Maginot Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 This might be my excuse to attempt the Tamiya Mitsubishi Ki-46 III Type 100 Command Recon Plane. Put me down (be gentle, please 🤓). 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveyGair Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Count me in please, I should have my Mojo back by 2024 surely, quite enjoying my Meteor build at the moment and got a couple to enter in GB's next year. I'll definitely be doing an Airfix Beaufort with an HPM DAP P&W conversion to do an RAAF bird, an early one probably. Also have an AZ Hampden and a few different Soviet types including the intriguing Yermolayev Yer-2 (an Amodel kit which I've never built an kit from this manufacturer🙄).

JOCKNEY Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 Quick question, if you were to build a French plane in Vichy colours would it be OK in this GB, or the Allies Twin GB or would I have to start a 3rd, "Sitting on the Fence" Twin GB ? Cheers Pat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArnoldAmbrose Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Gidday Pat aka @JOCKNEY, I believe Vichy French aircraft actually attacked HMS Sheffield off Gibraltar. In my book that would make them an 'enemy' if I were aboard the Shiny Sheff. But I don't know if Vichy France was part of the definition of 'Axis". The GB leader has the decision I guess.

vppelt68 Posted January 5, 2023 Author Share Posted January 5, 2023 I think only the French stick to believing the Vichy was 100% neutral. In Europe, I would only count Ireland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland as sitting on the fence. V-P 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOCKNEY Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Thanks Gents I suppose you could build an Italian aircraft with one paint scheme and decals in this GB then the same aircraft with later paint scheme and alternative decals in the Allied twin GB for later on in the war?

Cheers Pat Yes I'd take that as such. Also, for example, shouldn't Finnish aircraft post September -44, that were turned against the Germans in the Lapland War, also be included in the Allied GB 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for the repeat if this has already been discussed. Regards, Jeff. Thanks Jeff, we have indeed discussed this with James! We regard that as the last possible option, though, as both subjects deserve their own group builds. There are many Britmodellers that would like to participate in both, and four months may not be enough to build two Twins. Thus, it would be optimal to have both, separate group builds and schedule them in the calendar so that they wouldn't overlap at all. So, I hope many of us join the list and remember to VOTE if we make it to the Bunfight 🙂. V-P 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
81-er Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 As this one is rapidly approaching the point of entering the Bunfight, I feel it's only fair to mention the Axis Twins GB as well. I know many of you have signed up for it, but for any who haven't, please consider it. It's very much the hope of VP and myself that we get both GBs into the calender James 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
