Any requests?

Just so I can try and cover all the bases in this little corner of the forum, I would like to hear what you would like to see as a special interest build item.

So I can take it as no one is interested in further SIG builds.....

Only just noticed this Ian.

I'm certainly interested in more, i'm loving this bike one.

I'm open to all manner of things but quite fancy another civilian one but car related next please :idea:

Especially as i've just gotten a couple of US cars including a Plymouth Belvedere, (Christine), though don't know i'm ready to tackle that particular one yet.

[Ian M]

Herewith noted m1ks! A car build some time in the future!

How about a bit of Sci-Fi?

[Ian M]

Ah now the ball has started rolling. This is good.

A sci-fi Hmmm. That could be fun.

Noted.

[Ian M]

I would like to suggest a what if but not sure if that would be an SIG or GB.....Time will tell.

sci-fi sounds good,i have a maquis fighter in my stash

How about steam power, anything steam drivern, Trains, boats traction engines, steam plants like in the old days, if you can find the kits that is, there were some fantastic bits of machinary that powered the old mills and a like, one would make a great little show piece with its copper and brass coloured boiler.

Good one Andy. As you say it might be a bit of a challenge in its self to find kits of anything other than trains. And I think Live steam will be a bit much for the most of us.

Yeh, like the steam idea too

[Guest]

Sorry Ian, i didnt mean a working model just a replica.

Andy

[Guest]

Steam sounds good

I like the idea of steam, but does it have to be plastic then? I've built a Meccano Burrell Showman's Engine in the past and could probably get a working stationary engine built from Meccano as well

Anime would be a cool diversion from the norm

[Guest]

Hope i'm on the right track here ??

How about an animal themed build (mostly going to be from scratch i admit) with an additional that the main subject should be set in a "non-distracting" (but relevant) small diorama?

Another idea would be to pick a short period of time in history and build any relevant model from that time (would be easy to check authenticity with the knowledge on here and t'interweb)
