@ Jose: did your KV-1 come with an aluminum barrel? If so that was a nice suprise, I am sure that it will look better than the plastic one on my KV-2.

@ Jose: you cheated 
using PE 
I saw an article regarding the PE on a KV. Those pictured had the plastic shaved away with a Moto Tool then the Pe attached, looked really good.

Jose: The KV is coming along very nicely.
Mukund: Your photos aren't showing up. It says you've moved them.
I've managed some more progress on my Pz IV. Next is the tracks and then some paint. Some of the PE bits on this thing are teeny tiny.
Happy Modeling, -zon

It's looking a lot like a factory in here! Looking good Bob, Jose, and Zon 
It's about time for me to dig my kit out it's humble storage spot.
Mukund, what happened to your photos? You have a very nice build.
Just a heads up, expect our fearless leader Bruce to make an appearance sometime this week

Hi Zon, Thanks for the heads up. I think I need to edit my links. You have got a great build going. Nice and Clean. Keep up the good work.
Hi Jose, I have done some weathering. Not sure how to fix the old links. So posting the new pics instead.
Hi Jeremy, I have to edit my links but could not find the edit option. May be edit available only for few hours... Any way posted new pics. Thanks for the reply..
Have a Great Day

Great KV-1, Mukund. Nice paint job.
My entry for this campaign will be the venerable Tamiya Sd.Kfz. 251C. I will upgrade it with some tools and radios from the spares box and a PAK 37 to make it the Sd.Kfz. 251/10 version.
More to follow

Hello All,
I have seen some "GREAT WORK DONE HERE". Thank you all for not only joining this campaign But, Also for giving your HEART and SOUL to it. I wish to thank JEREMY for watching over it while I have been away with the Doctors and the Medical Centers out east. More about that later.
I am thinking about doing some of the following:
A Tiger 1 1/48 scale with figures
A StuG Aust F III 1/35 scale with figures
A Stuka wit skies 1/148 snow scene
OFF TOPIC:
Now about why I have been gone so long. After I had my toenail removed, My Docs noticed some problems. I went to Hospital for a full work up. They sent me to a Great Medicial Hospital out east and I was there for 2 months for test. They found that I have Stage 2 Late Bone Cancer. It has already started into Stage 3 which means that tumors are spreading all over my body. I have decided not to do any treatment. I Have 36-48 months till I die.
Jeremy will keep the Blitz series gong and I will be around to help him. As the pain get worst I will resign as a staff member at MSW.
I thank all of you for making the Blitz Series the best running Campaign here at Armorama. I will be around it you need me.
Cheers,
Bruce

Hello All,
I pick the Skuka with skis to do. Now I need to find a newspaper with a good date on it , The household staff keeps trowing out the paper when I finish with it.
Do not worry Guys, I am still in charge till the end of this campaign and I do expect great things in the next few months as this is my swan song.
I have plenty of 50 yr old Scotch, tons of very good beef to eat, pounds of the cigars to smoke and 2.5 millon books to read.
I am not ready to drop dead yet, give me a few years yet, OK.
Cheers,
Bruce
