That's more than enough! I could call my model done already, I just want to play with weathering some more... you can expect my entry on time!.
This gun is my guinei pig - I'm trying several new techniques on it.

It seem's that all models that was to be build are done already (except for mine ).
This is a picture of my Leopold form last night - as you can see it is basicly done, but as I said before I'm still playing with several new (new for me) weathering techniques.

Well this week the weather and work did not help me out so I have to take some pictures of my build on its current display above my work desk. It was a fun campaign and a fun build. Now I only hope I can finish my planned rail dio and have it ready for next years show season.

Thank you to all of those who took part in the campaign.

Thanks Jim for thinking up the campaign and running it.

Thanks guys. It was fun and gave me a very good excuse to build that big sucker. Now, I wonder if there will be an Incoming III?

I hope everyone who completed the campaign get their ribbon. If not drop me a message and I will send it over.

Andrzej...I know you will make it!

eMan....Looks good.

I think there were more K5's for this campaign than any other kit. Maybe we should have just had a K5 campaign. Hey, that could be a crazy idea, a Dora only Campaing??

Ok, here's my entry:




I hope you like it!

I will post more pictures on my build log soon (I want to make pics with in daylight - model of this size is difficult subject of false light photography, especially if biggest blue background you have is not big enough for it...).

Jim, thank you VERY much for this campaign - not many models in it but for sure we are guys with biggest barrels of whole Armorama here! (sorry for that - you knew I would not resist... ). Thanks again - I can proudly wear your ribbon now!

As much as I hate to say it, you're right about more K5's. But I'm glad here were almost as many Morser Karls.

Too bad no one made a coastal defence gun, that would have looked really cool!

Good job on the campaign everyone and thanks for coming up with the idea Jim,

Rich

I'm glad my guns are bigger than most others
