Sounds like a "Montey Hall" campaign, but since I've gone down to a 4 day work week, I may actually finish this one!

John, as Andrzej pointed out it might be a good idea to drop Mark Milland a PM. Maybe he just needs to click a few times with the mouse and we are up and running...

Hope this one gets started

When in the Spring would the campaign end? I get back from Iraq around Thanksgiving-ish, and I am in if it can go until the end of April.

I did.
Here's the answer

"It looks like it will be a good one. Let me get with Mike and work out the details and make sure the dates are good. I apologize for not being more on top of it, but work has had my mind somewhere else lately. "

@paxtonm :1st May maybe... if not we'll get an extension....

Sounds good - this seems to get of the ground eventually.

Thanks for the effort, John

When are we starting? I have the itch to build a Leopard

Aah, by the way, any one know any aftermarket firm that produces good Leo 1 tracks? Injection preferred, resin is also OK.

I have 5 Tiger Is in the closet. They purr everytime I open the door. Not trying to be to obvious, but I will most likely be pouring glue and paint on one of those.

Hi,

I know that it doesn't count for a campaign because it's not started yet, but I've made my personal record today: I've painted 1/72 KingTiger Porshe turret in 3 hours drinking beer and talking with cousin in the same time . My cousin just came to me and asked me to paint his son's model... so now the model is drying... I have to give it back tomorrow morning, I hope I'll be able to make some pics .... Pheeew.... I'm tired... it was too fast for me (I've screwed it in few places but the result is not so bad after all.. )

Andrzej
