Definition: Any model - aircraft, AFV, spacecraft, ship, whatever - you started with all good intentions but, for reasons beyond your control (!), ended up incomplete and gathering dust in a corner somewhere.

Rules: I think the tried and tested arrangement we are using for the...

Keeping very shtum for now (name, rank and serial number only, thank you) but I think I'll throw my Shetland into the ring when the GB ends. Or perhaps my Valiant.

My 262 from GB11 has just migrated to the Shelf of Shame and it won’t have escaped those Group Build regulars that I only finished one of my two GB9 Cold War entries, too. I did at least get the underside of the Hun sprayed with the Hataka USAF Camo Gray prior to the GB winding...

Nice work on that heat affected rear fuselage. Don would like it I'm sure.

Oh the shame.

I do solemnly hereby commit to completing this within the stipulated 12 weeks, your honour. Midnight on Tuesday 9 March is my allocated deadline.

Drastic tactics. This has sat shamefully neglected in this state since 2016. I started it when living in Africa...

That's really kind Mike but I somehow managed to find the parts last night - great success! They were in a plastic toolchest drawer with some miscellaneous Beaufighter and Valiant pieces... well, obviously.

So full steam ahead - thank you for your offer though, it is very good...

For me, Group Builds have been nothing if not déjà vu in terms of completions or, should I say, lack thereof. I won’t even dare list those builds that started life in a GB and ended up on the dreaded SoS. Suffice to say, the 262 is yet another addition to this litany of...

In the meantime, I am living my modelling vicariously though the creations of others on this forum. And boy, have we hit the jackpot with our recent intake of newbies! :D

Another model that didn’t make it to completion by the end of a Group Build … bit of a pattern, I’m afraid. This one stalled early, thanks to the absence of suitable struts for the floats.

Upon Peter Hawkins' suggestion, I did order and receive...

Still committed to eventually finishing this one, despite the news that F-Toys will be releasing the Ar196 in the not-too-distant.

Hello all!

I started this 2-fer kit back in fall of 2013, and for one reason or another, I just keep deciding to do other things with my hobby time, and so they keep getting deeper and deeper on the Shelf of Shame!

They made it as far as this- to the point I was ready to...

Breaking News!

These two Tornadoes will get some much needed work done this weekend. Photos if I get anything significant done. :)

This is to be a twin of the completed one on the left.

I have decals made with different numbers. Much daunting work to do... :twisted:

Looking back through my photos, I find that I finished the first one and started the second just after Christmas, 2012!

I meant the painting showcase. I think Merlin's is the only build thread on here? I had a looksee when I got a bit stuck on mine. Yours is stunning, though. Mine is the triphibian one. Very colourful and a lot of masking to be done some day. Kind of done as much as I can right...

These, I left off after the Paint It Black group build.

The black one needs a polishing and a final coat of gloss black, then the decals, which i have already made, and the landing gear made.
The white one needs to be masked for the dark gray lower areas, and...
