Dazzio Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 (edited) Oh wow I totally forgot about this! Pretty sure I put my name down too, guess I had better get my backside in gear and sort something out. I have about 8 Airfix Mustangs some of them from Jadlam now I think of it... But don't have that starter set. Kind Regards, Dazz Edited August 5, 2018 by Dazzio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VMA131Marine Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 (edited) I'm in! I don't need to buy a kit. I have this one: For the time being, I'm planning to use the Korean War markings supplied with the kit.

Umm, 6 months would seem fair given that I look like managing a grand total of 2 GBs this year from a hoped for 4- I may not build fast but I can do the numbers stuff quicker!!

DaveyGair Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Bit late joining this, I have a previously bought starter boxing, going to do a RAAF one from an Xtradecal sheet, and my first ever NMF! Does this kit have a 'Dallas' canopy? I noticed there are two (rear parts) in the kit. Davey. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes can someone help me though , read the rules to say afternakeret can’t be used, but just read it again and it doesn’t say that tough implies it, so can I use the freight dog prop I have to do a p-51k or not?

Stu, the rules on page one state that All aftermarket parts and decals and scratchbuild can be used, must have been updated recently 😀 Davey. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Quick question ? Does the 25% rule apply ? Or is it hands off until the starting time ? I wasnt able to see anything against the 25% rule. Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dennis I would prefer everything for this GB to be from the start of the build, as it is meant to showcase everyone working from the start on the same kit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevej60 Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 (edited) Getting tempted to have a crack at this GB,I have "Form" with this kit but a couple of set's of decal's spare still to use. done also the Redtail,RAF and Dominican boxing's.

Avereda Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 You should always read the small print I suppose. I’d assumed this was going to be a GB for next year...as my son constantly reminds me, I’m an idiot. Anyhow, I’ve got some Swiss markings somewhere so I’ll try and knock something Swiss together. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkSH Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Hello Chaps, Just a quick question with regard to the finish on the Mustang, did the treatment for the wings i.e. the 'silver' lacquer paint used on the filled and smoothed wings follow through to the horizontal stabilizers? Also to differentiate between the fuselage and wing surfaces, I was thinking of using Vallejo metal colour - Aluminium but adding a small amount of white or light grey for the wing paint. Any thoughts? Cheers, Mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
