I've got one of these in my stash and I can't wait to build it as it looks like a really good kit. There's a good chance it will feature in this GB if I can get my backside into gear fast enough. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks to be a really nice kit Jack, but I can look for an alternative kit if you are building yours. Cheers John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's always frustrating when the GBs we want to participate in are clustered together but such is life. At least participation is not mandatory 22 hours ago, Andwil said: Unfortunately with a house move in the offing I’m not going to be able to join in. Apologies.

Tim R-T-C Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 So unexpectedly my order from Kyiv has arrived, after threatening three month delivery. It needs some assembly - and thats just the boxes! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col. Posted May 31, 2021 Author Share Posted May 31, 2021 @airfixpeter that's a nice selection of different options. @Muchmirth no rush as finishing an existing project is always the honourable thing to do. @Tim R-T-C that's certainly flat-packed. Hope there was no damage to the kit parts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retired Bob Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 Hi Col, I cannot believe I have not signed up for this STGB. I have a fair selection of Bf 109s to choose from, every mark from the E to a K mostly in 1/48th but on a whim I bought a Tamiya 1/48th Bf 109G-6. I will be building it as a Luftwaffe Reich defence aircraft but not sure at this time which one, I will have to look through my AM decals for something interesting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TonyOD Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 Apologies @Col., I've decided I'm going to have to sit this one out. As i said i don't have a 109 in the stash and my kit buying has been a bit overenthusiastic of late, fast approaching SABLE (Stash Amassed Beyond Life Expectancy) status now. Still got two other GBs to finish off and I'd like a bit of breathing space between them and French Fancy, for which I do have something lined up. Also better weather + relaxed restrictions = me away a lot, so my work rate is going to be even slower! I'll keep an eye on the WIPs though and cheer people along. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Col. Posted June 1, 2021 Author Share Posted June 1, 2021 @TonyOD, no worries fella. attendance isn't mandatory Like you I have too many other unfinished projects littering my workbench and little time to do much about them far less start another and moderating this GB is going to keep me busy. Please feel free to join in the banter as we go though @Richard Tucker, no rush, always happy to see existing projects getting finished and there's plenty time left to join this GB once you're free and suitably equipped 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope there was no damage to the kit parts? No, seems to all be fine. I think it is their standard practice, reduces shipping costs and means the boxes themselves arrived without a dent, so can't complain. --- Since I've got several C and D models to build, can anyone recommend a book on the types, particularly in pre-war and early war Luftwaffe service. I've looked at my go-to Osprey range but they don't seem to cover this specifically. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
