god richard. pull your finger out lol.

...i think only 3 or 4 of us acutally finished it!

John. for ideas maybe take a look through the ARCs group builds. current and previous. there are lots and could be a good source for ideas on subjects...etc

ARC Air Discussion Forums -> Group Builds

Yours should clearly be the best then after getting all those valuable hints and tips from watching the other builds!

A theme is a good idea,ie Search & Rescue,Trainers,Aerobatic Teams,Paramedic,Awesome giants etc steer clear please of the hacked to death Spitfire's ! there is so much scope out there and by suggesting a theme it gives more individual scope,you could even do one along the lines of 'Colour it Red' 'Colour it sand' 'Colour it blue' once more lots of scope to do individual subjects that will add more interest for everyone participating in the project.

Does that work the same ay as a community build where U build a model and show it if so I'm having trouble building in a community build. If not how do U get on with overseas builders wanting to take part.

So whatever happened to the would-be group build? As RJ said, other sites do them a lot (ARC, Britmodeller, etc) - they are quite good fun, but you need a window of about 6-8 months so that everyone has a reasonable chance of completing something. The "search and rescue" idea of Barry's sounds quite good, as you could include wheeled vehicles, boats and aircraft (although I presently have nothing in my stash that would be suitable).

We had a "Black" group build at my local club a few weeks ago, so I entered with a Beaufighter Nightfighter and simultaneously entered Britmodeller's "90 Years of the RAF" GB. (I just put the pics in my Gallery if you want a quick look). The Gladiator you'll also see there was from a previous group build on ARC entitled "North Africa and Mediterranean".
