Forgive my ignorance...bone head.
Can anyone explain about Group Builds please.
How are they carried out and what do they entail?
Much obliged.

a group build is a lot of modelers doing a model of a certain theme. For example the current British/commonwealth group build. The models can be any scale but must be of a suitable vehicle used by britain or the Commonwealth. For example a churchill in brit markings or a chev in aussie markings (for this see rivit review board. 'aussie chev')

they can be OOB or an almost total scratchbuild like the Chev.

Time span is normally about 6 months but this can vary. Pics are presented and voted on by the members for placeings.

hope this helps.
