I had a thought and changed the title already but I do like your suggestions. I may use your suggestion as is or mash yours and mine together for something else but similar. cheers, Graham 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bertie McBoatface Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 I like the long title. It has a sense of humour! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marklo Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 Ah I see this is a rename and I’m already in. A build for all the neglected aspects of history/model making. I’ve been researching the DaVinci tank and Roman battle wagons in preparation. Hope it gets over the line. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit of a stretch but buildings do "float" on the ground however. In any case, perhaps another tweaking of the title is in order. cheers, Graham 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helios16v Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 Well then, if buildings are in, I do have this 1/72 Italeri church laying around... Originally got it for a hairbrained idea to use a diorama base for a pair of low level Italian F-104s. The idea hasn't gone anywhere at this point in time and everything is still in boxes. The whole diorama idea certainly wouldn't fly, but the church by itself would be old enough. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColonelKrypton Posted September 21, 2022 Author Share Posted September 21, 2022 Count is now up to 24 - that was a quick jump in numbers. Due to a bit of confusion I also updated the title - removed "run around" so it now reads Anything Wingy, Floaty, or on the Ground Thingy - From the Big Bang to Armistice Day - history we sometimes neglect Group Build How many do we need to get to the bun fight? 30? cheers, Graham 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, 30 is the magic number for bunfight entry for a normal GB. Once the number is achieved, ping or message Enzo and he'll get you added to the bunfight furball. Going to be a bloody one this year. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColonelKrypton Posted October 5, 2022 Author Share Posted October 5, 2022 Getting close to Bun Fight time ... Current count stands at 24 so a bit short of the magic number of 30, time to make some noise, rattle some chains, and stir pot to see who else is up for an interesting challenge. Any more? cheers, Graham 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColonelKrypton Posted October 6, 2022 Author Share Posted October 6, 2022 Good morning all, We are now at 25 of the needed 30 interested participants needed to get to the Bun Fight. Quote "The greater danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low, and achieving our mark.“ - Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni Anyone else up for the challenge of taking on something a bit more unusual than their usual subjects and giving yourself the opportunity to play outside your usual comfort zone? Nothing ventured, nothing gained. cheers, Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Stuart Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 Got one of these on the way... That crossbow and pavaise (shield) were advanced technology in XVc Italy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crossbows I have seen but I don't recall ever noticing a shield shaped in such a way. Glad you posted. Reminded me to wave the flag as it were for this proposed group build as we still need a few more interested participants. cheers, Graham 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
