This is a historic GB of World War One - any subject, any kit, any scale, 1914-1918 - it is not specific to the 1st month of the war.

This GB started from this thread in GB Chat.

The GB runs 6 weeks, from July 28th to September 30th 8th; your GBL is Chris, assisted by jRatz, who will fill in any other info.

Ready to build, although I am (usually) a die hard 1/76 armour fan there are more kits available in 1/72 for WW1 AVFs so my builds for this GB will be the start of a stand alone set of 1/72 scale models.

Ready here also. The Monogram (Re-worked Aurora) SE5A in 1/48th scale. I may swap out the airscrew for the four bladed version out of the Aurora kit. Those abominable thick glossy decals may have to go.

[fredk]

I just lined up a couple for this one. More anon.

[TobyC]

I'll be doing one aircraft and one AFV but apart from that I haven't a clue. AFV will be first.

[DazDaMan]

I've got a Revell SE.5a and Albatross D.V lined up for this.

[JohnRatzenberger]

As noted previously I'll be doing the Accurate Armour 1/35 resin Whippet Medium-A.

I have a number of smaller builds, 1/72 aircraft, that I might intersperse.

Welcome aboard guys, to another of my Group Builds!

I hope you all have fun, don't worry about finishing and do that VooDoo that you do so well!

I will be making my long awaited Spad XIII for this, so sit back, join the great powers and the boys will all be home for Christmas!

Kaiser Chris, who has no idea why I have a pigeon on my head!

Getting in practice for when they put up that statue to you when you're famous?

[PaulBradley]

Mustasche is looking a bit weedy there, Chris...and the 80's shoulder pads go UNDER your coat........

I'm in with a Revell 1/48 Camel - well, someone had to, didn't they?

[BlohmWolf]

I'm in with my Red Baron!

[AndrewR]

My stepfather is visiting from England for the first two weeks in August, so I may be a late starter. I haven't decided on the subject yet, but an Eastern Express Bleriot IX, a Pegasus Junkers D-1, or an Airfix Sopwith Pup are all possibilities

[VickersVandal]

I plan to jump in with the real German ace of the Great War
Werner Voss Fokker F.1 from Roden.

[JohnRatzenberger]

So, we have the 'Red Baron' - so who will build Roy Brown's Camel or a machine gun section ? Pick your argument

As to Voss's Triplane, let's get that color discussion going also
