Jan,
At one point each campaign had a dedicated folder, but I haven't found ours and I spent loads of time looking. I posted mine to my photobucket account and linked it to here. You can use the workbench folder by using the photos link and then attach the photo here.

Andy,
I and a few others put their put their pictures in
Currently Active Campaigns-Stryker-Chariots of Fire. It appears that this is the dedicated campaign gallery.
Just in case, here's another image of my finished build.
Hope that's it!

Jan,
That's where I wanted to put my images lastnight, but when I went to upload the image all it would give me for choices was the Currently Active Campaign, but no Chariots of Fire.

There have been some gallery issues lately. I just checked and the gallery is there with a bunch of pics in it.
Let me know if this one is officially done, or if more time is needed to get entries in.

Trumpeter Stryker with AFV's Remote Weapon Station. Took forever for me to finally post some better finished pics. Sorry it took so long.
A little dark. Trumpeter does make a nice simple kit. I hear that AFV's kit has more items to detail with.
you can just barely make out the wire wrapped antenna mounts as well as the spring loaded hatches. The kit was just to blah.

Mine won't be finished in time either, not much time for modelling during the last month or so.
I'll keep posting updated pictures in my NZLAV thread.
Great builds guys, some really good stuff being shown.

Hello All,
I've just handed out the Ribbon for successfully finishing this campaign. I would like to say that it was inspiring to see the quality of the work done by all. It drove me to try new things. One thing that I have learned is that if you do a blog of your build, you will be contacted by many modelers offering you great advice and research material. I would personally like to thank everyone that took part in the campaign. I would like to give specail thanks to Jim Carswell and the information he provided me.

Thanks for the ribbon Andy. Great job everybody. That was so much fun considering this was only my third completed armor. Looking forward for the future campaigns.

Thanks for putting this campaign together Andy. If I ever have questions about Marine armor, you're my guy. Great LAV too.
Awesome builds guys. I got some great ideas for my next Stryker. Thank you all.

Nothing like a deadline to get you behind the model table. It's an incentive to get the work done.
