Bean, I really like your badge idea. Anthony, go ahead and use two badges, but you'll have to do two kits nowLaugh [(-D]. Welcome aboard I-Beam and gnsnow, you're on the list now.

Just a quick note
I may be scarce here during the week as I have a new job that is taking a lot of time, but I will be checking this every weekend and updating as necessary. Thanks all for joining this, this one is going to be fun.

EDIT#2 - a total flake I know, I'll be building the 1/35 Trumpeter Mil Mi-24V Hind-E, just ordered it today. Maybe I'll get some AM PE accessories before the build starts (maybe I'll just scratch them)?

Roadkill, I went ahead and got the 1/400 Russian Kilo class sub. Please add to my contributions for this GB. It's simple, only 14 parts. Yeah right famous last words Black Eye [B)]

Beans, sorry only amateurs are allowed to submit badges. Just kidding, thats real pro work.

Not to be a total twit, but I created a badge for those of us doing NATO aircraft.

I like Roadkill's idea of having multiple badges, and people using whichever one they like.

Well, I cast my vote for a patch for the A/C portion of this GB. I went with Comrade Sergei's small size patch as I like the look of it and it fits better with my other patches. Until a final decision is made, this one will work just nicely.

I've looked around, and fallen in love with Trumpeter's 1/48 SU-15TM. Which means I better start brushing up on my rusty wing-thing skills. Smile [:)]

marian, how about a mig-29 or an su-27 or something? a mig-21 also would be nice. for ships you could do the kirov or something, or maybe the minsk.

Hey roadkill, put me down for a U.S. sub. Either a boomer or attack. I don't know what scale yet though.

Is it too late to get in on this group build? I have a lot of unbuilt Russian kits that need an excuse to get pulled off of the shelf.

Hi. I saw the badges for this in the armour forum, and I wonder if I could join in.

I have a DML BMP-2 on its way to me, but this build has plenty of armour already, while there is only 1 ship and all the aircraft are NATO. Whatever I do it will be something from the Soviet side, so I will let the people decide for me. Smile [:)] Any suggestions?

Lets let it go a few more days and see if we can get some more. We really need to have one with a ship and one with an aircraft on it. That way we have all of the forums covered. In other words, if you're building a tank, you can use the tank badge, an airplane can use the airplane badge, etc............. The generic one can be for a person building more than one subject. At the moment I'm contemplating building a target to go along with my F-80 and possibly even a ship. One of the advantages with having an open finish date is being able to build more than one kit So, will this idea fly? (I couldn't make it easy and pick one, could I??)

Hmm, I kinda like Moggies.

Model Grandpa, Build both an A and a C. They're both appropriate to this build. As is the SR-71.
