2020 will mark 75 years since the end of hostilities. I suggest a group build to be completed by 8 May 2020 and 14 Aug respectively but as usual our group builds never end. Theme is any subject Allied or Axis, having been flown, driven or sailed including prototypes on the drawing board 1939 to 1945. I will personally attempt to enlarge my ID Plus collection and maybe add some ships and a tank. My WWI projects turned out well so perhaps I can do the same for WWII. Regardless, all are welcomed to join in.

Sounds like a plan.

Lots to choose from and 12 months to do it.
I will try a ship this time. A tank is on the cards.
I'll finish the CAC-15 too!
Already started on a 1/72 contribution.

Cheers

N3PB has progressed . Wing and tailplane glued to fuselage. Floats have been clened up and attachment fairings done.

Pic to follow.

Decided on a 1/72 Blenheim , 1/60 Buffalo Mk1 and a 1/60 Nakajima Ki-27

We'll see how they progress.
