    Papa695s let’s build a bi-plane.

    Seams as some have now started threads for next year’s GB’s I suggest a Bi-plane GB starting 1st January 2024 until end of April 24. Any Bi-plane any scale.
    Any takers?

        Yes Ian, count me in for this one :thumb2:

        I’ve never built a biplane before and it is something I’ve been thinking of trying so this would be the ideal opportunity :smiling4:

          I could go for that, I have a few unwilling victims that suit the subject.

                    ooops... You've reminded me that I do have a biplane in the stash, a 1-32 Sopwith Camel, but it's half started so I shall have to re-enter myself into the Shelf of Doom GB

                        There's more chance of me finding a bi-plane than a spaceship I could fancy building...let me have a look...

                            Count me in please. I have unfinished business with bi-planes.

                            When I first joined this forum nearly 2 years ago after starting modelling I attempted to build a 1/72 scale b-plane as my first model. That was a big mistake which ended up in the bin.

                            I'm feeling more confident now to at least complete one and skip the binning stage.
