Sal, love the M-26, nice model. What did you think of the kit? I've got one but haven't looked at it much since I bought it about 10-15 years ago.


Hi Don thanks for the complement. I really liked this kit it was a bit more than the typical Tamyia kit with a bit more detai but with that same easiness . Probably the largest Tamiya kit I ever built. Had fun with it and that's what counts.
Great campaign Matt thanks for the extensions


Glad you finished, Sal. That is some excellent work!

Thanks for the fun campaign, Matt. It encouraged me to unshelve and build this little kit.

Way to go KoSprueOne! Nice job, I love the weathering and the way the wood parts came out.
Take care,

I will be having a busy week... I sent the ribbons to those who finished and got their builds on the Gallery.

So if you guys need a few days to wrap things up, post your photos and I'll recheck the award ribbons

Thanks, Nito74

eMan, nice finish on that Recovery Vehicle. The 'rubber' tire effect you created looks fantastic

Hi friends,

I consider finished my sd.kfz.251/7 Sturmbrucke.

This time I like to build it not heavily weathered and rust-free. I like to see it almost new, just sent to Nederland during blitzkrieg...

here some pictures:









The kit is 1:35 AFV, dated 2004. I should say that the kit is good, very detailed, with clear instructions and no mistakes.
Tracks are vynil type, one piece, correct shape. Easy to fit.

I've enjoyed the build and I'm quite happy with the result.

Cheers

Giovanni

Just now I've realized: maybe the deadline already expired...

Ok, any decision from the campaign Leader is well accepted.

Thanks

John said he would give you "a few days", yesterday. I will stand by this, if he allows it. Say, Friday?

I had hoped for more, considering two extensions. But, it is what it is.

Dear Matt and John,

Good day to you. Thanks for the ribbon, well received and proudly displayed

No matter how many completed the campaign. For sure ''Panzerkampfwagen IV Campaign'' is more popular subject, but anyway I enjoyed the build and I've added one more sd.kfz.251 to my family

All the best

Giovanni

Matt, with 13 participants, 8 finishing that's a great ratio.
Trust me...
There were some good Campaigns that ended with 1 or 2 finishing members...

Howdy Y'all

I agree, this was a good campaign. The subject matter was specialized and got the few dedicated souls who were interested. Thanks for the great campaign idea and a well-run show, and a sweet ribbon.

Take care,
Don "Lakota"
