D-day 80th anniversary tribute build - 5th June -Sept 24.

[Guest]

.... Oh no you wouldn't be Steve!!....
..... It's a hobby,we ALL do it for fun,and for enjoyment,nothing more, nothing less :thumb2:
.... If you don't dive in,and maybe pick up a few tips along the way, then what's the point?!!... I'm CERTAINLY no expert mate,but I do it because I love it,as long as I get satisfaction out of each build then I'm happy :nerd:,
.... and then of course,there's just the pure enjoyment that I get from the banter and information which is so prevelent on this site.
So c' mon buddy,dust off a kit and JUMP IN!!:tongue-out2:

Well.. I've been looking at my stash and I'm not sure if I have a model that will fit. Looking at my list I do have a Stuka, Mustang and a Spitfire (but I'm not doing the Spit as it's the 1/24th one.)

I'm not sure what variants the Stuka and Mustang are, will check in the morning.

embarrassment

Steve have you seen what I’ve built??? We’re not that kinda of forum we lift each other up. No need to be embarrassed

[Lee Drennen]

Mustang

You can do the Mustang that would be great. The build is for the allies only so the Stuka would be out. I’m sure you would do a great job on it. It’s all in fun once you participate in your first Group Build you will be wanting to join more.

[Geoffers]

I know how you feel as I felt exactly the same when I first returned to the hobby.

However I eventually plucked up the courage to join a couple of group builds on another forum and found that the help and encouragement from the other participants really helped with my confidence.

No pressure Steve if you don’t feel like you are ready to take part that’s fine but you have luckily stumbled on to one of, if not the friendliest forum going so you might as well join in and take advantage of all the help that will be offered.

Geoff.

[Lee Drennen]

friendliest forum going

Yes I will second that.

[Ian M]

Come on chaps. in a subject that is this historically important and so wide you can build almost anything. Surely there must be a couple more lurking in the corners.

[Andy T]

Count me in please.

I've no idea what I'll build but there's plenty of subjects to choose from :smiling5:

Come on Steve, it's about the experience, not the end result,and you learn more by doing than by watching....

I'm going to use this as an excuse to buy a Mossie. I believe they were used in D-Day and I do have a great love for the lovely old bird!

I do have one question thoughl, it says 'Usual group build rules apply'. I don't know what they are, can you either list them or give me a link to them? I wouldn't want to break a rule by accident. Thanks!

Model must be new and unstarted, unless otherwise stated in the original suggestion.
You may start the thread build thread as soon as the section is opened, but no building until the start date.
Befor the build starts you need to post photos of the box art and the sprues and any other goodies you plan to use for the build.

Loads of photos and a bit of text to tell what you are doing.
Ask as many questions as needed.

Have a look at some of the previous Group Builds - GB's - and you'll get the idea.

[Guest]

Thank you!

[Geoffers]

Me

Spanner 570
Andy T
Steve T

Hopefully we will get a few more entries before the start date.

Could you do the necessaries when you get time please Ian.

Cheers,

Geoff.
