Made In USSR GB

This is the group build for things made in the USSR! Crossovers, WIPs (less than 50%), everyone is welcome. The starting date will be May 25, and it will end one year later, so there is plenty of time. Aftermarket, conversions, scratchbuilt, go ahead! One more note: lend lease vehicles are not allowed, but Soviet vehicles used by other countries (example: T-62 in Czech markings) are okay. Have a blast everyone!

Thank you ozzman

Here is the official badge:

As much as i would love to take part in this GB, i am refraing from any new ones for a while because i am so up to my neck in other builds. But there was a Soviet Union GB that finished less than a year ago.

/forums/t/119859.aspx?PageIndex=1

I could be wrong, and hopefully i am, but it could be a bit soon for another one. But if it gets off the ground, i will watch from afar.

Probably. I’ve got bunch of Soviet Cold War armored vehicle kits in the stash.

really intrested but actually involved in four gb (one with a mig) also on the workbench a yak-28 and a kamov ka-18, a mig-29ub but already subject of single wips [:(]

on stash again a su-34 and a mig-23 , an antonov 2 and the russian carrier Admiral Kuznetsov.

If i will made good progress on others GB like to join later [Y]

I have ordered the Katyusha so if this GB takes off, I am in

I’ve finally just got round to cracking open Trumpeters 1/72 Tu-160, its started but I’m only got to the point of building the seats & painting the some cockpit parts… added to that, it’s not likely to be finished any time soon.

So depending on the timescale & weather I can join considering that I have already started?

I’d be interested.I already have a kit in mind.

Well, I see the GB might get off the ground. If I get ten people to join, I will do it. So spread the word plz!

Thank you, ozzman.

as long as it’s less than 50% complete sure

So far there is four people who are willing to join. six moar to go.

Its nice to be proved wrong now and again lol. I won’t be able to ake part, but will look in from afar.

If crossovers are allowed I am game. I have a barely started MiG-17 I will be tackling on the MiG GB. But it wont be till Mid Summer at least…

Perfect timing, just received the 1/48 Eduard La-7 weekend! [:)]

Put me in for either a DML 1/35th BMP (have to dig in the stash to see what version) or a DML 1/35th T-72. These are from a 20+ year stash and i need to build some of them rather than buy new stuff.

I have a Trumpeter MiG 3 that is just looking for an excuse to be bumped to the head of the production line… what are the start/end dates of the GB?

What he said. I’m also in the Panzer III GB that starts 1 July. Doesn’t really matter, I’ve got a pretty empty dance card.

What about the GB badge? I’m no good with Photoshop, but I can skillfully snark from the back of the room.

I’d like to jump in on this. I do not have a kit yet but I can look around to see what I can acquire! I will let you know what i can build if and when this GB becomes official.

I can also help with the badge if you need me to.

The badge… lots of bad ideas come to mind:

Made in USSR, Fixed in Poland

Made in USSR, not for domestic use

In Soviet Russia, model makes you!

Made in USSR, Bozhe moi!

[dto:] with mig-31

if not too busy i’ll add after the su-34 (in the box, only some weapon glued) or the antonov (just some glued part)

I like that one!!
