[Ian M]

Please post suggestion for the coming years Special Group Builds in this thread.

Note the subtle change. No longer Special Interest GB. Just Special Group builds.....I have a plan.

Please get your thinking hats on. I want some spectacular ideas here.

Hi Ian, howsabout a group build centred around memories of childhood TV show? I got the idea after the build of the firey pheonix from battle of the planets from the recent what if group build. For example mebbe you could do the revell london double decker bus, ties in with the 70s kids show the double deckers

Cheers, Andrew

civilian vehicles adjusted/improvised for wartime.

this should need a bit of research first then a tidy bit of scratch building to make it happen.... should take a while to do really.

Nightfighter one would be great and maybe a Moto one as well

How about Emergency vehicals civillian or military ?

[Guest]

a build that must include water,be it pond river sea,or canal not just a puddle or bucket with water in.

How about "Beauty and the Beast" ? a pair of models ,(aircraft or cars ,I dont think it would work with armour or ships) somehow linked with one being a beautiful specimen of the genre ,the other an ugly dog ie.Supermarine Scimitar and Fairey Gannet. Of course beauty is in the eye of the beerholder but you get the idea , cheers tony

How about something that goes on water which is not a boat/ship (Seaplane, DUKW etc.)

maybe a "cut and shut".....

two models (tank. boat. car) chopped into one vehicle

[mossiepilot]

What about Rockets, space rockets, rocket planes, military rockets and rocket launchers, not aircraft or tanks with rocket armament. It can be as easy or as hard as you want to make it.

What about a mixed Sci Fi theme. ie Star Wars figures in battle with Warhammer figures.

Have a idea.... Not crashed!! Just abandoned and rusty, very rusty militar vehicle.

I have seen one model in a magazine and looks pretty nice, interesting and a good theme for practice our skills.

Or a vehicle just go out of factory without painting yet, is Ok too!!

[Guest]

How about some of these:

Models from a Gerry Anderson TV Series or Movie

Air-Sea Rescue vehicles (includes spotter planes, boats as well as choppers)

WWII figure diorama (ie a diorama or vignette with just figures, no motorised vehicles - maybe a push-bike or hand cart)

Steam powered vehicles or machinery (trains, ships, traction engines)

5th Generation Stealth Fighters

VTOL's
