Canadian GB -ALL SUBJECTS- (Sept 01 - to whenever finished)

QUOTE: Originally posted by jboutin .. I also have two 1:144 scale models I want finish up as a "Classic Opponents" type of thing, they are a f-4 phantom and mig-21.

QUOTE: Originally posted by jboutin Then all the things that come with being a new home owner, like yard work etc in the summer. My wife kindly asked "do you really think you'll have time to model this summer?" ...little does she know...

QUOTE: Originally posted by razordws QUOTE: Originally posted by jboutin hmmm... 6 months till the GB, I don't know if I can hold it until then, I'm so looking forward to this one. Me either... but I have the advantage that if I intend on doing the Lancaster from Hasegawa it won't be out until September. You know you could do a pre-build warm up like they did in the Battle of Britain GB! It's not like you have anything else on your plate !!

Originally posted by jboutin After some brief discussion, it sounds like a good idea to start this in the Fall of 2005 So am setting a start - end of Sept 01 to Dec 31 2005. Here is a list of those interested so far: Jboutin, I did some looking around and I'm a definite. I will be building one of the CF-104 kits from Hasegawa in 1/72.

I've got a bunch of Hornets but I'd like to do something different w/ them. The Tiger-Stripe Hornet comes to mind! :) Calvin Reply Edit buff Member since December 2003 From: Montreal Posted by buff on Thursday, March 17, 2005 10:37 AM I'll give it some thought. I don't have anything planned past the end of the Pz II GB that ends in October. I'll just need to find a kit worth doing, and that doesn't require massively cutting up an existing kit to make it accurate. I'm not good enough at that yet to take that on. It will be a vehicle of some sort.

Please, let me reiterate that I would like to plan on a FALL BUILD (ie. Sept to December 2005) I am busy for the next few months and I know the summer is going to get crazy for me (and I am sure most of you too). Thanks for the support guys, I'm going to edit the original post so that we have a list of 'maybes' and for those who said 'for sure'.

I'm sure others can point you in the right direction for more affordable options. Dave Reply Anonymous Member since November 2005 Posted by Anonymous on Wednesday, March 16, 2005 7:33 PM cdclukey: I'll keep you posted. It's looking like I'll start it as soon as I get the kit. Unfortunately, time is not on my side with this one. If that is the case i'll pick something else for the GB, perhaps a Lancaster in memory of the other grandfather. I'm looking forward to the Snowberry. It'll be my first attempt at a ship.
