    Time to start thinking...

    As there is not thatlong until the next GB starts I thought I would just give you all a heads up.

    Time to start thinking and buying in.

    Some thing that is or has been alive. Factual, fictional or fantasy. Just NO bog standard human beings.

    Got mine and ready to go Ian.

    I've got an AMT Gigantics Huge tarantula Diorama kit. Never done anything like this before so it'll be fun.

    Cheers

    Tony.

          Doesn't Colin keep tarantulas as pets? Let's hope he doesn't try and take the easy option and just dry freeze one to add to a dio!

                This was certainly discussed for a while Paul as a few had the same idea as yourself...

                I think it was finalised basically as anything that could be classed as ''biological'' from real life or the fantasy world ... Minotaurs, dinosaurs, dragons, elves, elephants, tigers etc would all come into the category....

                And to quote Ian, our leader in this, ''if you're building a tree, it better be a bloody good one!!''

                    We can always change the title to NO HUMANS ALLOWED...

                    But then there would always be someone that askes if they can build a robot..

                    We could call it ANY THING THAT HAS LIVED, IS LIVING, MIGHT OF LIVED, LIVES ON AN OTHER PLANE, PLANET OR JUST SOME DARK AND TWISTED CORNER OF YOUR MIND. (JUST AS LONG AS ITS NOT A HUMAN).

                        I only suggested this GB because I had the tarantula dio in the stash, I didn't mean to cause trouble, sorry.

                        Tony.

                              You might have suggested it Tony but it won a place in the calender by votes from the members. Well four of them anyway.

                              We can always take the first runner up....If this one is to much of a challenge.
