Ian M's Battleship/Destroyer. GB Idea

[Ian M]

I would like to propose a GB for Battleships. Any nation, 1/350 and up....
Now I know these things can take a long time to build and paint so I was thinking of throwing it right open and have it run for the whole of 2017. If that's to much then six months would probably be enough....
 


We have a few ship builders on here so what's the general felling about this idea?

[ojays]

I'd be up for this one, got my mojo back!

[Ian M]

I was torn between suggesting this or a 1/35 boat....

[Guest]

Although I'm not a ship builder, I'm kinda interested in this idea Ian. Put me down as a provisional

[rickoshea52]

If this goes for a year then I might be tempted, I've never built one before. But can you define "battleship"?

[BBdave]

I think this would be good I've always wanted to build a ship maybe an rc conversion to. It would have to be the later part of the year for me though.

But can you define "battleship

 battleship: A large armored warship with a main battery consisting of large caliber guns. 
Think along the lines of Dreadnought and there after; Bismarc, Tirpitz, Hood, Missouri.... That kind of thing. Not assault ships, Aircraft carriers etc.

i might be interested 

[Ian M]

So one yes and five maybe....

[Gern]

If it runs for long enough I'd be tempted.

I've only got this Ian if it counts, count me in.

[Guest]

Its time I built a ship.... so ..........


Count me in! 


I'm fine with either six months or a year.

[Ian M]

I've only got this Ian if it counts, count me in.

It not really a battleship is it...

[papa 695]

It not really a battleship is it...

Well it's a ship and it could go into battle.  9_9

I might be tempted on this one...as I'm ex senior service!


It's been many many years since I built a big bad war canoe!
