Well folk seem to be aware of the Bad Idea GB poll resuls so the 1-weeker's poll is now open.

There's an odd number of votes overall.............  :-\

Does that mean only half of a Forum member voted?
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

It's the weekend!

Just under 48 hours to go before this particular poll closes, so some time remaining for you to vote for your favourite(s).

Pollster numbers are a little lower than I expected at this point, but hopefully there will be a rush to mark those all-important ballot papers before the weekend is over.

Vote wisely 🗳�

The poll has just closed and we have a winner.

Well done Weaver for topping the poll with your BAC Mustard.  :thumbsup:

My own Folland 'Foghorn' and nönöbär's Heinkel He280 took silver and Bronze and will join the Mustard in the Whiffy nominations (as per GB rule 10).

Many thanks (and well done) to all who participated and/or supported this year's 1-weeker.  While the number of finished entries was consistent with the last 4 or 5 years the number of pollsters was slightly down.  Electoral dysfunction with the 1-Week GB poll being hard on the heels of the Bad Ideas GB?

Anyway, here's to the next GB.

Good job everyone who entered.   :thumbsup:

Extra bonus good job to the top 3 and an extra super bonus good job with sprinkles and whipped cream to H.

Having seen the mustard coloured Mustard y'day with my own eyes, three things about it stand out.

1) It's TINY!

2) It's a SUPERBLY built model

3) It's very VERY YELLOW!

Nice one H.  :thumbsup:

Wow, thanks everyone!  ;D  ;D  ;D  :thumbsup:

Congratulations to Kitbasher and nönöbär and well done to everybody who took part.

I really didn't expect to win this one, given that the model is, unusually for me, straight out of the box.

Thanks to Kitbasher for moderating, and thanks also to Freightdog Colin for making my first all-resin model a surprisingly painless experience. :thumbsup:
