Here are the Rules
1. A photo of the final build MUST appear in the campaign gallery to qualify for a ribbon.

2. Kits must not be started before the campaign

3. Builds from other campaigns are not acceptable

Any scale. Must be WW2 era. Scratch-builds are allowed. Prototypes are acceptable. In progress shots not required, but requested.

Actually there has been talk about making at least one in-progress photo in the campaign thread mandatory. What does everyone think about this?

The only problem I have with this is that I build for fun. If I'm enjoying it too much, I tend to loose focus of what must be done and fail to take pictures. Maybe one photo of the kit, before it is completed.

Which comes down to the same thing, really.

Garykato, I think I listed the end date as Feb. 1, this should be Apr. 1. Can this be corrected?

As have I. If you're keeping a list, you can put me down for a Churchill Mk.V (it will be Ballyrashane from the NIH after all).

Allright guys. I've decided to step my build up a little. I'm going with the M32 ARV and adding a T1E1 mine roller from Brach Models to it.

Okie Dokie...since Mason pointed this (and another) campaign out, I said "let's go for it". I'm looking at a Matilda I think.
