Steve. I have enlisted in your Campaign. Please note that I'm switching my build to a Trumpeter KV-2, so I can stay within the rules and timeline that you have set.

The KV-1 I already have in-progress will not be entered in this Campaign.

Thank you for starting this build, and I look forward to participating. Maybe this time I can actually COMPLETE a model

Now I will have to have to pop in my Enemy at the Gates DVD, and get motivated for the Red Army

Cheers !!

Aaarrgghhh, Great campaign!
But I'm allready enlisted in too many campaigns as it is...
And I have a pile of unbuilt Russian beasts...

Life is not fair.

Im keen on this.

Having only ever done 1 Red Army tank (a lovely Dragon T34 kit in 1:72nd) I'm all for doing more and bigger stuff. Just have to pick one now...

Could be a good excuse to finally build my Dragon T-34 in 1/35, so I think I will join up.

Sounds like an interesting campaign. I've got a Tamiya T-55 in stash... I must say, campaign's are a great way of minimizing your stash.

Hello, Marcin!
Normally, you can't start on a campaign entry before the official starting date...You might want to give Steve (WeWillHold) a pm and ask him personally though, as this is his campaign.

I just enlisted last week. I'm going to be doing a T-55AM2B from the Tamiya T-55 kit, and the Panzershop conversion.

I'm in too. Got a Trumpeter KV 1 that I'm determined to build OOB! Also a Tamiya T-34, which I suspect will need some tweaking to come up to scratch...
