in with a couple of builds. First will be Revell's 1/48 F-15E and next will be Accurate Minatures 1/48 SBD-3. The SDB is the Coral Sea boxing so I'll probably get to it around April closer to the anniversary of the battle.

Alright guys, got you on the list.  This is an auspicisious start indeed, although I was hoping Bish would step out of his comfort zone and do a bomb laden Spit.Big Smile

 

 

 

You have more chance of me standing on my head in a Tu-Tu singing La Marseillaise.

 

 

 

I'd pay good money to see that. How about the rest of you?

 

I'd even print and sell the tickets for that show.  Would be a world wide event.   GRIN.

May join in with a crossover, depends on what falls out of the sleigh on the Santa GB.

Charles,

Got your build updated.

Going to go ahead and throw my hat into the ring.  My first build will be a 1/72 Hasegawa Mi-24 Hind D I started some 12 years ago.  Markings will be the 51st Helicopter Regiment Aerobatic Display Team of the Czech AF.
