LDSModeller Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 (edited) I would like to join to this Group build, if I may?. I have a number of kits in my stash which have languished there owing to newer and better kits on the market. Three months would allow me to build most OOB the following 1/48scale Monogram TBF-1 Avenger Monogram TBD- Devastator Monogram SBD Dauntless (probably a SBD 4) Monogram F4F Wildcat Monogram F4U-4 Corsair Tamiya F2A-2 Buffalo Others in my stash which I could enter but might not accomplish in 3 months Hasegawa P3c Orion (VP 40) Hasegawa SP-5B Marlin (VP 40) Special Hobby Brewster Buffalo (1/32) Monogram OS2U Kingfisher Regards Alan Edited May 23, 2013 by LDSModeller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enzo the Magnificent Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Intriguing enzo.... looking forward to seeing what you have in store Okay, I'm definitely in! I shall be building a North American T-28B in overall yellow with Willow Green trainer bands. Also, a Lockheed T2V Seastar in white and orange. The final one will be a Lockheed TV-1. This is probably better known as the F-80 Shooting Star. A handful were taken on charge by the US Navy. I will be building this aircraft. http://www.abpic.co.uk/popup.php?q=1051252 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radleigh Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Now my work load is 7 days a week, (my choice!) I will still enter this but I don't think it'll be a vacform Gulfstream, so I'm toying with other options. I don't have to much US Navy stuff, thats small and doable in 3 months so will have to purchase something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giorgio N Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Having just bought a very old box of the Airfix SH-3, I'm tempted by a "vintage" build: the ancient airfix kit with some very old Esci aftermarket decals for an overall engine grey aircraft.

Mozzy19 Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 I could possibly enter an Academy 1/48 F-4B Phantom. I just have to remember to start because I barely remember whats happening next week! Also, I think our summer holiday crosses over the start date so I'll probably be a bit late starting. Sean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellzy Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Be good to see that one Sean look forward to your build Les Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mozzy19 Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 I might actually do a battle damaged S-3 Viking instead of the Phantom using an old 1/48 AMT kit that has a warped wing. I want to do the Phantom as a marine version, but of course that may change! Sean Edit: or if I can get hold of a Hasegawa 1/48 F-4J, I'll do that instead.

AndyC Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Just realised that this GB starts while I'm away with the family in Tenerife! So, I miss the first 2 weeks. Been giving the GB some thought and I am probably going to attempt one, two, or all three... 1/48 Tamiya F4D-1 Skyray 1/48 Czech Model FR-1 Fireball 1/48 Czech Model XF2R-1 Dark Shark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shar2 Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 I've changed my mind too. I hope to build the USS Saratoga in pre-war colours with full compliment of aircraft. This could all go west if the date for my next operation gets in the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enzo the Magnificent Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 All change again! I had opted in with a TV-1, T2V and T-28. However, now Special Hobby have released their SB2U Vindicator kits and one of those just can't be ignored. So I will pull the TV-1 from the GB. I'll definitely stick with the T-28. I might also pull the T2V. In that case I'll do a small project in the new year of P-80, T-33, F-94B, F-94C and T2V. That will leave me able to transfer an F9F-2 Panther from the Splendid Cats GB to this one. Current choices: SB2U-1, T-28C, F9F-2 or T2V Will it change again? Who knows???

Old Man Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 I expect i will be joining in this, with an odd duck from the early days: a battleship turret platform machine, either a Camel or an N.28 (both in 1/72 of course...).... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Navy Bird Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Hi mates, I can't recall if I signed on for this one (old age, you know?), but hey why not? Plenty of USN aircraft in the stash...but picking one will be difficult. Maybe I'll have the wife pick one for me. A biplane perhaps.
