Hello,

Here's my entry for the Spahwagen campaign. It's an ITaleri Puma with Royal REsin wheels and Jordi Rubio aluminum barrel. The model and the aftermarket products are given to me by Blade48mrd. Thank you very much Mike.

Jerrycan braces are made of aluminum from soda cans. The "stand" for the width indicator is made out of wire. Antenna is made of stretched sprue.

The model is weathered using oil washes, acrylic washes, oil paint drybrushing and pastels. This depics the vehicle in dusty France.

Here are some pics























Comments and criticisms, as usual, are welcome.

Andrew and all,

Great campaign and outstanding entries from all. My apologies as I was not able to get my Puma done for submission to the Campaign. Caught stuck down in Florida on business for last couple weeks and couldn't meet deadline. My bad. Thanks to all for sharing those quality entries. I'll get mine done and plan on getting it into a diorama anyway. That makes two Campaigns this way now. I'm really hoping to get things settled down so I can enjoy a couple "completed" builds here very soon. Again sorry to let everyone down.

If anyone is curious, I've posted a couple pictures in my Gallery of what I've been working on. A kind of "build" though 1:1 scale and Aircraft related. It is a "Seat and Canopy Trainer" for the F/A-22 "Raptor" at Tyndall AFB in Florida.

Nice builds so far, unfortunatly i have to resign from the campaign, too. i wasn't able to get my sd.kfz 222 with the small vignette finished in even 5 months. i had 3 tough months at work, but i will see it done and post pics once i'm finished. the actual status is at 80 %...

It's okay, Mike and Foxy. Real life sucks but...well...it's real life.

Speaking of the campaign, are there any ribbons out yet? I haven't seen mine in my account page.

@ Angela:
Great work on the jerrycan braces. Made from soda cans, you say? Did you cut them out or did you use scissors?

Paul

Hi Paul,

Thanks for the compliment. Yes, I made them from Coke soda cans. They're great for scratchbuilding. I use them because there's no photoetch products in my LHS.

I used small scissors. I haven't tried cutting them with my Xacto but I think it can be done.

Angela

Thank you for your kind words 007. BTW, you did well also. I like your built, and I have got start saving to get the same kit you have there.

I will begin handing out ribbons very soon guys just need another day off.

Go ahead finish it and submit it anyway I'll get you a ribbon. I wasn't able to build either and I have been showing people plenty of latitude build it!! and have fun!

Here's my entry. I hope I'm not too late
It's tamiya's Dingo with some scratch built stowage racks and flimsies

Sorry missed post here is my 'little' offer
c squadron Para Recon - Arhnem

Just thought I'd post my pic here to be sure you got me down for the campaign..

Tamiya's 223..

everything came out great but the decals.. I am thinking of maybe redoing them this weekend if I get the chance but for now i'm calling it finished.

I know this is annoying but.....

.....is there a campaign ribbon for this one? I don't have any ribbon for this particular campaign in my account profile.

Doh!, posted the 'Greyhound' as a completed entry, and forgot this one:

Hi!
@ Delbert; try some future first, perhaps it will help to blend the decals on the vehicle.

@ Angela: Andrew mentioned he will hand out the ribbons asap. I know his job is killing him at the moment, so we have to be patient for a while

@ Pat, Ian and Dave: very nice entries guys!

Paul

I have posted my build pics in the gallery now as well, and started a thread. Thanks for the campaign, felt good to finish this build.

Here ya go! My Bandai 1/48 Act-rad.

Hi All,
Have the campaign ribbons be put on our porfiles? Just wondering.
Regards,
Georg

Me too. It's been quite a while and still no medals.
