bigbadbadge Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 (edited) Hi Blastvader If you want to do the Blenheim, I have just got the Xtradecal set 7202 for mine and I am going to do the 90 sqdn (K7307) which leaves another Bomber command machine available. You are more than welcome to the underwing and fuselage serials and sqdn badge (I think it has one). I will see what I need for mine i.e. if there are any roundels left etc. If you want them PM me with your address and I will get off to you. Edit - it is a 57 sqdn machine , serial L1145there are the serials and sqdn crest and there are enough roundels to spare if you need them. All the bestChris Edited September 19, 2014 by bigbadbadge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blastvader Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Hi Chris, That's an incredibly generous of you. I will gladly take you up on your offer. Thank you very, very much. PM sent. Cheers, Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woody37 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 It's unusually quiet in this GB, would of thought there'd be double the builds going on. Is there something going on that I'm missing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kallisti Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 I've put mine on hold for now while I complete my Wingnut Wings DH2 for the WWI GB, but as soon as that is done I'll be back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radleigh Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 (edited) If it's OK, I'm going to be changing my Halifax build to a Trumpy Wellington Mk.III.. So I won't be starting now until after the 12th October as the kits down in London and I'm visiting that weekend so I will bring it back up.

tonyot Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Can we do more than one build? When I`ve done my Whitley I quite fancy building a 4 or 6 Group Merlin Halifax or a 100 Group Fortress II and I`m pretty sure I`d get two kits finished by January. There are some great projects on the go so far and I`m glad that you`ve opened it out to cover the pre war years too, we should have some nice Blenheims and Wellesleys at least and maybe some more escoteric types besides?

Blastvader Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 It's unusually quiet in this GB, would of thought there'd be double the builds going on. Is there something going on that I'm missing? I'm just finishing up my WW1 GB entry before I start on my Blenheim. I've tried doing two projects at once, one look at my Sabre GB thread will show you how well that went Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwaterous Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 I'll be dropping out of this one, sorry fellows, but school is taking up all my time at the moment. I'll stick around and watch all your fantastic builds though Cheers, K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foresterab Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 So silly question, I'm hopefully going to be going to the Canadian Warplane Museum in about 2 weeks and taking some photos especially of their Lancaster now that it's returned from England. Are there any camera shots/angles that would be of interest? Most of their collection appears to be BCATP trainers but will be snapping photos away irregardless.

Rudolf_Filip Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 I'm surprised there is so little interest in this groupbuild. There is very little actual building going on. Why? I'm not that active myself, but I'm trying... 😀 By the way...where are all the Hampdens? Andreas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woody37 Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Like some of the other guys, I've got another GB on the go too and want to join in the Lightning one as well! Then I look around the house and accept that it needs a damn good cleaning today. Then the F1 is on Then there's the kids. O b****r the lot, back to the modelling!!!!! Hampden. Hmmm. I've got an Airfix kit to do here with all the trimmings (etch, vac). Wonder if I'll get time before the deadline? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafwaffe Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 (edited) Quick question for everyone to help me decide my build (being deployed I have 2 choices beaufighter 141 Sqn or Ventura 464 Sqn (only 2 relevant kits I have with me!) What size would the red codes be for 141 Sqn in late 1943? Edited October 5, 2014 by Rafwaffe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Jephcott Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 It's a bit strange how quiet it is - but I guess everybody else is building other things at the moment. We still have a few months to go too... I'm currently trying to get time to carry on with my 1/24 Typhoon - although progress is a bit slower than I was hoping for. When I get it done though, I'll start on my build. Hopefully, I'll get a few days where I can do something soon!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radleigh Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 I will be starting a week today... my kits in London, I'm in Telford so I'll be picking it up over the weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blastvader Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Stuck working away from home for most of the week. So that's my excuse. I have started my build though. Sort of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaddy Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 I was on holiday when the GB started and having got back home there was stuff that needed doing at home. I've been away all weekend in Scotland and this week I need to finalise my company accounts. Hopefully as of next week I'll be building, although I am currently reviewing my choices...

Kallisti Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 I'll be back to my Lancaster build once I've got the more urgent builds I need to get done for various deadlines sorted - most likely after Telford now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyot Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 I`ve just received a Hampden in the post today to go with the fantastic Authentic Decals Hampden sheet and will get on with that alongside my Halibag once the Whitley is done! I`m trying my best and would like to do another Hercules engined Halibag too but that might be `A Bridge Too Far' in time for January!

Blastvader Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Good afternoon I have a Hasegawa Mosquito B IV in my stash and I would like to know if it is qualified for this Gb ? Patrice I quick Google says that 105, 109 and 139 squadrons all had B IVs under bomber command. Before moving to the pathfinder force. So based on that it would be eligible. But you'd have to ask the hosts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonehammer Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 There's a Wellington-shaped gap which I might try and fill if work on the Mossie proceeds apace. I've done some progress but haven't got around to taking pictures yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
