Giant Get Well Card For Gregory
« on: April 23, 2014, 09:48:56 AM »
Des has given me the signal to proceed with this, however it all hangs on Cheryl's wishes.

In the meantime, we shall assume the operation is a go. Who is in?

The Plan: a giant laminated foam board backed poster featuring a profile view of Gregory's favorite WWI aeroplane, The mighty SPAD C.XIII.

If you are in, that is, you wish to have your name appear on the poster, please respond to this topic with your handle or name as you prefer, along with the country you are from.

Like this:

ModelManiac (John Doe) USA

If you can pledge a buck or two to help defray the printing and shipping costs, that would be appreciated. Bob Von Buckles has already stepped up with $11.50 (thank you vB).

I will update you with thumbnails of the poster / card as it develops. Currently there is a very rough mockup in the other topic.

This is not a two year project. This is happening now. Gregory needs your support. Please speak up if you wish to be included.

That is all, carry on.

Thanks for taking the initiative on this Bo.

I'll happily chip in my $5. Let  us know how to pay, and if not enough is raised first time round I'll add a bit more

It is very kind of everyone to be offering to send money but please hold off sending any until such time as I hear from Cheryl.
