hello Andrzej,
how about Jan 2009,for the start of Blitzkrieg 2:North Africa that will give us alot of time to plan it out.
if any one has any suggestions for this new campaign,lets hear them.
cheers,
Bruce


Hi mate,
January '09 would be great! That's a lot of time to plan and a lot of time to enjoy other '08 campaigns . (I've enlisted to BIG GUNS 2 campaign and I think it will be consuming 100% of my modellers time during the second half of this year).
My current project goes a little slowly right now, but I hope that it will move forward today and through the weekend.
Andrzej


hello Andrzej,
i will Post the proposal next week.
cheers,
Bruce

Nice job, Adam You guys are sure moving fast, I need to catch up or I'll miss all the action!

Have the lower hull/suspension complete on mine so far, should I bore you guys with in-progress pics?

And is there a ribbon design yet?

hello James,
yes bring on the photo's,this way we can see how you build such good models.on the ribbon question,we have the dreaded red x,and no one has been able to fix it,do you have any suggestions on fixing it?

i am glad that MarkM has the gallery up,so is there a link on the Blitzkrieg Campaign page so we can go there to post our photo's and view all the builds?HINT HINT.
cheers,
Bruce

Hello guys,
thanks for comments

This tank has to be stand alone. Zvezda kit is the same exactly as Italeri's kit.
Simultaneously, at sunday, I have ended work over SdKfz. 265 PzKpfw. I Ausf. A (command tank) from Master Box. But I will present it to weekend. Now I finish figures of German and Polish soldiers.
My PzKpfw. I Ausf. B one more time:

Hi!
I haven't been here for a while...
@ Adam - great stuff! Looks very good. I know only figures from Zvezda, and they suck... it looks like vehicle is a little better (or you are miracle man ).

Here is some of my WIP - almost done interior of TK-3. It's very simple - just enough to have hatches open and to have something to see through them...:

Figures are almost ready, but they still need some love and care .
As usual - sorry for colors (one lamp at my desk is not sufficient to assure nice picture).
Andrzej

Hi Andrzej,
In my opinion, Zvezda model kits aren't worst. It's necessary a lot work over them, but results aren't bad. And this price!
As I alluded, I have completed SdKfz. 265 PzKpfw. I Ausf. A (command tank) from Master Box. I will make public it soon. Now I begin work with controversial Polish command tank - PZInż. 126 from RPM. But I will write more about it later. Andrzej - your TK-3 is presaged superbly!
Polish tanks rule! Poles begin counter-attack!

Adam and Andrzej, The Pz. I is not a Zvezda kit. It is an Italeri kit just reboxed. They have reboxed both Italeri, Academy, and Dragon kits to a large extent. Zvezda makes some good kits themselves fx. their BT-5 and T-34 are decent especially considering the price.

Adam, you did a very good job on the Pz. I. I like the way you dirty'ed up the running gear and made the smeared mud on the white crosses. A nice entry in the campaign.

Andrzej, your TK looks good so far. I have been tempted by these kits a lot of times but they have a bad reputation, so I am still gathering courage It will be interesting to see what you get from it and how the fit is.

Reinforcements are coming for the German forces - construction on my Sd.Kfz. 223 is progressing. Considering this is a kit from 1976 it has a lot of detail on the chassis. Almost tooo bad to hide it. I have not decided if it is for the invasion of Yugoslavia or for the war in the desert.
More to follow over the weekend

Yes, I know about it, that it's Italeri kit just reboxed. I have written several posts highly about it.
Yours Sd.Kfz. 223 looks very well...

@ Adam, you're doing great job! Who is producer of your Polish soldiers figures (CKM crew)?
@ Jesper, I know what you meen writting about detailed chasiss... I've done DAK 223 and I think that Tamiya produced better models 30 years ago than lot of producers offer today...

I'm doing all my best to finish figures this week - equipment still have to be finished.
I've also closed the TK-3 - now I have to start painting camo.
