In a rare venture into modern(ish) jets I plan to build the new 1/32 RAF Phantom that HK Models have announced...  problem is it may not be available until after the GB ends....

Well by my count we have 8 +1 if the kit is released in time...So Rick...Compile a list of the names so far. I will open a forum for the build and the participants list can go in there in Your first post together with the Rules, if any, for the build and the start date.


As we now have the minimum number of participants anyone else that wants to join in can just add there thread in the build section. Does that sound like a plan?


Over to you Rick and well done on landing the first user selected GB.

Excellent. I will take some time over the next week to think about this in detail but I think the rules will be pretty loose - build an F-4 Phantom in any scale, mark or air force. Does anyone have any other ideas on this - on a base, in flight, diorama etc?

I've just picked this one up as part of a joblot from ebay.

I don't normally do 1/72 but this looks nicely detailed and cleanly moulded. I've read that some Bilek kits are total dogs, but this is originally by Italeri and looks good. What's the start date?

It's most likely the 1st January.

Roger that, I have opened a forum for it... Normal forum rules, you can open your thread, post box tops and any extras that you will be using. As for the sprue shots up to you.

I have ordered 1/48 Phantom 2 F4c by Revell/ monogram and with Eduards cockpit detail set
I'm not sure how this will go as I have never compleated a jet before but I'm going to give it a blooming god go.
I've seen a few you tube videos and although I've till June I'll take my time and once it's here I'll post pics of gb etc etc.

Thanks

Robert
