Do I still qualify for the campaign ribbon if my model was submitted after the original deadline but during the extension period?

I think the whole point of the extension period is so you can still get the ribbon awarded.

We usually have extensions for those who joined the campaign when it was active and need some extra time to get it done.

We actually have 2 types of extensions:
1. The "Unofficial" type is the most common. We don't change the end date stated on the campaign page to prevent new people from enlisting. These extensions are usually a few days or maybe a week.

2. "Official" extensions are where the end date on the campaign page is changed. This allows new people to enlist. These extensions are several weeks or more.

If you were already enlisted in the campaign, then you should qualify for a ribbon if you finished during the extension.

I may be in need of a extension for my own campaign. I have heard bad things about the Italian postal service. I will be ordering my base for the T1E1 mine roller from Brach Models. I'm not sure how long it will take to arrive. Would I qualify for an extension?

Sounds like I'm good then as I enlisted at the start of the campaign.

I usually grant extensions when requested by the campaign leader. My philosophy is that It's the leader's campaign, I just help him do the things that need staff permission.

"Targets Shoot Back" doesn't "unofficially" end until the end of the month. You already uploaded images of your build into the campaign gallery so you will definitely be getting your ribbon.

By the way, you do really nice work!

Gary,

Wow! Thank you for the complement! I still have so much to learn and techniques to master. I'm always awed by so many builds done here.
BTW. I forgot to install the front fender markers before taking the pictures. I corrected that oversight. If I get a chance I'll upload some new shots.
