Thats not a bad idea Jeremy? What do you think Gary??

I think it's a great idea. I will mark it as a KitMaker University campaign so it shows up in all KitMaker sites.

Sweet! Ready to sign up!

Now you have my full attention

Campaign approved! Here's a link to the campaign page so you can enlist.

Strictly Out of the Box

Darn, Matt beat me to first enlistee status! Lol, cheers mate

Ok I signed up and now that I am enlisted in or working on something like 15 campaigns, I need to think what to build here too. I was thinking of an old Tamyia Marder II that I have which has the marking for the vehicle in this photo

But then I was thinking that it is discontinued for a reason and that maybe I should go with a more modern kit like the Bronco British A34 Comet Tank that looks pretty detailed and comes with some PE in the box
Any suggestions or help out there

Sal: If it makes you feel any better pal, I'm in no less than 28 campaigns, of which 9 are active... wow, i just realized that they need a crazy icon in addition to the thumbs up icon on here

Bronco, Tasca, and Tristar are all pretty safe bets oob

Count me in. Trying to go OOB for financial and time reasons anyway and I want to focus on my painting and weathering skills rather than improving my ability to find tiny bits of brass in the carpet.

Hi all,

All signed up, just need to decide what to build, decisions, decisions.....

Jason

I think I'll sign up to this, not sure what I'll build though. We'll see how Christmas goes first.

28!! good lord Sal i have trouble working on 2 or 3 campaign builds. Well i am all signed up no idea what to build but i have plenty of time to think about it.

Dose someone want to work on a ribbon and banner?

I'm just getting back into the hobby, so this will be a good way to ease back in. Although I haven't a clue what I'm going to build....gotta dig the years old stash out.

We are allowed to paint the model aren't we?

I;m up for it. will run thru stash to figure out what to build.

Hi all, Just enlisted,Im thinking of building an old Revell Sherman Calliope I picked up a while back.

I'll be up for this campaign. I'm usually too disorganized/tightfisted to source AM so most of my builds are OOTB anyway.

My one concern would be my penchant for losing parts. Would it be within the spirit of the campaign to scrounge or scratch replacements for lost/destroyed parts providing they don't offer significant changes to the original. I'm guessing the previous common sense post re 'why cheat?' comes in to play here. I doubt anyone would want to see someones hard work discounted if for example the vacuum cleaner monster consumed a road wheel just before completion.

I've just bought a HobbyBoss 1/72 Morser KARL_Gerat 040/041 Initial Version and accompanying Munitionsschlepper Pz.Kpfw. IV Ausf. F. These two should be more than enough OOTB work for me!

Happy building!

John

This is what I have come up with so far. Obviously needs more work.

Gary, looks good so far very similar to Andrzej's Not-Fighting Vehicles Ribbon with the red circle and line through the Tank. Now just add some colored stripes to the side of it

Picked random colors for the stripes.

Thanks Gary,pretty cool
