Guys, probably not a huge numbers of Japanese AFV modelers out there but there are some kits so I felt I should post over here about Japanese Group Build Part II. Didn’t get any armour kits built in Part I and I’m tempted to build one myself if no- one enters!
Only a few simple rules, I’d rather have fun and not get caught up on details:
Start date January 1, 2013.
Run time till December 31, 2013. No extensions, if there is enough interest we’ll see about a part III!
Japanese subjects (which I’ll define as fighting under Japanese colours- aka a captured P-40 with Japanese markings and flown by a Japanese pilot would be considered ‘Japanese’)
Cross-overs welcome
Pre-started kits fine as long as they’re under 50% completed (assembled but not painted).
Any ‘roll-over’ non-completions from part I are welcome.
I am leaning toward Second World War only since almost all the interest has been toward this. If anyone wants to do anything else please throw it out for discussion.
And have fun guys and gals!
The post is up and ready for sign-ups on the Group Builds forum now.
i have a modern JGSDF 6x6 type 97 recon vehicle and an 8x8 type 96 WAPC"B" and a modern KONGO. i do need to get back into warwheels and try my hand at 3 color camo patterns.
Terry: Fantastic, really neat kit, love to see it if you decide to jump in with us.
Wayne: I’d slapped the name Imperial Japanese GB on it since in part one we had only Second World War entries but I’d love to have any of those modern subjects if you do chose to join us.
Guys, the post is up on the GB forum for sign-ups and running for a year so drop in anytime!
