Wez Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Is there a listing of participants for this GB? I'd like to join, but I don't recall if I've already done so! D'oh! You signed up previously before the thread was closed after the vote (are you still following me? Well done if you are)! At the weekend I'll put a list up of those who said they were interested previously and those who've expressed an interest in this thread - if you catch my drift?

Enzo the Magnificent Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Is there a listing of participants for this GB? I'd like to join, but I don't recall if I've already done so! D'oh! Not as such. However, you don't need to be on any list. Once the GB starts, you open a build thread and jump right in! to the GB! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Man Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Both figures are now in hand, mes amis.... Both are 54mm white metal. The one on the left is a Dragoon private in a line regiment, the one on the right a sergeant in the Voltigeur company of a line battalion. Both are in campaign order, though for the sergeant this is a bit more of a departure from parade in the barrack square than it is for the dragoon private.. It has been a while since I did one of these, but I hope, at least, not to make too much of a hash of them.... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulT 876 Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 I will do the 48th FM MS 475 Vanneau with the Markings from the Berna Decals BD 48-32 sheet. The a/c is from DERO 305 Alger Maison - Blanche in 1953. That's a French kit Decals and French subject, just pop a small splash of pastis in the paint and its the paints sorted. Well that's the plan all the bits are in the box ready for the off. I might do another build we shall see how this one gets on, I have loads of choice.

thepureness Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Now, I either go for a 1/72 C-160 Transall, a 1/144 hawkeye or the New Kinetic 1/48 Mirage IIIE. Hmm tough choice 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's absolutely no reason why you would make a hash of these figures, looking forward to seeing these progress.

Some very colourful schemes on these aircraft too, good luck with this one! Now, I either go for a 1/72 C-160 Transall, a 1/144 hawkeye or the New Kinetic 1/48 Mirage IIIE.

Some very colourful schemes on these aircraft too, good luck with this one! The inline-engine 475 reminds me of an enlarged Miles Master I. The radial-engine 470 looks like it would be at home on the deck of a WW2 US carrier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

georgeusa Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 I was perusing my stash for suitable candidates and spied these two beauties. I am sure either one of these fine aircraft would qualify; a Mirage Or this Rafale M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul J Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 In addition to my Flamant, I've found a car kit for this. Very French, a Citroen Avant Traction thingy to 1/72nd . Kit by ACE. PS: Couldn't think of anything to try and get away with something French Canadian/Quebecoise.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
