Yeah, I just got more info from spiralcity.  I'm going to move the start day to September 1st of this year and run it till spring sometime.  I haven't quite decided on the end date.  Do you think  that's long enough?

Sounds like a cool project.  I look forward to seeing it finished.

Hey Red, yeah I am ready for this.  I will bring out a ME262 don't yet know size either 1/48 or 1/32 that I will Modify to look like a twin tailed variant that was drawn up.  Also you should include some dates or deadlines. 

This should be fun though hope more people join.

  O.k., recruits, listen up!

Here are the Rules of engagement for this group build:

1:  The planes built here must be of WW2 vintage.  Meaning; paper projects, prototypes (no combat time), and unbuilt variants (pre-designed) of combat planes are welcome. Planes used during the Korean War are also eligible.  Anything built after the Korean War is un-usable. 

2:  All scales welcome.

3:  If you do not want to build a model of any of the above, you have another option;  with purpose in mind, build a model of a self designed variant of any WW2 combat plane.  For example: a shipoard Dornier 335 sub-hunter, or a recon version of the BF-110. Keep the version within the limits of praticality, though; No Lasers!Smile,Wink, & Grin [swg] 

4: Planes that may have entered combat but didn't due to the end of the war (such as the P-80 and P-59 Aircobra) are welcome.  Just make sure they appear combat ready and in a feasible paint scheme for the chosen front.

5: Personal nose art on planes is welcome.

6:  Kit must be unbuilt or barely started (ie, no more than a cockpit) unless approved.

7: Have fun!  This is a very free build, designed for fun and creativity, not rivet counting (you can if you wish)!Burger [BG]

8: By suggestion of cardshark_14, here is the build timeframe.  GB will run from September 1st 2008 to May 1st 2009.

Now, to work, men!
