Jb65rams Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 I would be up for this, have a couple of ships in the stash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Swindell Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 There are enough aircraft based GB's already on the go; in fact the majority of all GB's are aircraft so please allow us ship modellers the pleasure of having a ship related GB. I have noticed in the past that, no matter what the initial subject, someone always wants to push the boundaries. If not then I vote the title is changed to shipbuilding GB. Mike Hi Mike, I wasn't looking to push any boundaries, the suggestion came from snapper_city. My comment was a rather tongue in cheek reposte to Pin's statement that flying boats aren't ships - they are in the eyes of the law when they're on water. However, I do agree that there's plenty GB's for wingy things and not enough floaty things. I supported the Titanic group build, and I'll support this one if it gets launched and I'm not away earing a crust on the briney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bootneck Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Hi Dave, thanks for clarifying; it can be difficult to get the intention of a chat when it's textual - we can't see the body language, which would have shown this to be meant to be light-hearted. Apologies for my own reposte and let's hope this GB gets enough members and votes to become a reality. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonhoff Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Me too! Went through a phase of buying floaty things and need a reason to build them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shar2 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I've got a loft load if ship kits, so it would be rude not to sign up for this GB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HansReggelsen Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Yeah - I'll join this too! Have a couple of ships somewhere that needs a reason to be built! Cheers Hans J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dfqweofekwpeweiop4 Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 I'll build something for this..... thanks Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SleeperService Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 If submarines are in I'll add to Whitestar's flotilla. Regarding the scope stretch how about a ditched B-17 with the crew waiting on the wings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray S Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 I will join too please! Got plenty to do, resin and plastic, and not averse to doing a scratchbuild either. Hope we get to the vote! Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob85 Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 If it gets of the ground (lol) I would be up for it. Never built anything that floats, but I have HMS Belfast in the stash which could do with being built up, and this would be a fine excuse.

JOCKNEY Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Oh this could be the excuse to finally build my Airfix Rescue Launch, lots of people have the MTB and e boats as well, and being in 1/72 unlike some of you building 1/700 I will be able to see it !

trickyrich Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 I know I'll regret this as I don't think I've ever completed a "boat" model in all my life, but I have a rather large one for which I need an excuse for to build. It's taking up way too much room in the stash and is eating into hiding spaces! So I guess you can count me in as well, will be bringing along a Merit 1/72nd Osa Missile boat! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smudge Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Ok, count me in. Something from Airfix in 1/72 probably. Or my Revell PT boat. Fingers crossed for the vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
