Natter Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 I have been lurking, and I make no commitment to the GB (Oct - Dec next this year is likely to be really busy at work) though I voted for it. I do have the Italeri F-5A with a couple of Colorado decal sheets in the stash and awaiting some attention. A Venezuelan aircraft perhaps? Mmmmm.........

Arniec Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 I think Arnold is a brave man than I wanting to take on a CA model.......though I have to admit I have a couple waiting to be built! Well, I am building the Kinetic one at the moment and I am not to happy with that one as well. There are some ptouble with that kit as well. Luckely I only have the CA model now for this GB. I don't know if it will be build in Dutch colours though. Cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Cooper Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 This is promising to become a very interesting GB, so much is sure. Looking forward for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickyrich Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 This is promising to become a very interesting GB, so much is sure. Looking forward for it. maybe you have some interesting and unusual colour schemes for us? I was planning to build a Sth Vietnamese F-5 but could be tempted?? I know your vast knowledge will be called upon that's for sure, so I'm very glad you'll be with us for this GB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Well, I know now what scheme I will be doing. It will be a F-5A in Norwegian colours from the Aerobatic team the Flying Jokers. This scheme was also in the Kinetic box and I am a member of the SIG Aerobatic display teams. So the choice was easy. Also I got some help from my fellow SIG and Britmodeller member Ørjan from Norway. Thanxs for the info Ørjan.

gingerbob Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 (edited) Don't quit your day job! No clear plan for which I would do- probably either a T-38 or, "What the hell, if I'm doing an F-5 GROUP build, I might as well tackle several!" bob Edited May 14, 2015 by gingerbob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they will have released the 1/48th set for the Sth Vietnamese F-5's by then, will make my model selection easier then.......though the Iranian ones...... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
