Hmm..let's see if this works.
Here is a picture of the Stug III I've been working on. It will ultimately be part of a diorama entitled "Illusion of Victory"

Hi Peter
Backslash ("/") should be before "img". And remove "/thumbs" from the adress.
BTW: Nice work!

Thanks for the assist, Andrej !
I'm a relative newbie, so it will undoubtably take some time to get the hang of everything....

I haven't posted here in awhile but I have been puttering away on my KV. Thanks to the extension I should be able to get it done. I'm into the painting/final detailing parts now.
I also did commander figure from the Tamiya set.

The panther, stug, and kv are really good guys. Your KV tank commander is great too! At the end of the campaign, is there a special place to view all the completed builds easily?

Well, since there is a gallery you can see a lot of them there, but our rules sais that you have to put your picture in gallery or in forum, so there can be some pictures present in only one location.
I'll try to gather all pics here in last post of this campaign right after it's finished.

Well I finally decided to get of my lazy bum and post my entry to this campaign. It's still a WIP and I'm waiting a set of figures from MIG productions (a tanker carrying his comrade on his back) and the 'bail out' set from masterbox to finish it off on its base.
I'll post the rest when my exams finish next week

Fine-looking models here.
It's being some time, too long actually, from my last update. So here's a new one.
A few of days ago I went temporarily insane and cleaned up a whoel bunch of track links, and today I finished the (mostly) new and improved exhaust system.
Check out the story here at the build thread.

Hi,
My Panther is finished. It's my first time making a tank and participating in an Armorama campaign. Thoroughly enjoyed it, but I feel the sudden urge to get back to aircraft ... ah, the comfort zone!
Here's my entry:
Panther Ausf. A, Panzergrenadier Division Großdeutschland, Ostfront, 1944 (Revell 1/35).
Thanks,
Mike.

Here is mine...
It's a recon unit approaching Moscow. I was going to try and finish two figures, but time just didn't go in my favor. Thanks!

Very cool kubel dio. Please post it if you get the figures done.
Stick a fork in it. I'll call my little tiger done.
It's the trumpeter late tiger version in 1/72. With Eduard PE accessories and zimm,
Eureka tow cables a bit of clematis as an unditching log and some foil burnished round
the kit parts for the exhuast guards.
It's my first vehicle and first use of an airbrush. I'll not be using enamel through an
airbrush again. What a stink!
Tiger 312 of PzAbt 505. (pictures clickable for larger size)
And here is the real thing
Forces of valour do a SS unit on horseback for 1/72 that I might get for a dio in the future.
Thanks for the GB I've learned a lot over the past few months following all your builds. Uploaded to the gallery also.

@Mike C:
That Kubelwagen turned out just great! . My only suggestion would be to add some more dirt to the tires and fenders. Cool job on the seats and tarp.
Cheers.

That would be terrific, Andrzej!
With all those great builds, both finished and in progress, I kind off lost track, who built what and scrolling through all these pages isn't really helping either..

Thanks for the feedback guys. I definately hope to do more work to this model in the future. I feel it is incomplete with the lack of figures. Time really was not on my side with this one! It is nearly impossible for me to attack it at this point, however, due to the 22 credit hours I am slogging through at the moment. Thanks again! I will surely post progress when I get a chance later this semester!

The bracket in front of the http should be moved so it's in front of the last part [img]
that should fix it.
PS nice models everyone. I will make it just in time I believe

Here's my completed entry for the campagin. I just finised up the kit today. This is going to be part of a large diorama so for now I am just entering it as is. This was the new DML 5cm PAK 38 w/crew kit that came out last month. The kit went together well. I had a few minor issues that were my own fault but all and all Im fairly happy with it. The PAK was painted useing Model Master enamels, sealed with an acrylic coat then I used Mig filters and washes. The figures were agin painted maily with Model Master enamels and washed useing Migs products. I also used various Mig pigments as well. Thanks.

Rick, you almost had it. You just stuck the location inside one of the brackets. Look at it. the img has to be surronded by the brackets
