Please post when you’ve decided which kit you are going to build and I’ll update this post.
Here’s the GB Badge, I have no preference if you wish to use it now or wait until you are done. I would just ask that you download the image to your own server instead fo linking to site for the server. Thanks.
I would like to be part of this group build. I havn’t decided what kit I will be doing for sure, however I am leaning towards tamiyas KV-2. I will post when I have purchased the kit.
Ken, welcome to the GB, FSM forum, and back to modeling. I have the same kit also, I built the Ausf B and thought that was a great kit. I like the side skirts that came with the Ausft G.
Frankly, I was hoping to do some research and find an example without the zim… Otherwise, I’m stalling until I get more of it built, hoping for someone to release a PE or resin kit… [:-^]
This build will also be my first work with an airbrush, so I’m doing the full-court newbie press!
Here’s a picture of one from a musem in France without Zim, I’ve seen some other sources onthe web also
Hauler & Lion’s roar makes PE for the short barrel version, but I think most of the stuff will fit on the G model. I used Lion’s roar PE for the B model, as it was one of the cheapest in relationship to what you got for your money. It even included a metal barrel. I got it through luckymodel from HK for about $10 US and I think they have free shipping for Lion’s roar & hauler stuff. Lion’s roar is made in China, so you get a much better deal from a HK source.
picked up the KV-2. I am good to go. I have to hold off on starting till I get my current project done, but I should be rolling on this in a month or so. Looking forward to seeing what you guys turn out!
Welcome hkshooter. J West, kv-2 it is. I’ve updated the list, I’m impress some of you guys are planning to do 2 builds. I have the HobbyBoss t-34 with full interior I was planning to do for the armor interior GB, maybe I can fit it in 2 GBs!
Also great to see support for this scale, I would hate to see it go away.
