"Swords Into Plowshares" GB (This may have been done before)

[SinUnNombre]

I know this has to have been done, at least by somebody, because I read it here, but anyway. My idea is for a "Swords into Plowshares" GB. The only unbendable rule would be that it must be a military vehicle in civilian trim. Things like:

Crop Dusters: http://www.whatifmodelers.com/forum//index...?showtopic=5469
Land Speed Racers: www.landspeed.com
Air Racers: http://www.aafo.com/gallery/week/11-25-02.jpg
etc.

Sorry if I stole someone else's idea or whatever. I'm not sure of a timeframe just yet, probably sort that out among you guys if there's interest in this. I've never started or ran a GB so any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

No matter how many times I see that, it still makes me laugh insanely. Sure, that'd be fine.

A crop duster GB would be pretty cool........

I'd be in for that.




Only if it was a real-worlder, tho.

C'mon Zac, cropdusting cries out for whiffs. Just imagine a Hastings with spraybars from tip to tip!

Sweet as, I'll take one of my TSR.2s and bung on a hopper.

Hey Zac. What about using that TSR.2 as a land speed racer a la the F-104 above instead? There are plenty of Boulton-Paul Defiants, Gannets, Stukas, Sturmoviks, and Avengers(etc...) for crop-dusters.

How about a B-52 crop duster - we'll bomb those bugs to oblivion!

Okay, fine.



I'll be doing a DHC-3 Otter as a cropduster a la the Beaver anyways, so count me in.

[SinUnNombre]

Okay, fine.

Hey, man. It was just a suggestion.

Sorry mate, I didn't mean to sound so negative. I was planning on doing the Otter as a topdresser anyways, so if we had a GB based around the concept then I'd be in. Please forgive me.


I should've added a *sigh* after the fine. Then again, maybe not.........my profuse apologies Jon.


OT alert - how's the P-40 and Spad coming along?
