Ok folks, this GB has been up and running for a week now and we have 49 build threads going!!! :yahoo:

 

I've sort of lost count of the number of multibuilds going on a few of these threads, but I guess over 50 builds in total!

 

Well done everyone, what a great start to this GB. There's a great range of builds in the aviation category, not so many in the AFV's and yet none in the floaty section.

 

Lets try to get as many of these as we can completed and in the galley. 

 

For anyone watching and contemplating a build, just go for it and come along and have some fun, I think we need some more tank busters.

 

Me I reckon I'll get 2 completed....if I can scam some more time off work......opps I really didn't say that :whistle: ......maybe all 3.

Rich I would like to join with my Dragon 1/48 Ju 188A-1 torpedo bomber I was going to start it next week anyway. I have all the parts ready to go.

Nice!! Welcome along Greg, I have one of these in the stash (actually 2, I have the Ju-188E as well), will be interested in following this build.

Thanks Rich. I have the " E" as well. I was going to do them together, but I might be returning to Australia in a few years  so I will hold on to it for that. 

Once I have this project done I will be doing a project you will be familiar with. The Ar 264 Hasegawa 1/48 kit. I read your thread on that. You made a nice job of your one.

followed by an Etendard, A-4, Stuka and He111     You know you want to!   :wicked:  

 

I MUST finish stuff Ive started too.

I suspect the IM Jaguar with its Sea Eagle missile is too far on to be eligible though, despite how much work is required with filler, sanding, filler, sanding, filler.... Fuselage n wings are together, resin nose is on, loads left but rules is rules.

I will ask the question though just because I want the bloomin thing done and will have likely paint out while doing other stuff.

 

Too far gone?

unfortunately it is.....

 

.....however if you don't mind her being excluded from the gallery, and that joining in will finally see her completed then I really can't see an issue as it does fit the theme.

 

Just mention in the start thread that she won't be going into the galley with her being over 25% to keep everyone happy and go for it. I doubt we'll see another Jaguar in the GB so it'll be nice to have one.

No worries at all. As I say, I thought as much. Its not been as bad as other ones so I cant really moan.

 

Will try to keep the thing going as I plod along and try to keep it in the sidelines as a bit of a teaser. Dont tell the Hunter, but I much prefer the little Jag. :)

@trickyrich and @Enzo Matrix:

In view of Robert and Ray setting up separate polls for Maritime Patrol and Coastal Command subjects, and Stix for various scale Panzer IV:s, maybe Rich will consider this for various Specialist categories too? Well in that case, I propose as a future voter, that Enzo could set up separate galleries for these categories too. It would ease the forth and back browsing for both Rich who'll set up the poll(s), and us choosing our favorites and voting for them. Most likely it would also lessen the chance of hitting that 25 entry limit per poll page. How'd that sound in your ears? V-P

I've actually gotten use to setting up massively complex polls.....seeing I sort of started this multi-theme style GB! :whistle: I haven't seen those GBs, but multiple Gallery's isn't hard to setup.

 

The only hard part is making sure that everyone posts their builds in the right gallery. Sounds simple but trust me!!!! 

 

The one thing I have against it is that all the builds may not get the same exposure, a gallery with a couple of builds doesn't necessarily generate the same viewing traffic as a very popular gallery. I think everyone deserves as much exposure as is possible for their builds.

 

But if the view is to have multiple gallery then that's ok by me.

Got one of those massively complex polls here in uk that needs a helping hand :boom:

Hi Everyone, little late to the party but I'd like to join.

A recent member to Britmodeller, I only actually discovered the elusive group build section of the forum that I'd seen mentioned elsewhere on here a few days ago - when I actually bothered to scroll further down the homepage. Face-palm. 

But I'm here now! And for my first contribution to a GB going for the 1/48 Hobby Boss P-61 Blackwidow.

Probably be a week or two before I get started as just finishing off a Wildcat.
