Hi Warren,
Yes, it did transport Tanks!

I am afraid that I may not get anything done for this, life has left little time at the moment and on top of that all the PE for my kit went missing spent the better part of the last week looking for it.

Cheers Rob.



Ok then!

Here is my build for this campaign..



So now I will rush off to the bench and put the box on it until I get back from a little errand ...

Let's see if I can finish it in time..

Cheers
Warren

Is it too late to start asking for an extension?



How long would you like?

Cheers Rob.

Got some more detail pieces installed today..



Most of my time at the moment is being spent on painting the big bugger in the background.

Damon,
I have no problem with an extension, may even give me time to finish mine but 6 months seems rather long.

I would like to hear what others think.

Cheers Rob.

PS, looking good Warren.

Ah, Ok,

There are only 4 builds in the gallery so far and I would like to have more finished builds in there. Will wait to hear from some others before deciding on the length of extension.

Cheers Rob.

I have my Dragon Wagon build and base coat of paint.
I need to add decals and then "weather" it.
I have lost several days due to Brother visiting and I know more days will be unavailable due to Christmas and Family.
Any additional time would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Tom Moon

I am calling this one done..



This is Dragon's Schwerer Plattformwagen Typ Ssy + Pz.Bef.Wg.III Ausf K (Orange Value Series 9118) without the Ausf.K. The tank is Tristar's Panzer IV Ausf.B.

All went well except the decals caused a few conniptions as they is no excess carrier film and those four in the middle wanted to fold themselves up each time until I started floating them off the backing paper into a puddle of water on the c. I then applied Micro Sol and they all dried nice and flat with zero silvering.

Thanks for a great campaign Rob.

Cheers
Warren

I am sure that I could easily use up two months trying to complete the faun.
