Way to go man! If this is what glue(styrene?) sniffing can do to a modeller, I'm curious to find out what CA sniffing can do to me>

Hello Rick, it is nice to see someone still having fun with this hobby. Some times I think we take it too seriously. I once had some upper hull and turret parts leftover from a couple of Amtrac conversions I had done. I played around with them and then used them to build a fictional Russian gunboat. When I took it to the club show it gave the judges fits. They didn't know whether to leave it in the ships category, or put it in Sci-Fi or Miscellaneous. Now you have got me thinking of doing Tony The Tiger and taking it to an AMPS show. Al

Ok Rick, what kind of campaign can you come up with now? I think it would be very interesting
Talk to Voncuda, maybe you two could come up with a PINK PANTHER / ZOMBIE EMPIRE.

How about a campaign called "Phabulous Phunnies" (so not to offend the duplex drive drive Sherman guys)

campaign would be humorous models such as pink,or black panthers, Super-guppys done as killer whales (have done one), anything to enhance the name and or look of the model to bring a smile , because too many bean (rivet) counters make for a poor soup!

ribbon for campaign could be a multi-colored jester head with a goofy tongue hanging out!
LOL

I was thinking that if this( Pink Panther) were entered into the "What If" campaign, it could be from the "Ernst Rohm" memorial detachment of San Francisco CA

For you brits who may not understand, it would be a "poof" unit, motto would be: "never leave your buddies behind".....

I love the Pink Panther idea. Too bad one guy out of the whole bunch has no sense of humor. Let's see more.
