1944 Group Build

Yea Bish, I dont know how I lived before the internet came into being. LOL Now, I’d be really lost without it.

On this note: before I found this forum, I was on a commercial truck and equipment model forum and we started a thread where we posted a picture of ourselves so every one could see who they were talking to. I think we should do that to. Where can we post it. ? If everyone wants to do that, of course.

I think we had one of those before Ken, but that would have been a few years ago and of course we have had a lot of new members since. If you want to do that, go for it, I would certainly add mine. I reckon it would fit nicely in the ready room.

If you do, just stress that your not expecting people to post if they do not feel comfortable to do so, but only if they wish to.

By the way, seeing the 43 and 44 badges together, I rather like that. They suit each other very well. I’ll have to have a word with Clemens about that.

Thanks for the info. I like the banner that is available. One comment - can we add 2014 to is somewhere, or am I missing it?

I take it you mean the middle of the 3 badge options. No, that one doesn’t have the 2014 on it. Its not always nessacery to add the dates of the build to the badge, some do some don’t. It would be for wayne to decide if he wants to add the 2014 to the badge.

works for me. My skirts came in today. They’re not mesh… but that’s still fine. Solid works. I’m going hunting better tracks next.

I am a huge fan of Fruils, that’s what I have for my Pz IV, but they are a bit pricey. modelkasten are another brand that seem popular, but I have never tried them.

ask and it shall be given

Nice!

Squadron.com has a 30% sale for the next few hours. I’ll see what they have…

so i can start building at 311700T DEC13. cool. now to decide what to do. i do have a started 1/35 VOSPER and TYPE XXVII which aren’t even at the paint stage. or i could start a FLAK halftrack.or a ww2 german fire truck

LOL, well it does run for a year wayne, no rush.

it’s not as if i don’t have anything to build finish.

Just the odd one or two lol

Hi guys,

I’d like to change my tune. I have a 1/48 Academy P-38J that I’d like to get at. Not entirely sure what exact one I’ll do yet, but it will be a Pacific Theatre birdie.

Please change me from the Spit to the Lightning.

Thanks!

Allen

No problem Allen.

hey bish

happy new year over there.

and i won’t be starting anything at 1700 loc al time but it was a thought. i may go a little goofy on this one. even though the G-4 staff cars were built in '39 i suspect they were still around in '44. saw it in a movie so it must be true. may do that or the fire truck or the just ordered minart european tram. why not? i’m the only guy doing JGSDF stuff in the japanese GBs so…

i’ll let you know. sorry for the confusion…

No problem wayne, plenty of time to decide what you want to do, I am not sure yet. At the moment, its between a 251/9 and a Pz IV J. Going to try and do more armour this year.

warwheels for me (mostly trucks) plus some modern german fire apparatus. will still get wierd with the big excavator and the D9R bulldozer and maybe a big choo choo. if i need something light will do PLA or JGSDF stuff.

And we’re off

Woohoo!. Ok I downloaded these 2 books from Amazon for the Pz IVJ I’m building.

www.amazon.com/…/ref=pd_ys_iyr1 - a how to book on the panzer IV J. I like it.

www.amazon.com/…/ref=pd_ys_iyr2

Can never have too much info. Happy New Year guys!

Happy New Year folks.

Finally, I get to open the boxes…
