Korean War Campaign Report

The Campaign

The Campaign was proposed in April 2010 as a Kitmaker-wide group build for a duration of one year starting January 1st 2011. The idea was to commemorate the 60th Anniversary of the Korean War with our builds. From a modeling point of view the attractiveness of this war is the diversity of subjects – from late WWII (Pershings, T-34/85, P-51 Mustangs, Corsairs) to early cold war (Centurions, M46, F-86 Sabres and MiG-15). The tiger faces that some US armored units painted on their tanks are of course another special challenge. The campaign had the necessary 10 participants after 2 days and was approved in no time. Starting in June, 60 years after the start of the Korean War, a regular history update was started in the campaign thread to include the history aspect of the campaign. Of the more than 70 enlistees, the following 26 received an award for completing their builds in time, with the exception of mecanix who got the (now standard in my campaigns) honorary ribbon for the most extensive unfinished (scratch) conversion. The subjects covered air and land warfare but unfortunately no ships or stand-alone figures.
