Hi Mavrick,

I'm taking advice on this mate as 5 maybe too many for an SB. Perhaps I'll suggest a GB although thats not really what I was intending as that means next year.

What do you guys think?

Regards

Stu

Six or more constitutes a group build so five would be the max. I would like to start this as soon as my SH2Fis completed for the Matchbox build.

Hi Jeff,

I'm ready to go too, when I've finished my MB GB build.

I got my new tool GR.1 last week – it’s a very nice looking kit with some good detail in the cockpit (including a passable seat). I'm looking forward to getting to grips with it. I have some small after-market bits I can add so it should be a fun build.

I’ll start a thread on the SB workbench soon, I’m going to keep it to the 5 of us (assuming Andrew, Fred and Maverick are still interested) and will keep it as 1/72 Airfix Harriers. They do some really nice kits and it’d be kind of nice to showcase them.

Regards

Stuart

I'm still in.
I want to finish off a few other kits first so it'll be maybe second week of September afore I'm ready - is that ok? Same as some of you; finish the Matchbox GB firstly.
I think I'll do the GR7 I have as a GR5. Its the Airfix kit and has the necessay parts on the frames. I have a newer boxing of the GR7/9 for the 7.

So, how does this work? How long have we got? Do we build only one kit, or can we build more?

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

Hi Fred,

Glad to hear it!

I'll start a workbench thread over the weekend in the SB Workbench forum. As for tine limit, there doesn't appear to be any - take a look at the SB guidelines thread in this forum.

Regards

Stuart
