trickyrich Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Ok I hadn’t planned this and I’m normally not that fond of part II or III etc GB’s, but this time I have to make an exception. The Nordic GB is currently still running for a few more weeks but I have to say it’s the most successful and popular I’ve ever run. There were some worried times that it might not get the votes or even make it to the voting! But it did and it went off!! We’ve had every type of model built other than a train or something space related, numerous multi-builds, 9 by one member I think is most. Plus I think we've caused a worldwide shortage of Draken and Viggen models. I thought this GB would have been enough to satisfy their cravings for everything Nordic, but I was wrong, it actually seems to have ignited it!!!! Seems you can never have enough Drakens or Viggens…and hopefully a 1/48th Saab 105! So it’s the same deal as before, the only new thing is there’s going to be a “Cooking with Bosse” episodes as well, no to be missed! Those already on the list please confirm here your intentions, to everyone else come and see what the fun was all about as we go on a European tour with Ragnar! 1, trickyrich - host.....who will not be building a Draken! 1a, JOCKNEY 2, reini - Co-Host 3, Marlin - Host of "Cooking with Bosse" 4, Christer A 5, desert falcon 6, LostCosmonauts 7, Wes 8, Col. - Co-Host 9, Corsairfoxfouruncle 10, MarkSH 11, Mozzy19 12, Marcin Kaminski 13, Avereda 14, modelling minion 15, Jabba 16, Arniec 17, Romeo Alpha Yankee 18, John Masters 19, Norman 20, Grandboof 21, kir 22, FortyEight 23, JeroenS 24, helios16v 25, stevej60 26, Scargsy 27, vppelt68 28, Whirly 29, exdraken 30, Roland Pulfrew 31, Richard E 32, Graeme H 33, Angus Tura 34, Jpthedog 35, Rob S 36, Hockeyboy76 37, Jinxman 38, grufsnik 39, Patthecat 40, Beazer 41, Mig Eater 42, Nimrod54 43, TonyOD 44, Rabbit Leader 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 2 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, they are neighbours at the museum (the Thulin G, not Friedrichshafen) I’ve been thinking to build that one too and have collected some nice images if you need them.
