Basilisk Posted April 29, 2017 Author Share Posted April 29, 2017 (edited) I just added a list of all the models entered so far to the first post - 36 in total which is a great start. I will keep it updated once a week or so and will mark the models which made it into the Gallery. But we certainly could do with more AFVs as only two members are building them so far and there is no Navel vessel entry at all But it is great to see two figurine entries. I take my hat off to modellers building figures as I see it one of the more challenging thing to do. Keep them coming.

planecrazee Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Hey folks Is there room for a little one in the GB. I'd like to enter the Revell/ICM I-153 Chaika. I'm currently finishing a Mig-21 for the Nato/Warsaw pact build so I fancy going back in time with this GB. Kris 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have anything in the stash for the first two but if I get time when the Antonovs are done I might fill the Tupolev gap with a Zvezda Tu-154 - I have my eye on the F-Dcal set for a Polish Air Force example. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radleigh Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 I was going to do my Zvezda Tu-134 with Small Stuff Tu-134UBL conversion... but I'm saving that for a rainy day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ground bound stuff includes a couple cargo haulers (KrAZ-255 & ZiL-131) and a ZSU-23 mobile AAA. We'll see..... Truthfully I've got an itch to dig out the Su-24 though. But I think I've got Naval markings for it...does that count? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we do need some of the older Russian aircraft represented too. 35 minutes ago, helios16v said: I've got a Baku in the stash for floaty things.

Dazzio Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Hello everyone, Would the An-71 "Madcap" be allowed to join in? I know there was 4 prototypes, but wasn't sure if there is anything in the rules about not using prototypes? I did check and saw nothing. I've raided my stash and I got a few Russian bits in 1/144 to build. Kind Regards, Dazz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pin Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 I don't see why not. Welcome on board! OR you can still join "Prototypes" GB - the choice is yours 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That thought never crossed my mind... I've got a Mainstay/Bear I can do in 1/144 for this one. I'll have a think, might even do the Terminator (BMPT?) tank thing for this.)

Basilisk Posted May 6, 2017 Author Share Posted May 6, 2017 Well, we have the first week behind us and some great models in the making. I updated the list of builds on the first page as we have 11 new builds under way! There are now a total of 47 builds, but sadly still nothing which floats. Keep them coming.

Basilisk Posted May 13, 2017 Author Share Posted May 13, 2017 Two weeks into the GB and I could add another eight build to the list on page 1! Also great to see that most build are in full swing now And we got several firsts Naval craft Airliner Polikarpov MiG-21 in 1/72 But surprisingly no Sturmovik yet There are still many Britmodeller who have signed up for this GB but haven't commenced a build yet. Still plenty of time left and it would be nice if we see another swag of new builds during the coming week - so keep them coming.

I'm going to get my RF-4E finished up for 70s NATO/Warsaw, then need to get my Prototypes X-1 knocked out (should be a quickie). After that I should be ready to dig out my Russia project. Still leaning towards that Naval Su-24. But hey, who knows. Still plenty of time for me to change my mind. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know how it feels to participate in all these GBs - and many overlap substantially which makes it even more challenging. I am looking forward seeing your Naval Su-24 whenever you are ready.

Sgt.Squarehead Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Time to open a thread I feel (sorry for my prolonged absence). Nothing says (Soviet) Russia quite like a T-34 in my opinion.....I've got quite a few to choose from (I just hit the fifty kit threshold IIRC). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
