In Another World 2!

Sounds good!!

Saw this gorgeous painting by Ronnie Olsthorn and thought it might inspire someone. Meng makes a 72nd scale kit of the IJA Ki-98 pusher prop fighter (kit DS-002). AMT makes the XB/YB-35 flying wing (kit 8615) and Hasegawa has the Mustangs with ramjets added to the wingtips (kit 09377).

HARRUMPH! Once again, Into the Breach, Dear Friends! We Few. We Happy Few. We Band of Brothers.

I can't decide what to build. I have sworn not to support Chinese made products. A Blue Angels Egg F-35B was a thought. I won't support the communist economy with our own is in near ruin.

Another von Richtofen machine, perhaps?

Regards,

Give your Ki-98 a jet engine & metal tail surfaces? You might have something there!

Is this open to non-TreadHeads?


Ah, I see that it is!

I may have to renew the theme I was working on, several years ago...

 

[Iron Mike]

Bump. Start date is July 1, 2020, who's in?

 

[Sharkmouth]

I am, after all that buildup! I have more to the stories (< plural) if anyone else wants to join in. One is set in Africa, another on the Polish-German border, and the third defending Mecca in Saudi Arabia.

Let me know which interests you and I will post the story for you to add your figure/vehicle/vignette. Any vehicle as in air/land/sea is fine. Can be a real one or what-if. Started kits are fine. Kits missing pieces are perfect to start kit bashing!

Too bad for Warren, this idea is already taken! Two DUKW's bolted together, world's shortest aircraft carrier deck!

 

[sharkman]

That would be cool to model John!



I think they should have hd a 3rd dukw in the middle!

 

[Barney]

I'm in... after we get the house unpacked!

Have I mentioned, I hate moving?

 

[Brokeneagle]

sounds good

It took a skilled Aviator indeed to make THAT micro-carrier landing!

About a week left to the start! Grab your kits out of the stash (or off the Shelf of Doom to rebuild) and let's get some placeholders on there!

Stop worrying about the story as long as you have an idea. You can always go back to add it or it may need to change depending on how the build goes!

If needed, place your orders with your favorite shops.

Hmmm.... not gonna happen for me. The Man Closet has been shut down and the space I moved to has been re-commissioned as part of the "house."

Moving and packing are awful...

 

[sharkman]

Excited to start!!

Is the move going to take longer than the campaign?

Why does this feel aimed at me?

Still contemplating ideas. Just need to get some other builds finished up first.

 

[Iron Mike]

OK guys, we start tomorrow! Let's see some imagination at work.

 

[sharkman]

Looking forward to it!

I have my place holder set and kit chosen.
