Okay folks, it's time to vote for your favorite models in the Soviet GB.

You have the customary THREE votes each, the poll will run for 10 days, and you may change your vote if you want.

Details of all the builds, and links to the individual build threads, can be found on the Finished Builds thread here:
http://www.whatifmodellers.com/index.php/topic,43329.0.html

It's been a splendid effort and I'd like to congratulate ALL the entrants for providing such a varied and interesting field. It will no doubt be fiendishly difficult for people to pick three winners.

Some stats:

We had 37 entries in total, comprising 29 aircraft, 4 ground vehicles and 4 ships.

Dizzyfugu, to nobody's surprise, had the greatest number of entries with 6 in total. However comrade harps and zenrat each put 4 in, and chrisonord and TheChronicOne managed three apiece.

Okay, get voting! :thumbsup:

That was an incredibly hard choice. Good luck to all, and thanks for the most fun GB I've been in for many years!

Y'all gon' put me in an early grave puttin' me through all this stress trying to pick builds.   ;D ;D ;D ;D

Thorvic

That was hard, there was a lot of good builds that each had their merits so choosing three was extremely difficult, all the best to those that I didn't vote for, I had to make my final selection based on the idea, the work involved or the final build based on my personal preferences.

It's hard note to vote 1, 2 and 3 for Dizzyfugu (or Zenrat)!
Whatever.

Dizzyfugu

Feel free to do so!  :smiley:

Tactically the submission of many kits does not make much sense...  :rolleyes: But choosing only one for a good theme is just as hard to make as the final voting among the highly creative field of entries!

Or for Comrade Harps.

There is better work there than mine.  I didn't vote for me, I never do.

Whatever.

Nope, not even close!

I've voted & I won't say who I've voted for (there were 3 talented modellers included), however, you guys were right up there in the mix.

So, enough with this self-deprecating pap, OK!? :unsure:
