Wow, great work as usual Brent. you never cease to amaze me with your productivity and skill on such small scale models.

Hi All,

I have been working on a Half track on and off for a while, so I think I now have time to complete it. Its a Tamiya SdKfz. 251/1 Ausf. D. It will be pretty much OOB with perhaps a few minor adds. Eventually I want to make a dio with it, but thats most likey a ways away.

Anyway I will post some in progress photos and should be done soon! Thanks for great models and great ideas all!

Hey Half-Trackers!

Here is my Dragon M2A1. This was such a sweet kit to build. I'm surprised there weren't more in the campaign.

It's beeen great to see all the cool builds, especially the dioramas. Very inspiring. Thanks Emre for putting this great campaign together.

Cheers,
Duncan

Good work Duncan! Please don't forget to upload your photo in the campaign gallery as well. I was planning to acquire one of those DML M2 Halftracks, but with the USD appreciating fast against our Turkish Lira, it seems to be a distant hope...

Well, I'm finished.....and not proud of it......that'll teach me to bite off more than I can chew

Thank you very much for the campaign, Emre, even though my participation was extremely limited, I did follow everyone's builds and enjoyed/learned a lot.

Last wip shots (from yesterday) as I added decals today and finished the lower hull weathering. Final pics tomorrow and will upload some to the campaign gallery.

cheers

Hi Everyone!

With about 2 weeks to go until the end of our extension, I checked the names in the campaign galleries. We have 105 enlisted modelers for the campaign, but only 20 of you has uploaded photos in the campaign gallery. While 20% is not a bad completion rate, do not forget to upload your photos in the campaign pages.

If you are having technical problems uploading your photos, send them to me or give me your photobucket/imageshack/etc links and I can upload them for you.

Most certainly. I would like to echo Emre's call above mine in that respect, please don't forget to upload a picture to the campaign gallery

Thanks, and once again, well done all for making this such a fine campaign.

Got em all finished today although got most of the pics to process still. Heres a couple pics to start with. Will post some more tomorrow and then get some into the Campaign Gallery.

cheers

They have taken the mortar out of the truck to do some practice with it out on the range...

Here is another 1/2 track I finished about a week ago.. This, again, is a very old Tamiya kit..





I am still learning the use of pigments etc... and I made up the camo scheme.

Lot's of great work here, always enjoy looking at these half-tracks. Looking forward to seeing the gallery when the campaign's complete. I think the 30 day extension worked out well for a lot of folks!

Cheers!

Hello friends!

Great works in this Campaign, congrats!!!!!!. Well, after of many problems with my health again, I finished my work. I hope you like it.







I added some pics in the Gallery of the Campaing too.

Rodolfo

Emre, I decided to join up. I have been doing a review and build of the following kit.


Nice kit with a few minor problems, nothing major.
Joe

Greetings all! Too many great builds in this campaign to mention all by name. I've been rather busy with two other builds and didn't post here until now. I found three mouldy oldies in my stash that I believe I bought in the early nineties (around the time I let my building lapse. Here's the kit.




Two kits are ready for weathering and this one being built is progressing faster. The SWMBO is very happy that I've reduced my stash by three. Actually it's by four as I am also attempting to also complete a 250/9 variant like Dade built earlier. I am totally agonizing over the tracks as they are horrible.

A few quick progress shots on the third 251. Note, not all the holes in the bogie wheels were clean and had to be drilled out by hand with a pin vice.











Hope this brings back some fond memories to some.

Cheers,
Jan

Hello Emri,thanks for running a nice campaign,you were on top of things and acknowledged all of the builds posted.I checked out our award ribbon that you designed and it looks real good,can't wait to see it on my profile,thanks for you efforts.

Anthony C

Uploaded my photos..............and here they are again of the old old Tamiya kit out of the box. A good number of M16's here that people have done. Very nice everyone!!

When is the deadline? I have finished my 251/22, but my camera is broken and I must borrow one to get my photos.

March 31 2009 but you can probably contact Emri for an extension

Thanks mate, I think that will be more than enough!

Great stuff guys. It is nice to see the extension working. Pitifully, it looks like I won't be finishing up my own halftrack due to a lot of reasons.

Glad you joined us Joe! That Sdkfz 11 should be easy to build, a friend of mine is currently building it without much hassle.

Jan, I can't see your pics here? There's a problem I guess.

Glad you liked the campaign Anthony, but the credit for the ribbon goes to Andzrej, I just told him what I would like and he kindly designed and sent the ribbon.

Tom, that M-16 surely needs a car wash . Good work from an old kit.

Tuomas, the deadline is March 31. Since there was already an extension of one month, further extensions does not seem to be feasible at this moment. I would be very glad if you can complete your build within that time.

Thanks for joining and building models guys!

Emre, I tried a different hosting location for the pictures and although I can see them I guess the "Permissions" were set wrong for others. I've edited my post and changed back to my old location and hopefully that should fix things. Could someone please post here and let me know that they can see the pictures in my previous post.

Cheers,
Jan

Yeah, I can see the photos now, thank you! That's a mighty small Sdkfz 251! I have built the Matchbox one in the same scale years ago...

Hi Emre' and everyone else!! I finally finished the Famo and managed to throw together AFV's late SdKfz 11 with some cargo.
Sorry for the dark pics, my bench is taken up with builds right now and it's ugly outside to take pics.





I posted them in the campaign gallery as well.
Thanks for a fun campaign!!

Well done Ed, both are superbly built!
