cool animated gif
I always wanted to know how to make those. Thanks for making this one.
also another thing, there should be one more gear between the two on the bottom to function properly.

Cheers,

I corrected the banner.
@KoSprueOne - you're 100% right concerning the gear... I just love the absurd of this animation so much that I've decided to use it

EDIT:
Ribbon is done too:

I hope you like it. If you don't - PM me, I'll change it.

good looking ribbon. Very traditional sapper.
banner: are you going to add a gear or just leave it as is?

I will definately leave the banner as it is

Just looking at it makes my brain try to run away through my ears

Thanks for oppinion on ribbon - it was Scott's idea to use this tool set as a theme, also colors are as suggested.

Would Bronco's M2 Bailey Bridge count?
Edit: I'm still in,
I've picked up the Revel boxing of the M48 Scissors Bridge, have a 1/72 Biber & 1/35 Resicast AVLB bridge in the stash...
I'll narrow down the pick closer to the time!
Erm, is there an 'official' sign-up page, or is this it?
thanks in advance, Jon

If you go to the campaigns box at the top of the screen then go to the lower left hand side of the page you will see the list of campaigns then just click the military engineering one and enlist.

I might join you on this one, but I'll wait a bit longer to see how the other campaigns I enlisted progress... I have a Legends M31 Conversion waiting to be attached to an old Tamiya M3 Lee that is partially built (and would have to be partially unbuilt...)
Cheerio!

Stefan,
I've got that M31 set too! Picked it up at a show over a year ago, but haven't done more than look at it. Mine is going on a Tamiya M3 Grant, but I got stalled researching the interior. I hope this campaign will get me started on it and the M32 (both of which are benefitting from the contents of a Dragon M4A1 "early")...
Be interesting to compare notes during the build!

Tom
That would be great! We could do a buildlog together. I haven't started anything yet, apart from building most of the M3 long time ago. I will have to take it apart agin... I also have to get an early M3 suspension somewhere. I don't seem to be able to get a Dragon or Tasca one here in Switzerland.
The Legends set looks good enough, but there is a significant amount of warping on my example, for example the turret roof is quite noticeably caved in...
Cheerio!
