Mike N Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 It's got huge rotor type things stuck onto the top of it, looks helicoptery to me, so unless Metallicus has any objections I'd say it was okay Gary Excellent, I'll be there!

AnonymousDFB1 Posted December 25, 2012 Author Share Posted December 25, 2012 Doesn't this clash with the USN GB? John Not a clash, there is an overlap, This GB starts 8th June 2013 and the USN GB starts 4th August 2013. We run quite a few GBs at the same time.

Will Vale Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Very keen to join this one, there's a swarm of Helicopters on my shelf (I love them, they look cool) and all are un-built (because I'm chicken). What to do? Lynx, Wessex, Hind, Sea Dragon, Seaking or something else? Will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Procopius Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Wessex, it's the friendliest-looking helicopter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bootneck Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Well just been looking in the stash and have the following: Two Italeri Merlins in 1:72 An Airfix 1:72 AEW Sea King A 1:48 OH-6 My Revell 1:32 Lynx will of course be built in the Lynx STGB Now what shall I build? Same problem here. I have, amongst others: Westland Wasp - 1:48 Fujimi Gazelle - 1:48 (ish) Heller Hughes MD500 - 1:48 Fujimi Sea King - 1:48 Hasegawa Dragonfly - 1:48 Fonderie Miniature Puma - 1:48 (ish) Heller Whirlwind - 1:48 Revell Sea King - 1:144 Sweet Wessex - 1:144 Anigrand Gazelle - 1:144 Anigrand Dragonfly 1:144 Anigrand (would need to convert from R5 prototype) Merlin - 1:144 Anigrand Whirlwind 1:144 FE-Resin Mi-8/17 Hip - 1:144 Eastern Express Mi-26 Halo - 1:144 Eastern Express plus the usual 1:48 Chinooks, Wessex and Sea Kings by Revell, Italeri and Airfix etc. I think my decision will become a last-minute panic choice!

chadders Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I think I may join in with this one. I picked up one of the Italeri Skyfall Merlins for £7.99,that will fit the bill quite nicely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzio Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Count me in this one god knows with what tho... Kind Regards Dazz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palacefan Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 i will definately have a go at this one. i just hope my newly fired up, but spluttering a little, modelling mojo, is running smoothly by then. and keeps running long enough to finish a model.

Bengalensis Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 I think I will be very tempted to join in. I haven't built a helicopter since I was a kid, and that's some time ago... I just recently got Hasegawa's 1/48 Sea King, the box with # 66 from the Apollo rescue missions, mainly due to my interest for the 60's space programme, with the idea to build it as just before the Apollo 11 rescue. It looks a bit scary in the box and I don't really know how to best paint such a thing... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heloman1 Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 I think after your recent bike build Jorgen the Sea King will be a piece of cake. It's a nice kit with plenty of fine detail OOB should do fine but I'm sure you'll want to go further! Colin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintsPhil Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Well I seem to join every other GB going so why not this one!! I've got a couple of Ruski Helos in the stash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveJL Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Think I'm going for a 1/48 MH-53J Pave Low and, if I have time, a 1/48 AH-6J Little Bird. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
