OK,
got some idea's for some campaign/group build next year,

A, light panzer tank -any light tank any nation/time scale
ie. germany panzer 1-2 all versions
allies stuart/chaffee all versions
soviet -t-40 ect
US-sheriden
UK scimitar/scorpion
any scale/level of detail


B, under new management,
this can be armour/softskin/artillary/ship/aircraft
that has been captured and pressed into service against it's former owners
only rule for this is you MUST provide a pic of the peice you are modelling!
once again any scale/detail level ect

Light tank build sounds good to me. Force me to finish one of my Scorpions or Scimitars. And I've got an AMX-13 with Chaffee turret laying around.

Option B sounds good as well.

Davy, I like 'em both. Light tanks seem to be oft overlooked or overshadowed by their heavier cousins. would be fun to see some new ideas in there.
as for 'B', I'm calling "Cukoo" right now!

hi Davy,
Both are good ideas.I especially liked the second one. it can be named as Traitor Vehicles . building a light armored vehicle can also be so funny. saxon armored ambulance is one of my favorites but i dont know there is an available kit for this.

The option B looks very good for me.
I was thinking for a long time in a theme like that, since I saw a Messerspit built by Rian Jones.
Take a look:

the model is at Hyperscale.
Sure, I'll partipate too.

Good point Cliff,
I'd suggested the turncoat build to Jim almost 18mths go if not longer and he'd thought it a good one to do I was hoping to get it under way early this year but a few other campaigns kicked off and I decided to let most of them run on before submitting this one
