Sgt.Squarehead Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 My thoughts exactly.....Would like to have built more, but still had some fun with what I did (which makes a pleasant change). Really enjoyed browsing the many and diverse build threads in the GB, it's been hard to keep up with them all and it's run me out of 'likes' a couple of times too.....Magnificent effort by all!

Foxbat Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 My big two didn't make it, but I've actually completed more models for this GB than I have for all the other ones I've entered put together. I've had a great time and rediscovered my mojo. Huge thanks to everyone involved with organising, running and encouraging a fantastic group build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPReggie Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 Yes, thanks everyone - this has been my first GB, and it has been thoroughly enjoyable. I originally intended on making 2, but only managed to finish 1. Watching everyone elses builds progress was really enjoyable. Thanks to the hosts, and all participants for making it such a joy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ettore Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 A beautiful GB which has allowed me to understand something more about russian airplanes Ettore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giorgio N Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 I feel the same as many here, I'd have loved to complete more than one model, unfortunately things went very differently. In any case it was a great GB, with a lot of very interesting subjects. Thanks a lot to the hosts for making this possible ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arniec Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 A great GB. Thanxs to all for making this a big one!!!! Cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 68 models completed, surely that is some kind of record? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could one of BM's "grown ups" or even Enzo tell us if this is the most successful GB so far ? It certainly feels like it, congratulations to not only the finishers but as importantly all the others taking part and encouraging everyone else cheers Pat 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepureness Posted October 3, 2016 Author Share Posted October 3, 2016 Stunning result everyone, thanks so much for taking part, 68 completed models (wow) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxbat Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Even better, there were a couple of dioramas/vignettes/groups, so those 68 entries actually represent rather more models. How cool is that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlaStix Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 4 hours ago, Brad said: 68 models completed, surely that is some kind of record? Hi Brad. It is a lot but, as far as I can remember, the 'Less than a tenner' GB had 100+ models in the Gallery and the 'Battle of Britain' GB had 99. 68 is still a fantastic amount though! Kind regards, Stix 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm nowhere near grown up, but I'll still stick my oar in. As Stix said, there have been a couple of GBs with more finishers, but not many. It's not something I have been tracking but it might make an interesting diversion to look into the stats. But by any yardstick, this has been a very successful GB. Credit should go to thepureness, Sgt Squarehead and Vppelt68 who have been very able hosts. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CliffB Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 To echo what Enzo has said, many thanks to the hosts (particularly), for making this a great GB Cliff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amblypygid Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Yes, many thanks to the hosts and all the participants, it's been a great first GB for me. Didn't do as much as I'd wanted to after I stalled badly on my Emcha build, and I couldn't keep up with all the other ongoing builds, but there were some entertaining and informative threads, and plenty of fantastic modelling.

Stew Dapple Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 I'd just like to add my thanks to Enzo, the hosts and my fellow participants; it's been a pleasure, thank you all gents Cheers, Stew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roberto Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 I loved this GB, so many great subjects, so many things to learn! Thanks to the hosts and to Britmodeller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Learstang Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 I didn't finish my entry (a Zvezda 1/72nd scale ISU-152), but it was still fun to do some work on armour, which I haven't done in a long time. I do plan on finishing my Zveroboi, once my writing schedule permits. Congratulations to everyone who was involved with this GB!

Alan P Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Well, voting for this one's not hard or anything! Really difficult to pick just one winner. So many good builds, and brilliant variety. Well done folks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SleeperService Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Thank You to everybody involved in this GB. Some great results in the Gallery and many worthy WIPs. I lost my system minutes after my last post and have just got it sorted so was denied at the last gasp. One day, one day. I have no idea what I'll be voting for as I'm rather impressed by the contenders and a little awed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Stuart Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 I'll echo other comments here, and agree that I really enjoyed this group build - I even finished something (not a first for me, but unusual). I aim to finish my T70 later ... On 07/10/2016 at 20:29, Alan P said: Well, voting for this one's not hard or anything! Really difficult to pick just one winner.

I think other people have found that to be a problem too - by my estimate, as I write this, 35 people have voted, and 39 votes have been cast for models Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GREG DESTEC Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 I have just had another look through the gallery and GB in general, and have to say what a great array of models there are on display there. An awesome spectrum of talents, which has made voting in the poll enjoyably difficult. Well done to all for making this a superb group build, and thanks to the organisers.
