Waiting for 1 January. Really need some motivation.

That looks bad A$$ right there knox. Looking forward to seeing you build that one.

Got you aded knox.

The roster has been updated, if i have missed anyone or anythign is incorrect, please let me know.

 There are some real masters of the craft in this group build, but I’m still excited to try.  These are my two entries, and if I haven’t embarrassed myself too much, maybe more.  

Thanks Bish.

Look forward to seeing that Joe, nice looking resin set there.

Picked this up for this build today....

An Aires cockpit and wheel well detail up set. I won't be going too awful crazy with this build but I do at least want some detail. I'll be working mostly on my painting/ weathering skills on this one anyhow.

Alright Martin....It's been forever since I've started an aircraft model.....count me in with this one.....

Maybe I'll get a chance here to redeem myself. lol

The Spitfire is an early ICM kit and they had a lot of molding issues early on.  I built the Mark XVI and it's very nice when done but it took 2 or 3 kits to get there.  They were luckily very cheap at the time.  I don't have the 109 F-2 but it is 7 or 8 years newer so perhaps it is better.  The later releases of the Spitfire are better than the first ones, I've heard.

I'm in.  I've got three unbuilt Bf-109 kits; I don't kniw if I will get them all built, but I'll start out with my ICM Bf-109F-2 kit.  Which leads me to a question: does anyone know if this ICM kit is similar to their Spitfire Mk. IX kit?  I just built one of those and was very frustrated.  It had a nicely detailed Merlin engine that you could build into the plane, BUT if you wanted the fuselage closed up (i.e., the engine access panels NOT opened up) you had to leave the engine out!  There was no way you could close it up with the engine installed, even though the instructions showed otherwise.  In talking to other modelers who had already built the same kit, they said that even though it was not in the instructions, that it was fairly common knowledge (news to me!) that you couldn't install the engine unless you wanted the plane opened up.

   I see that this kit has a full Daimler 601 V-12 engine, so I was wondering if it was going to have the same issue as the Spit?

LOL!  Even more reason to do it in this scheme!!!! Thanks Bish!

Apparently it was only flown once like this, Spate was not to happy with his ground crew and had them re-paint it. There are AM decals for this aircraft. But some basic German serials would do the job.

Here's an idea for you Bobby.

Oh Yeah!  Another Bish GB.....I'm in!  Pics to come soon, but I'm going to do the DML, 1/48 Me163B-1a Komet!  Not sure of the paint scheme yet, but this might be my first kit I do with PE!  I'm ready to rock!

I'm definitely in. 1/72 Italeri Me210A-1

Im in with a F-104G hasegawa 1/48 starfighter.

Thanks guys, got you aded. Nice to see we have an airliner already, i am sure we will see more.

John, look forward to seeing that MPM 109, i'd like to get some of the pre production versions.

Bish, I'm in with an Airfix 1/144 Airbus A300B.

I'm in with 1/48 Tamiya Bf109E-4/7TROP Black 8.

I'm in with these two:

This will most likely be done before the first, a rebuild of a Monogram 109E I first built in about 1967.

Glad to have you on board guys, will get the roster update. I made a slight change to one of the badges that i forgot to add.

Bish, I'm in with this Hasegawa Bf 109E-4, probably BoB yellow nose:

I started it a few years ago and then put it back on the shelf.

.

And this Bf 109G-3 in Swiss livery:

Cool badges!

I'm in with the 1/72 Italeri Me 410

You know I'm in Bish!!!

Imperial Japanese Army  1/48th Tamiya Bf-109E-7

I'm in! And thank you. I have the 1/48 Eduard Adlerangriff BF 109E in the Battle of Britain boxing in front of me and that's what I'll start with. Undecided on which schemes yet. There are several that I like so there may be some Overtrees in my future. Also need to get photo hosting set up but I will do that soon. I will be in the process of moving over the next couple weeks but should be operational by the start date. Looking forward to this!

My phone is having problems so, I like the first badge.
