Her are the results of the poll. All those that posted a suggestion and cast their vote. Many thanks and well done.

All the suggestions that got under ten votes have been cut.

We now want:

4 GB subjects

4 TB subjects

5 SIG Subjects.

To save you from another poll, I suggest that I just sort it out. However if there is one that you feel would be better as a long SIG (remember a minimum of 6 months) than as a short (3 months) GB.

I will get on with it from here and give any preferences you may have my consideration... :smiling3:

Under a tenner. Any kit purchased for under £10 (or equivalent there of!) 19

The Desert. Any desert, any war. 18

Post war wrecked armour or aircraft. Found rotting in a field… 14

4 engine bombers. Nuff said? 14

Brail scale armour 1/72 Scale ? Can you see it? 13

from a photo. Post a photo reproduce it as accurately as possible. colour or mono 13

The devil is in the detail. Put as much extra detail on a basic kit as you can. However you can. 12

lands on an aircraft carrier 12

A figure build As in the singular A figure. 12

The battle for Berlin 11

Soviet Aircraft. Any type and era. Political hot pot that one :smiling: 11

Anything with snow. 11

Locomotive If it is on rails its fine but lets try to avoid the obvious German railguns.. 11

Prototypes that didn't quite make it. Mass produced need not apply. 10

A classic from the seventies. Time to dig those cupboard queens up and build them! 10

Artillery, with or with out tow. 10

The only suggestion i can offer Ian is that those most likely to be a long involved build are given SIG status.- ie. from a photo , devil is in the detail , the desert , and battle for berlin . I feel these could all take a lot longer than most of the other builds , its up to you what category you put the others in , just my thoughts on it , cheers ton y

SIG suggestions...

Berlin - you MUST build a diorama...not a simple tank O_o

Wrecked - if you want to do a real paint effect, you need time...

Photo - copy a photo...a challenge :eek:

Agree with the Battle of Berlin, but the others are more a theme, although the devil i

I think it was set to any published photograph. From a book, historical document, or the like. So yes modern as well as old, and it need not be a war subject.

(this is purely to prevent you from taking a photograph of the finished model and saying that was the photo you were working from... ;) )

Sorry Peter, it was way to small to read, Working on a new one. I dont have any photoshop programs so getting a large clear copy is a bit of a challenge at the moment..
