Just signed in, Damian. I have some Jugs in my stash and if I stare them down long enough one will loose and fall out of the pile ....
So far I've just signed for 2 campaigns this year and the first is almost done If I have time from Feb to Oct I'm sure I'll get something done.

Happy modelling

Well check that out! I buy a p-47 kit and a campaign pops up, thats service!


Mike, I have spies everywhere following you guys around and checking out what you buy.

Thanks for joining in mate, I'm looking forward to seeing how the Hase kit builds up for you.

Cheers, D


Your spies aren't too good as they missed the four Trumpeter P-47s I have in one of my cupboards. Sack em all!!

There is one problem with your title at well Herr Fuhrer// I also have a A-10A THUNDERBOLT in the stash.. Does that count as well?

Ummmmmm . . . . . . . . . . . . . no.

Thanks for joining in Warren, Torsten, Vance and Sascha.
We are up to 19 enlisted now with a couple of weeks to go, this is shaping up to be a really good Group Build.

Bump time, also time to drag a P-47 out of the stash and get ready for the start date

Discussion thread on the SIG Forums HERE .
Group Build enlistment page HERE .

Come on folks, new builds and hangar queens welcome. Everybody needs to have a Jug on the display shelf, and one on the bench, a couple partially completed, and a few in the stash, and a few more in the wish-list, and . . . . . never mind, shutting up now !

I'll sure have a second kit on my bench, Damian. Recently I got the P-47 from this new "Easy Assembly Kits" from Hobbyboss. I might do that as a side order, just to give it a try ....

That makes for an interesting image

It's quite the opposite to what most people tell me, that I am speaking out of my 4$$ !

Oops, can I say that here ??

Anyway, never a dull moment on the SIG mate

It is entirely possible that I will actually have my man cave finished by the start date or, if not finished, I will at least be able to use the spray booth

Holy Smackeral! I still have 3hrs left in 30/01/13. There's still time to finish the other campaigns before deciding if I want to do a 'jug'.

Ben, seriously, what do you mean by "deciding" ?? What do you mean by "if" ??

There is no maybe, there is no possibly, of COURSE you want to build a Jug, now stop mucking around and ENLIST !

Ok, Aussie! I just traded my Hellcat (not yet started) in preference of the Thunderbolt campaign.

I only have 6 too choose from though; all 48 scale. Think I'll go with an 'N' model. I'll post it in the proper thread over the weekend.

Bump time, we are 4 weeks in now and a few progress reports coming through. Feel free to join in and comment, or enlist and build a P-47. Any scale, 7 more months to run, hangar queens accepted, no reason not to !
