From April 1, 2006 through
October 1, 2006, members of ARC participated in the Heavies Group Build.
This GB was open to all planes with more than 2 engines in military service.
We had an astounding 123 entries in the build. Of those, 33 builders
completed 42 entries in what was a very enjoyable and successful group build.
The amount of plastic contained in these 42 huge planes is incredible, and if we
could put all of the completed builds together in one room, it would take up
almost an entire model show's worth of tables! The talent and diversity in
this group build was fantastic, and it gave us all an excuse to pull that big
box from the bottom of the stash. Our sponsors were great as well, with 26
builders recieving prizes, including the last ever made Cutting Edge 1/48 PB4Y-2
Privateer conversion kit! We hope you enjoy looking at the finished
products as much as we enjoyed building them. To see more pictures, go to
our website at www.spruebros.com/archeavies,
and for in-progress pictures and discussion, check out the Heavies GB forum in
the ARC forums. Thank you all. (Above - Jay Allman's 1/48 Revell
