That would of been my second build, but I doubt I will have time for that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its interesting that the less glamorous types such as the FAC's and the COIN aircraft seem to be very popular this year, certainly giving the pointy and supersonic boys a run for there money.

Think he has almost the complete Hasegawa collection. This aircraft is of no particular interest to me, but we used to fly them, so I have a few to wrap in Belgian colors... So for a bit of laughter: And silence again.. Definitely one of the nicest schemes in SEA colours. But not eligible for this GB. Have to wait for Century series GB. 😉 Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but the C is not as nice looking as the G and there’s something about the Belgian roundel that goes nicely with the SEA scheme.

Chris Apart from the enlarged tail the C is exactly the same as a G, but I agree with you about how good they look in Belgian markings, its a scheme on my to do list. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This helps me to understand 😉 Not only aircraft Jeroen, tank modelers often build many models of the same tank, different versions of Shermans, Tigers, King Tigers and Panzer IVs are all tanks that I have built several of each. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer my F-4s mainly in shades of grey so they fit in better with another GB this year. 😉 ...but if the Cranberry goes quickly and one of the F-4 schemes / multiple decal sheets I want to do is a Vietnam vet..... Chris So if the Cranberry goes quickly would this Viet Vet be eligible? (Missouri ANG in 1988, Hill grays, 2 MiG kills) Chris 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobster Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Hello! I am wondering if I can include an Airfix 1/72 Skyhawk that is started? I would like to ask if it qualifies as less than 25% completed? Thanks, Rob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that you are just (and only just) under the 25% rule Rob, so unless our glorious leader thinks otherwise I would say you are okay to start a thread. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for reminding me...I still need to get that Furball sheet for the D in the stash w/ the shot/iffy decals. So maybe I'll grab both the SLUF & Lo-viz Rhino sheets in one shot. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoftScience Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 I'm surprised we're not seeing any intruders in all the activities going on here. But I just placed an order with SprueBrothers and will be addressing this absence, soon 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
