Finished!!

Here is my Horch..



Finished with Tamiya XF-63, XF-57, Mig Pigments and some Mig Oily Stain that you can't really see in that photo.

I have more pictures but my internet has been slowed for some unknown reason. I will upload more later

Hay gang thought I would throw my hat in the ring for this campaign aswell as all the others I am doing! I am going to do a humvee troop carrier in 1/72 and finished in a nice simple desert camo job.

I seem to have had a very productive afternoon today, I have got the build for this one finished and ready for paint.

I have started the Dragon 1/35 Sd.Kfz.7, 8t Half-Track, Initial Production. The chassis is complete. I intend to paint it in DAK colors and expose the engine compartment using the Griffon Model PE Update Set.

Hi Guys,
As I was putting the finishing touches on my Tiger @ the Tiger campaign I started cutting and gluing my 6X6. Most of the build is finished and here is what it was looking like before I shot it with some primer. Need to make some straps holding on the 2nd jerry can on either side



This will be as typical with me OOB. But it has an engine so I may make it with the hood up Since this is a non-fighting campaign am I allowed to mound the M-1 Grand Rifles on either side of the cab

Sal, you can mount the M1 Garands since they are infantry weapons. By the rules, you can not mount an MG on the truck for example, but infantry weapons belong to the infantry rather than the vehicle itself... so they are okay.

Thanks for clearing that up for me Emre Sprayed the bottom this morning with primer, no new photos yet, but with the work week starting in a few hrs, progress will slow back down Unless I can get another 17:30 hr shift in

Hay gang paint is on.

@ Warren - have I told you you're too fast? Nice one! I do hope you are planing to build some more for this campaign

@ Sal - very nice progress! And as Emre said (thanks Emre) weapons are allowed as long as they're not mounted.

@ Scott - you are moving fast as well... How do you guys find time for all this building/painting/posting?

A.

Sorry Andrjez, but I just can't help it!! Once I tidy up the 30 or so other campaigns I am in that have started I promise I will retunr and build some more.

Cheers
Warren

Got some of the small details painted today.

Hi Guys,
Im making some steady progress on my 6x6, here it is with the main OD sprayed on

as well as the tires and some engine work

At this pace I should have this finished soon

Another quick update still need to do some work on the weathering, figure and the cargo arrived yesterday

the mud is a mix of plaster of paris plastic scrapings and acrylic paints

Steady progress

Sal, I think you got some dirt on your truck...
I'm still here, waiting for the kit to arrive. I always order through my local hobby shop, to give them my business and save myself the shipping costs, but this time it's backfiring, since they aren't finding the Academy M151A1 with howitzer kit that I can see at Scalehobbyist.com that could have been here in only a few days. Again, I want to modify that kit into an M718 ambulance.
Eight months to go in this campaign, so no worries yet. Besides, I've got 4 other campaigns ending earlier.
Cheers all,
-Sean.

Sooner on later some kid is going to write "DIRTY" with his finger on your vehicle .

or wash me

Welp finally decided I go way out of my comfort zone of modern stuff and do Tamiya's German 3T cargo truck. Looks like a fun build, OOB, now just got to wait till it gets here!

Hello Andrzej

I've got a question... I've been looking at the campaign and thinking I would like to jump in,

I got a little kit that is non-fighting, it contains a small ford tractor used to tow several types of trailers. and a Lift Truck.. which carry the ordnance out to the aircraft.

Would this fit into this campaign? and would having any ordnance on the trailers violate the rules of the campaign?

Iaters..

Delbert

Hi Delbert,

As the second-in-command of the campaign, the answer to your question is no, your truck does not violate the rules. The main thing is that the vehicle should not have weapons that allow it to fight on its own. Since your ordnance truck can not go berserk and start throwing bombs around, it is perfectly eligible for the campaign! You can have as many ordnance as you want.

Build that kit and join us!

I'm building 4 Famos in 1/72 right now... this is the revell one.

More progress on the Dragon 1/35 Sd Kfz 7. The engineering and fit are fantastic.

Tom

I'm building this ammo carrier in 1/72 for the campaign additionally.

Just enlisted. I will be building this, OOB:



mainly because if it weren't for this campaign, I'd probably never build it. Should be getting started on it relatively soon, and complete well before the end date as the kit is, by today's standards, very simple.

Hi Guys,
Touched up the weathering and added some more cargo and I think I'm finished except for a final dull coat.



Please let me know what you think as your comments help me improve. Thanks all

I'm still waiting at the starting line here. I had intended to use Academy's M151A1 with the 105mm kit for this build, but it was just discontinued and the local hobby shop can't find it. I'm changing gears to get the simpler (cheesier?) old Tamiya one instead. If I'm kitbashing the body, I have less to lose with the cheaper kit, and hopefully I can fix it up some in the process.
You guys are making some good work, setting the bar high for a late-comer. I should get going soon though. Still plenty of time before September.
thanks
Sean.
