(Update) Elefant G.B. starting Feb. 13

Due to enthusiasm beyond my control, I moved the start date to this coming Sunday. My apologies to anyone who hasn’t got all their goods. I’m still waiting for my zimmerit to get here, probably around the weekend. End date will still be D-Day, June 6th. I’ll be starting Monday myself.

Oh, God! I am not ready!!! Ahhh! Just kidding. All set

Sounds like you will have a lot of fun with this one tigerman! Unfortunately, I won’t be able to participate with all the stuff I’ve got going on. [:(]

alright, it works for me. Now I have to fight myself to hold off starting it until I finish my tiger and chi-ha.

I myself am trying hard to finish a build so I can concentrate entirely on this build, no distractions.

YEah I am trying to get everything cleared off the workbench too. Everytime I knock a build out, I get to more started. At this rate, I will have 40 partially built kits come Fall

I’ll probably have about the same.
I was just thinking, it starts the 13th! bad luck…[:O][xx(][:P]

We could start Valentines day. That ought to go ever well. “Honey it’s time to take the kids to the babysitters and go to dinner”…“Ah you know this is the first day of the Group Build”…Ka-pow of a frying pan, followed by steely silence. The 13th sounds good enough. [;)][:o)]

Bit tied up with the group Tiger I build (two of them… heh heh) but will begin on it soon, just as a side project until the Tigers are done. I’ve always wanted to build my Elefant :slight_smile:

uh… and for the previously started kits? [:D]

Works for me, my bench is clear except for the armored car weekend (and a paper I’m supposed to be writing - oh well).

And the problem is…???

You’re right. I must join every GB in existance and also complete every old GB that I missed. Need more caffeine

OK Eric! The 13th it is. [bow][bow][bow] Let’s start our engines. Semper Fi, mike

Well, as long as your not to the applying decal stage. LOL

You heard Eric, Geoffrey! Now spit that decal out or you’re disqualified.LOL. [yuck] Semper Fi, mike

ha… no, not that far… just the lower part is ALMOST done. it’s only my 2rd attempt at indys so that is taking me a while as i don’t want to mess it up…

I have a question on the colors used for the Ferdinand/Elefant/Bergetigers

  1. Was red primer used? or was the yellow a primer?
  2. What is the name of the yellow base coat and the green and brown used for the soft edge camo?
  3. Were they the same colors used for the spider web/giraffe camo pattern, just green or brown over the yellow.
  4. For a scale effect should the colors be lightened up? With white?

Just four more days till the GB starts![:D][:)][8D]

Cool! i’m ready, but I’ll be starting late. I’ve got a few other Group Builds, and some independent Builds I want to get done with first. Thanks for the Heads Up.

Let’s start a New Thread that can be Stickied, so that everyone can start off fresh, and post their Prgress they have gotten from before the Build started!

I really hate to see it go to the G.B. Forum, people tend to forget about it and the casual observer won’t even go there. I forget about them forum myself. With numerous posts it should stay on the front page. Any thoughts?
