JOCKNEY

Hi @Olmec Head Have you had a chance make any progress with this one since we last heard from you ? Cheers Pat

Congratulations Stu Looks the business mate Cheers Pat

An absolute classic and I'm delighted to see it joining the GB. One day I'll summon up the courage to build mine. Best of luck with this one. Cheers Pat

I hadn't realised that the Frog brand was still on the go with the original logo

I'd forgotten Premiere sold this Frog kit, delighted to see it joining the GB Cheers Pat

My initial thoughts are something Luft 46, although I'm saving my Unicraft kits for the Ukrainian GB. I've done a couple of Unicraft kits in Blitzbuilds, "shake and bake" stuff really ! What are other people considering ? Cheers Pat

Hi This GB is focused on the D-Day landings so sorry but the Rome idea won't fly in this GB. However the Italian theatre would be an ideal candidate for a Group Build so why not nominate it ? You are of course very welcome to join this GB if you have something suitable. Cheers Pat

Hi mate Great to have you with us The Storch can be in its original colours after all, D-Day involved the Axis forces too. Cheers Pat

Great work JR I'll need to start one of my own builds in this GB Cheers Pat

Looks terrific Martin Cheers Pat

Many thanks for the pictures I think Jack is a lucky chap and as a border collie, he's very intelligent too. I am the Chairman of an animal rehoming charity, so can I also say a big thank you to you and Joy for having your 2 rescue dogs previously Cheers Pat

Hi Jeff It's sad seeing your build going backwards but I'm sure this reset will be worth it when it's finished. Cheers Pat

Inspired choice Cliff Look forward to following this one Cheers Pat

Congratulations, it looks the business in the Gallery Cheers Pat

Hi Gavin Delighted to have you and the Sea Venom joining the GB. Best of luck Cheers Pat

@Hockeyboy76 have you got this in " Little H's " diary ? I won't be a proper Blitzbuild without her Cheers Pat

Thanks mate I'm hoping to get this one finished today to make it 3 in the Gallery, how are you getting on Cheers Pat

Hi Chris This isn't a prompt consider it a virtual cup of your favourite beverage and a biscuit What's happened to Jockney has he gone all soft ? Well no actually but we have all struggled with builds when despite our best intentions everything seems to conspire against us both practically with the kit and mentally with motivation. So I have a suggestion, leave this one for a bit and start a completely new kit. That always give me a lift. See how the new one goes and don't worry I'll "remind you " about this one before the end of the GB so you can finish it. As for your pictures if your preference is to build in a dungeon that entirely up to you but you could take a picture of the builds progress on the kitchen worktop under the glare of lights when SHMBO isn't looking we won't tell on you OK? Good luck mate Cheers Pat

Congratulations on your nose weight calculations, it's always great when a plan comes together Cheers Pat

Hi Dennis Both decal options are effectly the same, see below My preference is D-EZEF, from the picture on the box Here's the parts Although its really tempting to dive straight into this one, it will need to wait as I've got my He59 to finish in the twins GB and the co-hosting of the Frog 2 GB at the moment Cheers Pat

OK, brace yourselves, this is the contents of the packet.... Now I know I have a reputation for building lost causes, but even I am wondering if this is worth it ? I think trying to improve it, would be a monumental task and where do you stop ? The alternative is build it OOB with aftermarket decals, ( it doesn't come with any ) as an example of this kits manufacturer, after all I don't have any others, nor if I'm honest am I likely to add to them Thoughts ? Cheers Pat

Great stuff mate, you'll have this one finished in no time Cheers Pat

Great choice Jeff Have you had a chance to do any more since we last heard from you ? Cheers Pat

Great stuff Charlie Cheers Pat

It's looking great John Cheers Pat
