No worries, I have the benefit and misfortune of having no less than six spaces where a model can sit or be built, therefore whatever the date I can still join in, something not in a GB will have to make way for the GB on this one! .Gadfly wrote:I've added you to the list. Understood on the date. We have to follow due process so a date had to be set and poll created etc.

Righto,
A quick bump in a shameless attempt to garner more interest..
We all need a Zero in our lives.. Remember the scope includes all subtypes of the Zero and the Claude and the 'Sam' and the Rufe..
so plenty of scope for a Hinomaru clad IJN fighter to be produced...

Re: A6M 'Zero Fighter ' GB proposal
Add me in for now.
I have a new tool Airfix Zero on my build shelves, if I haven't built it before this starts [most likely] then I'll do it.

Its not just how good your painting is, its how good the touch-ups are too.

Re: A6M 'Zero Fighter ' GB proposal
I'm hoping to have my one and only built for end of November, in time for the Pearl Harbor anniversary. But I could always buy another kit.DazDaMan wrote:I'm feeling a Pearl Harbor Zero is needed for the shelf.
