| Unofficial group build: 'After the battle' This is an open thread for anyone who loves modelling aircraft wrecks and conversions... Any era, any type - abandoned aircraft, battlefield wrecks, captured aircraft, test aircraft, special conversions, 'blue cross' aircraft, military aircraft in civillian guise, etc, etc... basically any aircraft in non-standard form. Intended as an on-going fun build for everyone. Enjoy!  |

| I'd love to, at some point, try to model one of those derelict/abandoned crates, that was left behind in forrest openings etc. by the Luftwaffe personell.... I'll be following this thread closely...

| I'll be joining in Evan. There'll be one, the remains of a 'donor kit', that can't be anything else other than a wreck!

| Might be a month or so before I do the one mentioned, but I'll try to stick something in sooner, if possible.

| No worries Terry - will be a little while before my own projects start happening, but thought I'd get the ball rolling for anyone else who's interested. Really looking forward to seeing people's projects! |

| Yep, sure can my friend! Prototypes, Reno racers, target tugs - anything that dosen't fit into the normal group build or other categories! What have you got planned? |

| I'd be up for this one Evan. The bird is already built, a bf109G trop, I overdid the weathering! It looks abandoned. But I have an idea for a diorama. I want to get a 1/48 British vehicle, park it beside the 109 and have a couple of Tommies checking the plane out. Something like this.

| Have seen a few pics of abandoned 262's etc in my JV44 book that look interesting, might try some of those OR something else. Don't want it to get too advanced....

| Great stuff guys (and thanks Wayne)! Exactly the sort of stuff I had in mind... Hoping to see lots of conversion work/ scratchbuilding on this one. As it's intended as an ongoing build, I hope everyone can enter something at some stage! |
