They are working on getting the calendar and threads up to date for the GBs ending and those starting March 1st. All is well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Don Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 ...I just picked up Revell's 1/32 He-111 today and I may build it rather then the B-24. The He-111 kit is HUGE! This GB will be a dandy !! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As I said in the post about the 1/48 XB-70, there are abandoned air bases around with extra hangars. You would have to rent one.

Litvyak Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 How about ex-bombers? Like say the B-47 used to test the Orenda Iroquois engine, or the RCAF's jet-Lancaster, or SAR Lancaster or B-17, etc? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bigasshammm Posted March 23, 2016 Author Share Posted March 23, 2016 I picked up 3 more 1/72 B-17 kits which I think brings me up to 12-14 or so. I'm going to add one of the RoG kits as a raffle prize for completed entries. Is it September yet? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Don Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 I picked up 3 more 1/72 B-17 kits which I think brings me up to 12-14 or so... You could always sell the 12-14 1/72 B-17's and you'll have lots of room for a 1/32 B-17 or two ...now THERE'S a beast ;) ! :lol: Don. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Already have one. But I'm not ready to build it yet. When I do it'll be my grandfathers plane and I'll have or build a big display to put it in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Don Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Dude I am jealous! I'd love to grab a B-17 in 1/32 but its cost prohibitive right now and I have amassed a lot of BIG 1/32 kits recently...if I walked through the door with one of those bad boys under my arm I could just imagine my wifes reaction (and she's my biggest fan and supporter) :lol: !

jester292 Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Hmmmm, 1:48 Monogram B-24 or B-29? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nspreitler Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 I'm sure I'll change my mind a few times but I have a Monogram B-17 with all the True Detail resin (of which I won't use much), Quickboost engines, Eduard exterior set, and a few aftermarket decal sets, and metal lading gear. I also have the B-29 which I plan to do as Kee Bird. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dnl42 Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 I'm thinking of an Amodel 1/144 Lancaster B.III in the Dambuster boxing or a Pitroad 1/144 Vulcan B2 with that spiffy Fundecals sheet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dnl42 Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 (edited) Never mind... Edited March 26, 2016 by dnl42 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bigasshammm Posted March 26, 2016 Author Share Posted March 26, 2016 Those all sound great. Like to see someone do something more modern like a B-2, B-1, or B-52 or something. I've got a 1/200 B-1 I'll probably throw together. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
falcon20driver Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 If the HK B-17F comes out in time I'll be in. I won't finish it in 6 months but I'll enjoy joining in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bigasshammm Posted April 20, 2016 Author Share Posted April 20, 2016 You can do it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
falcon20driver Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Got my HK B-17F ordered, and I'm in with it. It will unsurprisingly be wearing the colors of the Belle. Not a chance in heck of finishing it, but I'll enjoy participating. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bigasshammm Posted June 2, 2016 Author Share Posted June 2, 2016 Sweet. When's that come out? There's a lot of aftermarket for the G kit that I'm sure could be adapted. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
falcon20driver Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Its quoted as sometime this month. I've got the after market decals already, and I think I might buy metal gun barrels but thats probably it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
