Heraldcoupe Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Absolutely up for this one, just need to clear the Best of British group builds first.... and get them to Telford! Yes, I know I'm cutting it fine..... My stash is bulging with potential FAA material, so no shortage of kits. I also voted for the Naval Group Build in the recent poll, so I'm duty bound to take part. Now what to build.... decisions, decisions........ Cheers, Bill.

omegaman Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Well the choice is: - 1/48 Airfix Sea Harrier FA2 (started rescribing wing) 1/48 Airfix Seafire FR46/47 1/48 Esci Skyraider AD4W AEW Mk1 1/48 Trumpeter Sea Hawk I think I am in! Probably plump for the Sea Hawk and Skyraider Unfortunately nearly finished (decalling - and lots of them!) the COLONIAL NAVY FG1 in 1/48. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 I've been looking for an oportunity to tackle my Xtrakit Sea Vixen, so I'm in. I've got some decals for a FAW.2 XP924 of 899 sqn (the one at Tangmere with the skull and crossbones) and some red tops from the spares box. I'd like to to pick up something more strightforward as a backup, maybe an EA-6B Prowler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jRatz Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 I'd like to join, but my schedule might be a bit too crowded so I'll defer final decision for a bit. If I join, it will be a ship, either an Airfix 1/600 WW2 with some WEM details, or something from WW1 in 1/700. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDSModeller Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Naval build eh!

Dr_Fester Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 This GB might get me off my @rse and building models again after a little hiatus. I have an Airfix 48th Super Etandard needing an excuse to be built, just got to pick up a Neomega cockpit set from Telford and I will be good to go. My entry will be an Argentinean Navy machine from 2nd Escuadrilla, Puerto Belgrano, 1982 Falklands Conflict. Cheers Doc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well thats settled then, only thing is, I 'hope' to get it for a christmas present, and if so I expect i'll be 'playing' with it by boxing day? Will this effectvely mean I am breaking the rules of the group build? Are we allowed to start early? It IS christmas afterall? Dan.
