Panzer III GB Feeler

Dupes- Hey buddy!  I am glad you could join us too.  OK, I will put you down for undecided.  It would be great if you happen to have one of those models that nobody else has signed...

Everybody, I am going to create a list of all models and variants in GB thread to help us keep better track which is still available to be taken.

I don't think I can pass this one up! Too many Pz.III - based kits in the stash to count...just put me down as "undecided" for now. 

Mjolner-   I got you down for StuG III G.  It looks like it will be a popular subject in Panzer III GB.  Can you please tell me which kit you are using?  Dragon, Tamiya or other... thanks!

Count me in please.
The StuG III G.

OK, its official... the Panzer III and its variants GB has been posted in Group Build forum.  Please go over there and sign up if you are interested. 

For those who have signed up, please review the participation list and let me know if there is anything need to change.  Also, I need to fill in some blanks...

I am really looking forward to this.  Time for me to shop around for a Panzer III kit... still undecided at this moment. 

Boy, this is getting better and better.  I am almost ready to launch official Panzer III GB in Group Build forum. 

Erik- Welcome aboard!  I got you down for Cyber-Hobby Panzer III Ausf G.  Let me know if things have changed.  I am just like you... I don't think I will be able to start mine til late summer as I need to finish two ongoing GBs. 

I'm interested. This may give me an excuse to pick up the Orange Box Pz III G I've had my eye on at the LHS. If I join I probably won't be starting my build until summer. I've got 3 other projects I need to finish before I start another.

Erik

malone duke- I missed the second kit you listed.  Sorry about that.  That would be great if you can do so it will give us better chance to hit all variants!

Didn't want to be left out.

Mike, got that too!  I am a big fan of DAK.  I am thinking about doing the same too.

Will have complete list posted on GB forum... I am working on it right now.

Please remember that I'm doing a DAK 10th Panzer Division Tamiya 1/35th scale Panzer III L.

Oh boy, two Hoosiers just signed up... this is going to be FUN! 

HawkAceDriver-   No need to be concerned... guys are usually friendly in GBs. Got you down for StuG III G early.   See you in GB forum.

Ogrejohn- Oh boy, I am so glad we are in together so does it means you will share me your cool PE bending tool?   Got you down for same as Hawk.  I have been following Tigerman GB since day one... plenty of great WIPs. 

Thanks again!

Well, I guess I'm in as well Andy. I'll be doing the Dragon StuG III G Early version so I don't have to mess around with the zimm. I can't start till I get the build done for Tigermans GB.

I'll throw caution to the wind and get in on this one.  It'll be the first GB for me so we'll see how this goes.

Put me down for the  Dragon Stug. III Ausf G early production .

Guys, I am back after a very busy weekend.  I am very pleased to see huge interest in GB III participation so I am going to launch official post in Group Build forum later tonight...

I hope I didn't miss anybody since my last roll call...

Phil H- All the way from down under... thank you again for the tip about Cyber-Hobby kit!  Have you down for the 'diving' tank.  It would be interesting to follow this.  Always liked that color picture of Panzer III coming out of river.  Am sure you know what I am talking about...

Hun Hunter-  Great about doing a StuG... few of us are going to build StuG.  Just let us know which Ausf in GB forum.  Either C or D is perfect!  I plan to build Dragon Imperial StuG III Ausf F.

Nate- Boy, it is going to be fun building with you again.  We have plenty of time... maybe you can fill in the blanks by time you are ready.  It would be great if you can do Ausf D or E?  I am still undecided at this moment...

Doogs- After that outstanding work on your Achilles, you will do great with the Ausf L Vorpanzer.  Just let me know if its official...

Anthony- This is great!  I believe it will be our third GB together... I am starting to loose count!  OK, I have you down for either Ausf G or H.  Understand G is your first choice!

Rob- Oh boy, it is starting to feel like a reunion now!  Glad you could join us.  Like I said, plenty of time... year long GB so if you can do it then I will have you listed for Stug III Ausf G with Zimmerit!

 Flithpig-   Assuming it is your first GB.  I have you down for CB Panzer III.  Please let us know which Ausf so I can create a complete list in Group Build forum.  Thanks!

Malone- Welcome another first timer I assume.  Got you for Ausf N. I am sure guys will be able to help you.

Hope I didn't miss somebody!?!?!? LOL

It will NOT be limited to one subject per person.  I was hoping that we can build every Ausf if possible and its variants.  Now we are seeing plenty of interest so I am confident that we can accomplish this.  I will create a list in GB later tonight if I am not too tired.  Then maybe later this year we can close gaps if there are any. 

That's how I understand it!

I saw the Tamiya Pz III Ausf N and loved that Leingrad scheme so I'll definately be building that.

Seeing as it's a Panzer III variant GB I'm also going to have to build a StuG too - I'm liking the StuG III Ausf G as I've already got the III A and am currently working on the III B.

If EVERY single variant got covered then that would be a real achievement Andy! I think it's quite possible

Thinking maybe this, or something similar.

Or maybe I'll get some nerve and get something super detailed and actually learn some PE. Decisions.

Phil H-  Yes you were right... thank you so much! I am SO GLAD you mentioned because it didn't show up when I googled last night.  I think I am going to order this kit only if nobody has signed up for Ausf M.

 I will wait and see if somebody else wants Ausf M... I will order either this or Ausf E instead. 

Take a break, man.  You've got until July!!

I am back guys!  It rained at the outdoor event but good thing we brought our own canopy!  It quit raining just in time for the event to start then it started to rain as soon as it ended.  Crazy but thank you Mother Nature for giving us a break!

Later...

Understood Andy,then I will finalize later on .this should be a lot of fun

Glad things went well for you.

Andy, are you limiting this GB to one subject per person like the Marder build? i.e only one person per variant?

I'm in. Got a CH Panzer III on the shelf.

Andy I have been watching this since you first posted trying to decide if I wanted to commit.  Great subject and it looks like your going to have an excellent turnout.  I want in but i'm already commited in two other GB's and my family will be moving here shortly.  So I'm still not sure, with the long time frame though I think I can get in a bit later in the build if that is alright.

Would like to do:

I don't think so.  As long as you stay within the perimeters of the GB, duplicate submissions aren't an issue.

Am I to understand that once someone declares they want to build a particular variant,then only one person will build that particular one ? If that is the case,my 1st choice would be te G,if you award it to someone else,then I will do the H .

Chazzer- It will be posted in GB forum.  It is a feeler so It was posted here in Armor.  For sure we will do the Panzer III GB and I will start a new post in GB later this week. 

Guys-  This is really looking good so far!  I have to work today... yes on Sunday special event at Indiana School f/t Deaf ... outside in the rain.   I will get back to you guys later tonight.  Later...
