Sign-up and Chat

Modelling any subject from a "lesser represented" country; which is not a value judgment. Kits may be any scale or subject but you must sign-up and have your country and subject approved. You may build any number of models or countries, but there may be only one modeler per country !!!

Yes a very interesting GB. I learned lots about obscure types and nations.
Thanks Fred, maybe we could do it again next year?

So, anyway... Fred - you have 334 days to think about, how you wanna complicate our modellers life ;)

Thanks for leading the GB Fred, it makes a change to see aircraft in unfamiliar markings. :)

Well chaps, thats it. Thanks for taking part. I hope you enjoyed searching out and modelling a subject from a lesser represented country.

According to my arithmetic the stats look like;
23 names signed up to do 34 countries. 22 modellers started.
Subjects;
25 countries finished. 2 DNS [1 was a double entry], 7 DNF

All the finishers have photos in the gallery. Go have a browse.

25 finishers is a very respectable score considering its an unusual subject.

I for one would be happy to do a re-run next year if we get a chance.

Thank you all for a most enjoyable GB. An imaginative theme that encouraged modeller's creativity and I'm sure this accounted for the high number of sign-ups and completions.

Well Done, All !
