Anyone? Are we all that caught up in WW2 GB’s?

This sounds fun, as I have not built any on your list… Count me in as a maybe. Need to see if I can clean my table of the other bilds that I need to finish, and if Santa will bring me one of the listed planes…

Rudy,

I would say that since this seems to be an extremely open ended GB, you can sign me up with the following kits:

Revell of Germany 1/48 Rafale B

Revell of Germany 1/48 Eurofighter Typhoon

Italeri 1/48 F-22

And if I get all those done I have a MiniHobby Su-30 in my stash as well that I could throw in the mix. Now to find the time to get to building all these kits. By the way, the RoG Rafale and Typhoon Kits both look very impressive and are just begging to be built!!!

Sorry about the lack of updates people, my comp was down for a while. Mph34 and Blkhawkmatt, I’ll have you listed.

6

Weird: I’ve the exact same three kits you do, go figure . . .

However, that being said, I can only commit to actually finishing one or two kits between now & the end of time (yes, I’m that slow), so sign me up for the Rafale (actually, I think mine is the “M” model, not the “B”, but W/E), and/or the Typhoon (I need a little motivation anyway, this is a good way to do it). Thanx!

P.S. Rudy: Where did you get that quote for your signature? Sounds like something Rob Zombie would say. BTW, I’m still trying to figure out how to get that quote into my signature; I’m working on it!

Sorry again for the lack of updates, as the computer likes to periodically go down on me. SoD, I’ll have you listed.

Has anyone thought of a badge for this GB, I could see what I can come up with if I have the time and if rudy dosnt mind.

I’m no good at Paintshop (got it, but never used it); maybe someone else here could come up with a good badge. I was trying to think of something, some symbol, that represents all of the modern “superfighters”, but nothing comes to mind.

You know what, that’s not true; how about a six-pointed star symbol, with the nose of each of the five aircraft (F-22, F-35, Flanker, EF2000, Rafale, and Grypen) being one of the points? I’ll see what I can do . . .

And, Matt, you’re probably better at this than I am anyway, have at it!

10

SoD, that is a great idea! Blkhwkmatt, try doing that with all the listed planes. That would look awesome!

Rudy,

I will be more than happy to attempt to create a Badge, however I do not have photoshop. I’ll have to see what I can come up with this week and get back with you guys on it.

Alright, but you don’t have to repeat it 3 times. [:P]

16

Rudy,

Sorry bout that, my connection was acting a bit funny ehen I tried to post that guess that I hit the post button 3 times. [oops]

Matt

17

Put me down for a Revel 1/48 EFA Typhoon. Not sure of country yet. If I can find a good F-22 and/or F-35, I may do those as well.

Sorry everyone for being dead the last month or so, but I have caught Pokemon fever anew, and a forum I have discovered is eating up all my time. mph34, I’ll have you down on the list.

19

HELLO!!! Anyone out there!!!

I myself haven’t started on anything for this GB as of yet; has anyone else?

20

I am still here, but have so many unfinished kits right now that I will have to wait to start any new ones. On a positive note, I will be building one of the kits this year though. Last year was a complete wash since I was busy overseas. Glad to be back in the real world though and trying to find time to get to the workbench.
