This is a great idea and while I'd be happy to combine the two into one that then may contravene forum rules on what makes it a STGB. We really should ask @Enzo Matrix for his judgement on the matter. Good Morning Col What would you think of turning this STGB into a Grumman GB ?

helios16v Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 I could see turning this into a Grumman GB as a last resort...but I think we'll actually have an easier time getting these in as a STGB. Getting into a voting GB means getting into some stiff competition for a campaign slot. But if there aren't enough people that want to do Hellcats, then there aren't enough people to do Hellcats. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arniec Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 count me in for this one. My record of starting and finishing a model in a GB is terrible, but I will give it a try. I have got some in 1/72, 1/48, 1/32 Scale. Cheers, 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JOCKNEY Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 First the good news, found the kit and decals, bad news no clear parts as of yet !

stevej60 Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 Well I decided to cut back the number of kit's for next year with a move into mainly 1/32 with more time spent on less build's,this will mean less GB entry's but this one is a dead cert so before the kick off I'll shop around for Trumpeters kit but it will be in FAA colours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
