Welcome and Rules


Recommended Posts

Welcome to the Armoured Cars and Half-tracks GB!
The hosts for this GB are @Marklo and myself.

 

Thank you to everyone who's joining in or just following along. I'm looking forward to some interesting builds!

 

The rules for the GB are:

A group build to include Armoured Cars or Half-tracks, held between 29 Oct 22 and 19 Feb 23.


Definitions for this build:

  • An armoured car is an armoured ground vehicle that does not use tracks.
    It must have an armoured compartment protecting crew, engine, or other significant areas.  This may be included in the initial construction, or have been applied later in the vehicle's life.
  • To be a half-track, a vehicle must be capable of travelling on tracks.  At least one wheel is useable for steering or propulsion.   See outliers, below.
    It need not be armoured.
  • No fully tracked vehicles.
  • Military or civilian types are acceptable.
     

Any scale of model is allowed, your model can be as big or as small as you like.

No buying or selling in the GB, there is a dedicated section of the forum for that.

All kits must not be any more than 25% complete at the start of your build thread.  If you are unsure then please ask Marklo or myself.

You must keep an updated thread with pictures going, no going from box art to finished model with nothing in between.

Be civil to each other, we all have our own techniques and ideas on what to do but don't go trying to force them on others.

And most importantly, HAVE FUN! That is what this is all about.

 

Enjoy the group build!

p.s. Haven't signed up, but want to join the fun?  If you are confident your kit fits the constraints above, please feel free to start a thread.
You may start building on or after 29 Oct.

 

p.p.s.  This is a group build, please support each other's threads.  A friendly comment means a lot more than a like.
