He’s suddenly producing pictures of models and claiming “he is wot did it guv” We need some clarification from the esteemed members of the jury. ”Wot say you Sir’s?” @nimrod54, @JOCKNEY, @Enzo Matrix, @Col., @modelling minion, El Presedinta @Rabbit Leader @Cookenbacher @trickyrich doing his best Blue Peter again - "Here's one I prepared earlier..." I'm happy to see this as a Complicated Schemes GB as that opens it up to other possibilities such as warship 'Dazzle' and AFV 'Berlin Brigade' type options. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cookenbacher Posted March 29, 2020 Author Share Posted March 29, 2020 Complex Schemes it is! Welcome aboard everyone - we're at 29 already. @trickyrich, I've listed you as a co-host as you said you don't mind and we've stolen your idea and all. Can't wait to see what all ready prepared surprises come out of the oven next 😀. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickyrich Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 who me??? Currently just a boring plain Desert Brown beastie, strangely i haven't actually got anything complex planned for the rest of the year. I'm just waiting for an accessory for my PC before I continue my mask making project. No worries are happy to help, I just hope we can get the numbers for the vote. Reckon thiswill be a fun GB. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh evil Chinese Corono virus, you're forcing me to accede to the evil empire that is evilBay!!!! ......hmmmm now what shall I buy first! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry1954 Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 So does that mean we can start now? Better pick a subject and crack on with my current Nordic GB entry, my Vosper, my AMX-13, my Meteor 8 et Al........ How long do we have, a while I hope?

Plenty of time Terry, since this is a full GB (rather than a single type group build), with our 30 newly registered members, we've merely earned the right to enter the big GB vote in November with hopes for a spot sometime next year if we get through that. 13 hours ago, Beazer said: I could have my arm pulled for this Gb. Your arm has been officially pulled (politely, from a distance of course) and you are the magical number thirty. Welcome aboard! Edited to let @Enzo Matrix know that we hit the magic number - thanks everyone, let's hope we get this one over the top for next year! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trickyrich Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 BUMFIGHT!!!! woooohoooo! In a sad state of affairs, I haven't actually bought a model off evilBay for 2 months now! And with the $1 Oz being worth about $0.02 at the moment, probably not for a while either! Please feel free to start a "Lets buy Rich some more 1/48th, 1/32nd resin and plastic models of stuff he's really interested in plus AM stuff to go with it fund"! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romeo Alpha Yankee Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 Thanks, This was the first C-130A I built back in 2010 as a commission job for a Flight Engineer who flew them. I need to make one for myself now. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I recall I used a variety of Testors metalics just sprayed straight on, Might have done some buffing as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robw_uk Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 assume this will be for next year. I am going to trial home-made digital camo on the Japan Type 16 Tank Destroyer but pencil me in for this. If that works I may try something more complex or "officially painted digitally" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dansk Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 I’d love to try this one, can you count me in too 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cookenbacher Posted June 23, 2020 Author Share Posted June 23, 2020 Welcome aboard @robw_uk and @Dansk, hopefully we get enough votes in November for inclusion in next year's Group Build schedule. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modelling minion Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 Lets hope so, this one really has great potential for a huge variety of subjects, the problem is choosing just one to build. And no before any of you suggest it I am not going to "do an Enzo" and build them all! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
