Hi,

Jesper, I like the way that mud naturally covers the track.
And also watch your work, Daniel.

My multi-purposed base:



Hope to finish it.
Sincerely,

I'm off to a bit of a late start, due to some family related stuff. I'll be doing Trumpeter's 1/35 German Pz.Kpfm KV-2 754(r) Tank....the captured German version. I was going to do this one for the Trumpeter Campaign but decided to build it for this one instead.

I'm going to push like all hell to get this thing done by the deadline but I don't see it happening, I had to leave for a week for work, and that really set me way behind schedule.

Here are some pictures of progress and where I'm at as of today.



I added some detail and wiring to the Turret as I felt it needed some work in that department
















Thanks for looking boys, and wish me luck as I'm going to be grinding on this one all night I'm sure.

Sorry about that.

I thought this one had a couple of months left before it ended. I haven't started on it yet so I may carry it over to the Trumpeter Campaign.

Is it possible to have this Group Build extended for at least another week? My build is nearly done but I just need to do some retouching of the paint job and a bit of weathering to fully complete it.

Hi,

Some work here nearly done. Extension a couple of weeks is a good chance, I think.

Cheers,
K.

Hi,

My native land is a tropical country.


So I don't know how beautiful the snow is. It's classical made from baking soda in my wife's kitchen. I call it finished with the KV-2 mod 1942 on.






Good health to all.
Sincerely,
K.

Here's why I wasn't able to complete on time!

My wife gave birth to our first girl on Friday night of last week. Needless to say, bench time has not been a reality!

so between diapers and feeding, I was able to get some bench time in today, and here's where I'm at as of today. I know there was some tossing around the idea of extending this campaign, and getting a later completion date.

has anyone made a decision on what that particular date will be?













Cheers!
