[Mr Bowcat]

Si, If you don't mind a reccomendation, the Tamiya Suzuki Ecstar is a superb kit

Yes i have one i have a look over it … i’m 27 short of the full list of 1/12 kits so plenty to choose from

[JR]

Can I just watch please Bob.
Not something that grabs me, but will enjoy watching .

[Mr Bowcat]

Lurkers always welcome John.

[simontie]

Audi R8 but with the Rossi decal not for the model but ill make them fit!,!

Suzuki ecstar gsx-rr i have got one

but was thinking of the R1 Colin Edward’s with the US livery

[Mr Bowcat]

All very nice Si. :thumb2:

[Steve-the-Duck]

Okay, I've gone and done it now, so I will be joining in

[Mr Bowcat]

Welcome aboard Chris.

[Stefee]

If it so pleases sir may I formally request permission to join in the festivities?
I have 2 possible builds, yet to decide which one, but am leaning towards the Subaru.
As this will be my first group build please allow me minor protocol boo boos!

[Andy T]

I'm sure either would turn out great in your hands Stefan.

As for protocol, there's not much to worry about. As long as you don't start before the day, and post box & sprue shorts before you start, that's about it.

Periodic updates keep the crowd happy :smiling3:

[Stefee]

Cheers for that Andy.

[Steve-the-Duck]

From personal experience, as was explained to me of the rules such as they are, you can do multiple builds in a group build, as long as each is in it's own thread.
I've got two builds 'active' and one completed in the biplane GB
In the recent trucks GB I had two Matadors in one build because they were different versions of the 'same' vehicle

[Mr Bowcat]

Permission granted Stefan, welcome aboard. :smiling3:

I plan for the GB to be as informal and relaxed as possible, so don't worry. I'm not even fussed about sprue shots, so unless a mod says they are mandatory for a GB it's your choice if you show them, though a picture of the box art is always nice to see.
