I'll add a 1/48th beastie of some description to the proceedings.

Just wondering if we have any more takers on this? Currently I'm not sure that it's viable and it would be a shame not to have a GB for such an iconic British kite on its centenary.

KB - great :)
Putting you in.
That puts us at 8, assuming the original takers who haven't reconfirmed yet are still in (I'm going to take that as read - not expecting people to have to reconfirm)
I think it would still be good to get a couple more just to have a margin of safety.

jRatz, no probs. Totally understand. See how you go.

So, 100% chance my build will be a 1/72 Roden kit :mrgreen: :mrgreen: . Quite likely it will be Billy Barker's Camel, to go with his Snipe on the shelf. Failing that, the Comic anti-Zeppelin jobbie. Both if I think it's realistic.
