SiGs for 2017 - Cast your vote - POLL...

Post by Lee »

As with last year, this year you guys will decide what our four main ISM SiGs will be next year. You can make four votes and can change your votes anytime up until the poll ends - Make sure you use all four votes. It's entirely up to you what you choose. If you want to leave some comments and your reasoning then you're quite welcome to....

The poll will run for 14 days until midnight GMT on 1st December 2015.



The End is Nigh - Any post apocalyptic scene or diorama and/or vehicle or figure.

FAA all the Way - Any Fleet Air Arms aircraft from any era past or present. References here - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fleet_Air_Arm

Head & Shoulders - Any bust or figure from the torso up covering any genre. No legs allowed!

Gone in 60 Seconds - Any of the vehicles on the list from the film. Can have any vehicle from either the 1974 or 2000 versions of the film. References here -https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gone_in_6 ... 1974_film) and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gone_in_6 ... 2000_film)

I'll Take Mine Straight Up! - Any fixed wing VTOL aircraft from any country or era. References here - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_VTOL_aircraft

The Holy Land - Anything Israeli (IAI or IDF)

Space! The Final Frontier - Anything that gets into space, be it rockets, aircraft, satellites and vehicles used in space - Non fictional only.

Simply Scenic - Any diorama from any genre. One rule - No vehicles/aircraft/ships of any kind!


Really looking forward to the results :th:

The end is nigh! I think anything from Maschinen Krieger's universe fits, right?
'In the year 2807, World War IV broke out on the Earth. Up to 80% of the Earth’s population was killed in the holocaust. The destruction was so great that human life could no longer survive on the decimated planet. The few survivors left to settle on other colony planets and created a new civilization in space. The Earth remained in a near primordial state' (Taken from maschinenkrueger.com)

Simply scenic sounds really interesting too

That is true but you need a certain number of people that want to join before it gets a spot in the gb and sig section

Me too. Surprisingly.

Mark's right, we'd have to demonstrate some interest to deserve a spot, but there's always Buddy Builds subs so it's not like we'd be left out in the rain ;)

Still a couple weeks left in the polling, though I doubt H&S would come back from such a deficit. After it's all said and done and we see the schedule hit me up (or leave a post/poll) on the forum to see who'll be interested and I'll be there, availability depending.

I would be interested in a buddy build for sure.

I'd do a space shuttle, but if you're really itching for an excuse to do something with warp nacelles I'm sure I could be bribed...I mean persuaded...to do a Summer Sci-fi 2: the Wrath of Kits. ;)
