O.K guys ,I will start the ball rolling ,this will be my effort for this the imodeler.com first (though hopefully not the last) group build,let me start by thanking Martin for being so enthusiastic right from my first suggestion of this some weeks ago ,he has done a lot of work behind the scenes to make this happen,secondly thanks to all the guys so far signed up,I hope to round up a few more yet though !
I imagine there will be a lot of aircraft but don't forget guys your choice of subject can be anything in any scale as long as it related to D Day and the ensuing battle of Normandy so obviously that includes armour and related military vehicles like trucks and jeeps etc, the navy was involved as well of course,did you know for instance that the opening salvo was fired by HMS Belfast and she continued to pound the German defences for some time until the front line moved inland beyond the range of her big guns, so that would be fine for this group build,don't forget the landing crafts used and the DUKW (I think!) ,we have seen some amazing figures as well here on imodeler,let your imaginations take over and have FUN, remember it's not about who's the best modeler it's just about being part of the imodeler community.

I got the kit from my pal Mark Housley who's just joined imodeler today hopefully he'll get the same warm welcome I did.
