    Animal Antics

    Evening folks,

    After some discussions with my co-host, Mr Steve Jones’s, we would like to propose the following GB.....Animal antics!

    Your entry can be any genre any scale. It can be a vehicle, airplane, boat, train, speedboat whatever....but here’s the catch, there must be an animal link.
    So from the straightforward Tiger tank to something like a Lynx helicopter. Doesn’t need to be military as long as it’s a man made vehicle.
    We are proposing this to be a bit later in the year So the 1st October to March 29th 2020

            Reminders near the time are requested, old age and short memories creeping in - hello nurse Blunderbust is that time already????

                  Hi Si
                  I'm in. I'm afraid it could be a boring Tiger tank but I'll try to think of something a bit different to do with it.

                      I'm in. :smiling3:

                      Would a F-14 Tomcat qualify? I've got the Tamiya F-14D in the stash that I'm itching to build, but could probably hold off until October.

                        Alarm is set Allen. Will call you around September mate. Probably send JR's budgie over to wake you:tears-of-joy:
                        Christopher we would luv to see you take part in the GB. Sadly kick off isnt until October. I hope that isnt an issue for you.
                        Who are you? If you go and see Matron she will tell you who you are.:tears-of-joy::tears-of-joy:. No worries Mike. When JR's budgie is doing all the wake up calls I will make sure it visits your cell as well. Great to have you along
                        Nothing boring about a tigger Jim. Looking forward to seeing your offering
                        Hello Mike. How are you sir?. Hope all is well in sunny France. It would be great to see you in the GB. Thanks for volunteering taking part:smiling::thumb2:

                        Well thanks ever so much guys for the wonderful response and support for this GB. I think we need 10 entrants to make it a goer so where are we now??

                        Si, Steve, Ian, Allen, Christopher, Mike, Jim, Mike, Bob.

                        Well done everyone. Nearly there. Looking forward to all the banter and cake throwing. Should be a cracking GB. Many thanks for all your support

                          As much as I would love to see this being built, as the proposed GB only lasts for SIX MONTHS, I fear you will be pressed for time. Maybe something not quite as big?
