I'm in with a Revell 1/72 Hurricane IIc.

As there are still 2 weeks to run on this I may as well raid the stash again. I have managed to collect all of the Airfix "WWII Aircraft of the Aces" collection, and within the hoard are four viable for this GB:



I will tackle the Thunderbolt first, and see how time goes for the rest.

Wild Weather does seem to mean lightning fast builds...

Speaking of which... sign me up Motley! (must have GB madness! - at least that what SWMBO says...)

This is the victim kit:

Guys,
you wouldn't think about stretching the timetable till Monday 18th , would you? Marek is well behind, just put decals yesterday and there is much more to be done ;) with my cyclone.

[Molly-new]

Can I just say a big "Thank You" to Tom for suggesting this GB, and modding it so successfully with all the other GB's going on at the same time. It allowed me to get 3 out of the stash built, and gave me the KUTA that I needed to get on with building my WWII Aircraft of the Aces series.

Now this is interesting. The box art has a picture of the featured aircraft flaming out and the pilot ejecting. I don't think I've ever seen that before. Usually its a picture of the featured aircraft causing the pilot of ANOTHER aircraft to punch out.

I could do with a couple of extra days as well, I am in a position to finish it and would like to given some more time.

Your right Dirk, the box art for this one is right 'out there'. Not really an great advertisement for E.E. though!

Three cheers for Tom and John for organising this GB!

Even though I started halfway through and this build had its moments, I've thoroughly enjoyed it and applaud the other entrants for their efforts and their great models!

This IS a great place to be!

It could tie in with this famous photo. check out this link

Omg! That lightning sure has an electric nod to the ground.
Show that photo to people for 5-7 seconds, then ask them what the license plate on the tractor read, I bet most couldn't say.

Good GB, time to wrap things up for the archive ....

Thanks,
John
