Arniec Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 (edited) Hi Guys, I have just read that there are still 5 slots for 2018 available in the STGB class. And after finishing the Ju-88 STGB it got me thinking about a He-111 STGB. There are models from 1/144 to 1/32 scale. And they flew in many different countries, from the A to Z version including the Casa version and also the civilian versions. So let me know if you are interested. 1. ArnieC (Host) 2. Mottlemaster 3.

Mottlemaster Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Hi Arnold please put my name down for this one . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blastvader Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Yes please. I have three of the Revellagawa versions and intend to pick up a couple of Airfix ones. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyTiger66 Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Hi Arnie this is a splendid idea. I will be doing a Roden He -111 B for the Spanish Civil War GB II if it goes through, but I also want to bite the bullet and do a He-111 C and E. These are infamously tricky kits, so it would be one of those for this GB. If I chicken out it would indeed, be a CASA 2111 in 1/72 Best regards Tony 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vppelt68 Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 I suppose I should be counted in as one of the usual suspects... And this means I can postpone building my kit till the STGB 😅 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZitchDog Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 (edited) I'd be up for this one, another aircraft that was on my "to do" list Edited August 8, 2016 by ZitchDog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old thumper Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Yes I could build one of these. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arniec Posted August 9, 2016 Author Share Posted August 9, 2016 Thanxs Guys, you have all been added to the list. Wow!!! already seven!!! This is going fast. I was for myself thinking of a 1/32 beast. Cheers, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caerbannog Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Oh yes please - I started a Monogram He 111 about 5 1/2 years back and shelfed it rather soon. My plan was to convert it to a paratrooper transport like the Duxford machine and started to scratch the interior. Here are some old pictures of what is done: I suppose this is still well under the 25% rule? Would be good to finish it at last (not that I usually finish a GB... :banghead: ) René 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arniec Posted August 9, 2016 Author Share Posted August 9, 2016 Welcome René, Yes your build is under the 25 %. To be ohnest You haven't start the Original kit. I only see some scratch building (what is lovely by the way). Cheers, 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arniec Posted August 12, 2016 Author Share Posted August 12, 2016 This one has got a bit quite, so i give it a bump upwards to get it in the picture again. There are some countries that used it, including Germany, Spain, China, Rumania, Turkey,Bulgaria and Hungary. O, also don't forget the captured ones by the USA, UK, France, Russia, etc. This could also be a lot of different colours, like the interim war scheme (RLM 62/63/64/65), standard war scheme (RLM 65/70/71), N. Afrika scheme (RLM 78/79 with or without some green blobs), etc. I hope that this will inspire some more for this GB. Cheers, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vppelt68 Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 This needs to be taken care of and put through before we begin to tackle the Do 17 STGB 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can Always recover in 2017. This will be for 2018 (hopefully). I have also got the Airfix kit and I think that it will build like a dream.

Arniec Posted August 30, 2016 Author Share Posted August 30, 2016 Common Guys!!!! I just need 15 more to have a go. The Heinkel He 111 flew during the Battle of Britain, in Afrika, Russia, Around the north cape to attack some convoys. Later they flew with V1's . They flew in every war zone that I can remember. Even as a twin (Z) to tow the Me 321 Gigant. They flew in Original colours (RLM 65/70/71), or winter camo, or the first camo of RLM 62/63/64/65 (Spain/pre war) or even in sand gelb (Yellow). More than enough diversity in colour schemes. So there is more than enough possabilities. I hope that this will get me some more builders for this great project..

Arniec Posted December 1, 2016 Author Share Posted December 1, 2016 (edited) I am a little bit noughty and give this one a bump. maybee someone will build one to, after the rumours of a new 1/48 scale one from ICM and the recently released 1/72 ones from Airfix!!! And also don't forget the Hasegawa and reboxed Revell ones!!! And for the guys who like big scale the 1/32 ones from Revell as well!!!

exdraken Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Depending if the ICM is abailable by then a maybe even an early version I could imagine building a Spanish Pedro 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

modelling minion Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 I've got the Revell/Hasegawa kit in the stash and the new Xtradecal sheet so I could be persuaded to join in, might even have one of the new Airfix kits by the start of this one as well.
