Jimz, I may be in too. Just visited the Unreliable Ones and my order arrived tonight. It included a TamiyaF-84G Thunderjet and a F-4D1-1 Skyray. (They were on special offer[:I])
The Dog Sabre didn’t materialise. Sooooo, would one of the above qualify??
Also, what exactly is requried on a group build? Never done one, before.
Lord, help me as I take this plunge into the unknown.

The rules are that the aircraft must be a real paint scheme. Must be a Natural Metal Finish and has to be done by October 31. No posts until then. Thanks for asking.
I’ve got so many to consider in NMF. Maybe it’s time I do a b-58 (after the USMC build) or p80. I saw a resin conversion for an F105B…hmmmm.
Think I’ll go out and buy a box of nestle crunch bars (sweet tooth and thin foil) and ponder.
if I may ask, why no posts until then? I thought the idea was to babble on to each other as we progressed? Ask advice etc…?
Anyways, I might just shell out for a detail set from Aires. See, when I find myself actually talked into doing something, I tend t o get sucked into it ever deeply, kinda like being carried forward under my own momentum.
or something like that.
Ask Oggy, he does it to me all the time.
I mean no photos until then. At least finished photos. That is the way that the USMC Group Build is going. I figured I would use the same policy.
Is that the Monogram B-58?
A friend of mine has one it is very large and impressive.
That is the one type of model I would like ot see. I can’t do my Monogram B-29. I am not
ready for that monster of a project, one and two, I live in a studio apartment and just don’t have the room for it. SOMEDAY.
Okay, this is my first group build too, and i just want to make sure i get it right: No pics of the final model until the 31st of October, right? Progress pics are alright, right? [:)]
Looks like this thread has been out there a while but I just saw it. I’m building a KI-61 Tony, planning to use foil on it. Does that count? I planned to publish some in progress photos anyway…
Yeah, it’s the monogram model. I got 2 of 'em (one’s destined for a SEA finish). Not so sure if I’ve got the room for it either. It’s about 30" long. The B1 in 48th is even larger.
i’m in on this. i have a Hawker P1127 on my “to build” pile and it’s begging to get built. Hey Woody. if you where planing to do one of those P1127s that you got from me i’ll choose something else. probably a pre war SABINA DC3 as i have the decals for this and a spare dak. or maybe a BEA dak. hmmmmmmm decisions decisions. ok i think i’ll do the dak anyways.

i have changed my mind, i will probably be doing a Saab aircraft. don’t know which yet but i’ll let you know. possably a lansen or J29.
I am definately in. I have a p-51d I am going to be doing for a friend and a p47n I will be doing for myself. However, I doubt I can actually start them for a couple of months due to some other important builds before them, so I love the October ending date; it will give me something to really strive for this summer! Hopefully the NMF isn’t as hard as everyone says it is
