Kitbash / Frankenstein GB - Rules Thread
« on: January 15, 2025, 03:11:29 AM »
This is the Rules Thread for the  Kitbash / Frankenstein GB.
THe GB wil run for Three months, from Midnight (local) of st February 2025 until midnight (local) of 1st May 2025.
The idea of the GB is use major parts from two or more kits to produce a unique model. Examples include putting the turret from one type of AFV onto the hull of another, mating the wings from one type of aircraft with the fuselage of another type, or using various odd bits and pieces to make a spaceship, you get the idea . . .
If you're unsure if your idea qualifies, make a Post in the chat thread.


cheers,
Robin.

Ok, that sets some context. Seemed a bit airy and vague as a GB theme

I’m looking forward to this one! Now I should decide if I want to do the Osprey/Cheyenne cross or the F16XL with a forward fuselage of a two seat F-16. Maybe both in Israeli decals.

Hmmm, so, basically, just about anything goes as the theme is pretty much the definition of kit-bashing… 🤔
Pass the razor saw, there is work to be done!

Does anyone know of a cheap supplier of Frankincense?

I need to up my modelling mojo and I read that this stuff does wonders.
