TallBlondJohn Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Airfix Saturn 1B in the stash - my record with GB's is poor due to very slow build pace but it should be simple - right? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, indeed! It's a few tubes one atop the other with a cone atop them. You, sir, are a Steely Eyed Missile Man! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SleeperService Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 I'm up for this. I have a couple of suitable ideas and, more important, the bits I need to build them. I'd really like to do the Aires from Steven Baxter's voyage book. I don't think the Mercury Little Joe tests will qualify. Err no they won't 4.5km apogee doesn't quite cut it... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forgive me if I ask for the obvious, but this is the first time I'm considering participating, so I have no experience. And my poor English doesn't make it any easier 😉 I am planning to build my own version of a B-Wing (kitbash and scratch build like most of my recent work). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And my poor English doesn't make it any easier 😉 I am planning to build my own version of a B-Wing (kitbash and scratch build like most of my recent work). Hi Voozet! I'm sorry I missed this! Sometimes I browse on my phone and I missed your post. A B-wing would be a welcome addition to our inter-galactic flotilla. So it remains only to say: May the Force be With Us! How a GB works, I think there is a post somewhere but basically if we get to 30 names here, we go into "the Bunfight". This is a vote in November between all the GB ideas that got 30 names. If we survive the vote, then Enzo will assign our GB a time slot in the 2023 GB calendar. Usually a GB goes for 2-4 months I think. There may be 9 or 10 GBs in the year. If we do become an actual GB t's all fairly informal and the focus is on having fun and sharing a build with fellow ...in our case, SPACE FANS! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dansk Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 I have 2 BanDai Starwars Snowspeeders in the stash itching to be part of a gb, are they elligible with the first (100km) line in the rules? they have a flight ceiling of only 175 metres according to nerd sources on the web... however thats 175 metres above another planet than earth (so maybe that passes as its over 100km above earth)? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes - a snowspeeder is totally eligible! Sure enough they fly nap-of-the-Hoth, but Hoth is what, a billion light years above the Karman Line? Welcome aboard and I see the Imperial Fleet came out of Lightspeed too early so they're preparing a ground assault ..may the Force be With You!
