Greetings, Jonathan...
To answer your question, my man, is unfortunately as you have stated, no, only because it really wouldn't be fair to the other campaign enlistee's to let you enter a model subject that has already been started before the campaign has begun...I'm really sorry to say that, because it sounds like you have a very interesting build going on there...bending the rules would only corrupt the integrity of the entire campaign idea, and although I would really like to see this as an entry, it's just not the right thing to do...maybe you could just put this build on hold to start another fine warship, eh??...

I'm ready, just hoping I'll have a camera to post pics with. Mine was stolen. The cops caught the guy, but we're still hoping our camera will turn up in his stash of loot, or at some pawn shop. Until I can get another digital I'll have to use some throw away film camera and scan the pics.

Still going to be building the ships, just might not be able to show them right away.

I'm as ready as can be.. my colourcoat IJN paint and Wem Pe set arrived, and my Musashi is starting to even appear in my dreams now....
And my nightmares... some of the pe stuff is actually about as fine as a human hair...... just looking at it will probably bend it.

My main problem now is that i'll have to start moving and preparing my new home as from the 1st of August.. so I won't be able to start with the rest of you guys.... Probably only by the end of August or September, when things settle down and I can open up my boxes again without being afraid of losing stuff...

Ooh, and just a little word of advice for a lesson I learned the heard way: : NEVER pay any foreign order by banktransfer. The whole set and paint cost me 71 €, which I very gladly paid because it looks incredible..... until I got the expense note for the transfer: 31.25 €, which is about 40 usd.....
I could have bought me the new DML 88 kit for that.

But I'm soooo looking forward to this campaign that it's worth every penny!!

Now let's suprise everybody and start right away with the campaign!!!!
Please???
