Random Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 (edited) Hi all, I know that my modelling skills aren't fantastic (nothing compared to some of the stunning work seen here on a daily basis), but I would love to host a GB - I have webspace and web design experience for the site, and I hope that I can hold stuff together!! (I also own the domain name groupbuilds.com, so if anyone in the future wants a /xyzbuild site, let me know). Anyway, I was just wondering if there would be any interest in holding a F-8/A-7 GB? It hasn't been done for a good few years and thought that it would be nice to have another go. So I'm just probing to see if anyone would be interested? All the best, Ben Edited February 8, 2009 by Random Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GVoakes Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Depending on the timing, I would be interested. This would give me a reason to start one of the A-7s or F-8s that I have sitting in the stash. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Random Posted February 13, 2009 Author Share Posted February 13, 2009 OK guys, the Build has been approved! It starts on 1/10/2009, so you have plenty of time to sort stuff out! The rules will be the same as last time: 1) Only 25% or Unstarted kits will be allowed to enter the GB. 2) All models must be an A-7 or a F-8. 3) All models must be completed within the the 2 dates set. 4) Any Era of A-7 and F-8's will be allowed. 5) Any User of the A-7/F-8 will be allowed. 6) What If's are allowed now. 7) Any scale no restrictions there. 8) You can build as many models as you like.
