plasticWerks_JL Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 I might be able to participate in this GB as well, more than likely building the Italeri UH-1C in Seawolves markings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Drifterdon Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 (edited) Any idea when the mods are going to give this a dedicated spot in the GB file? Edited August 18, 2015 by Drifterdon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tosouthern66 Posted August 18, 2015 Author Share Posted August 18, 2015 Probably the week we start the build. Keep your eyes open! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Drifterdon Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 (edited) Disregard my last. I just figured out banners. Edited August 19, 2015 by Drifterdon Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Aaronw Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 (edited) So what guidelines exist for accuracy? I picked up the old (1966 stamped into the castings) Revell / Monogram M48A2 on clearance for $9. I'm almost certain that the markings are pure fantasy, but it is clearly intended to be a tank used in the (then current) Vietnam War, and M48s were there... I got this kit with the same markings for my birthday somewhere 1978-80 and plan to build it mostly OOB. I picked it up to build for me, so not a big hardship if it is decided that it doesn't really fit the GB. In fact it is calling to me as I type so it may be complete before the GB starts... :whistle:/> Still the question might be useful to others, even if my willpower fails.

Litvyak Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Aaron: I'd think that kit would fall into the spirit of the GB. Also, a bit of bad news from my part - having fairly wrecked my right thumb, I won't be able to build anything for a while. Hopefully it'll be healed up and dexterity enough will return in time for me to get at least one build done! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dotcom Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 (edited) Soon this will start, and there is no excuse to start my old Hasegawa Crusader Marines 1/72, and if there is time I'll throw in a Airforce Phantom as well! @Litvyak Wish you a speedy recovery!

Drifterdon Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 So last night I remembered that stashed away in my Cave of Doom is the old Monogram "Three Fighting Men" Vietnam Memorial Statue kit. I know this kind of out of the theater of battle and it was quite some time after the war ended but would this in some way fit in with the GB theme? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
john53 Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 And the name of the group build is? Seems VERY appropriate to me, but that's me.---John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Drifterdon Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 It seems to fit right in but the "TFM" memorial wasn't done until 1984, two years after the wall was completed. Heck, between the Skyraider and Bird Dog I'm planning on doing, I may not even get around to this one. Would be nice to have in the hip pocket though. Need to finish and give to my wife's uncle who was a stern gunner on PBR's during the war. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
