All signed up and ready to go, all I need to do is choose what to build, decisions, decisions, decisions. I'll let you all know once I've worked out what I'm going to build. By the way excellent campaign choice Stanley, nice one.

Stanley,
Operational Overview states "British Armor past or present", but in Rules and Reg section it states, "any British military vehicle". You may want to change or make this a little more clear as to what type of builds will be allowed. just my HO

Stanley,

It works for me! (But should I get out my pixel-ruler and measure the offset in the red diagonals to get it right way up? )

Thank you Alan. I tried to keep it as simple as possible by using the red, white, and blue, with the Tank Corps partial badge in the centre because when shrunk it can be hard to figure out what you are looking at.

Darren: That is a nice campaign ribbon, I was wondering how it would look if the landship were tan instead of gray?

I made the tank in a metallic finish as I have my Grandfathers medals one of which is the Africa star which because he was in the first army has a metallic number 1 on it.

Darren: I hope you don't mind, I added a metallic 3D effect to the tank object to help it better mimic something like your father's medal

(your original for comparison)

hi guys, thanks for all the feedback. Darren i think your ribbon is definetley better than mine, i did mine on paint; does anybody know of any different programs i could use to try and make another one. if i can't do it on something else, i will probably go with yours as the ribbon darren.
thanks for all the feedback and thanks for making another, better, ribbon darren.
