I'm still in for this one, but it might be a bit before I can start. I have a Trumpy BMP-3 with the add-on armor in the stash, but I might go with something else. I just don't have the time to try to do the interior justice.

Okay here’s my ambitious project for this campaign, a T-80UDK Model 1985. I don’t have the box lid to the skif kit anymore as this has been in my stash for a few years as I slowly built up the stuff needed for the build.
Here’s a list of everything I will be using for the project:
Skif’s T-80UD
SP Design T-80UDK Model 1985 conversion kit
SP Design T-80UD Model 1991 conversion kit
SP Design replacement upper hull for T-80UD
SP Design replacement road wheels
SP Design replacement drive sprocket and idlers
Eduard photo etch for both Skif and Dragon
Miniarm’s Kontakt blocks A &B (2 sets)
Voyager’s Russian antenna bases
Voyager’s modern Russian grenade launchers
Voyager’s 7.62mm coax replacements barrels
And last but not least, bits and pieces from Miniarm’s T-64 kit.

If it's okay with everyone I'd like to join with Italeri's Panther. 
I will also use RB Model barrel.

For this campaign I've decided on the Academy IED Humvee with the hill-billy armour panels added to the side of the cargo bed....need to finish a few other bits before I start though

I like Paul's 'Patton'. Never would have guessed it was an M48 under that box. Going to my hobby shop today, I think they have a Panzer IV Ausf G or H with skirts on it. I just hope it's not drastically marked up like they normally are (sometimes over 50% markup).

Hi Christopher, you can´t see very much of the original turret on my resin kit, and boy it´s heavy.
Tough going on the reduced kit choice, I know what you mean as that has happened to me plenty of times. My wife says then " you shouldn´t be so damned tight, then you would of got it"
and I answer "yes but if I buy these kits at full price you put the house keeping up, and threaten to sell my stash" . hope she isn´t watching this Paul

Quick update.
I've cleaned up the doghouse and made most of the Tamiya kit now.
I've dry fitted the doghouse (having removed some of the kit details) and every thing fits ok.

Hey everyone, I have a Tamiya M60A1 with ERA that qualifies. I have filled the motorization holes, then stuck her on the shelf. Can I get in with this?

I'm thinking about maybe trying to do a StuG IV with a concreted front. May even do a captured one.

Quick update. Got some paint on her now - Humbrol 84. I'm always wary of Enamel paints (usually stick with Acrylics) and the paint is still quite soft but I'm hoping that'll harden in the next few days. Also rebuilt the bracket son the TOGA armour as the kit ones were just way too fiddly.

It took a day or so to get organized, but here's the starting photo.
Tamiya's M60A1 RISE with ERA. It will be a USMC tank and will be painted the three color NATO camoflage.
