My entry came today by UPS, could not find any armor that was either in stock or at a price that fit my budget so Eduards F6F fit the bill.
I like the middle banner and the ribbon is really an eye catcher.

Welcome Bob !
What is a Eduard Weekend Edition ? What markings are you planning ?
The kit has no PE or masking and only (1) decal set and at $16.22 USD I could not pass it up. This aircraft is for No. 1844 Sqn FAA, Sub-Lieutenant W. M. C. Foster, HMS Indomitable, Okinawa, April 12, 1945.
Nice looking kit, I may have some fun building this F6F after the last (Monogram 1966
)

@ Anthony: nice stuff for your Tiger and I want your paint rack, it would do a lot to organize my work bench
@Paul: I see that you are a youngster
and I loved anything Monogram just had a bit of trouble with the liquid glue lid not wanting to stay on while building the F6F so I had a lot of glue marks on the finished model
, but what do you expect from an unsupervised 13 year old. 1966 was an awsome year for me as well bacame a teenager

@ Bob, nice kit
@ Paul, I see that we were born in the same year, Bob is just jealous that we are a little bit younger
@ Anthony,I was gonna build that kit in a white wash camo but mine will no way in hell look as good as yours
I may have to switch my build which is not a problem I have 3 other Tigers in the stash

It might have already been noted but you can add the PLA ZBL-09 Snow Leopard IFV. And also the Wiesel 2 LeFlaSys Ozelot (dwarf leopard). Both are available in 1/35th scale from Hobby boss and Revell, respectfully.
I'm doing the latter for the anti-aircraft campaign. I'm still on the fence about what I might do for this campaign.

It is now the start of a new month in my sector, thus a few photos of my project. This is the old G.S. model which dml purchased at their start of their corporation. Have not thoroughly gone through the kit to see what needs to be upgraded. Will be using a metal two piece barrel.

Hey everyone. I am going to go with one of my favorite prop-driven fighters, the FM-2 Wildcat. I will be using the Hobbyboss 1/48th Scale FM-2 kit with Superscale decals. The decal options are awesome but I have not picked out which one I am going to depict. Looking forward to it.
Best wishes, Ian
It is a fact that under equal conditions, large-scale battles and whole wars are won by troops which have a strong will for victory, clear goals before them, high moral standards, and devotion to the banner under which they go into battle.
