Sounds very tempting. I might have to join up with a Dragon Nato MLRS. I have plans to scratchbuild the cab interior as the kit is pretty basic there, and do a lot of external scratchbuilt stuff and add much more detail to do a more recent British vehicle.

Oh NOW I find this thread! I recently started a 1/48 Hasegawa P-51D "Jumpin'Jaques". My goal with this kit was to add as much detailing as I could using as little detail sets as I can get away with (read LOTS of scratchbuilding).

Ah well, serves me right for not checking this forum often enough. :)

I'll repost what I am doing too. (I just noticed my name made it to the list, but not my planned build).

I will be doing a Tamiya corsair with various parts from the Aires cockpit and Verlinden update sets, True Detail wheels, waldron placards, maybe a squadron canopy, and various scratch building, etc.

I'm very excited for the build, but keep seeing all these great looking group builds and committing, committing, committing. I hope I haven't overdone it.

Hello Tankmaster,

Thanks for adding me.

I posted what I was going to build earlier in the thread, but I'll do it again because I am the master of copy & paste.

1/32 Hasegawa Boeing F4B-4, will probably do a lot of scratchbuild detail on this. aftermarket items seem to be a bit scarce.

And no I'm not a red headed step child..

Have a great day,
Cheers,
Thom

Put me down for the MH-60L instead of the BMP-3. I've just ordered the resin sets today and I'll be getting the rest of the stuff in November. Can't wait to get started.

Sign - Ditto [#ditto]
The only question I'm facing is, should I keep with my original plans to build a BMP-3 or switch back to one of my favorites and build a MH-60L with gobs of detail? With the absence of a helicopter in this group build, I'm probably going to go with that. Lets see... MH-60L aftermarket would include: 2 sets of photo-etch, 4 resin sets, and 1 set of aftermarket decals. That's quite a bit more detail than the 2 sets of photo-etch for the BMP-3, not to mention all the scratchbuilding I want to do. Sounds like I just convinced myself. Blush [:I]Dunce [D)]

Cant wait!!! Smile [:)]

They look pretty cool! I might be switching my build to a tamiya 1/72 spoitfire with aires detail set and eduard detail set. It'll be a challenging project.
