Awesome. Glad to have you along. This one should be a kick--lots of opportunity for towed ordnance, cargo, figures, and most of all, FUN!

I'm building "Popski's WASP" for the RESIN Campaign...so for the JEEPS Campaign I'll be adding 2 members of "Popski's Private Army"...
P.S. That's the WASP on the far right...

Good picture, and he wrote an enjoyable book.
The GAZ came in, and double. I found a really good deal on ebay so got a second kit.
I found a nifty feature on the forums called HIDE USER.
I was going to try it on myself and go stealth, but it only works on other users.

Here is mine:
1/35
Tamiya WIlly's
Bronco M3A1 37mm
Legend SAS conversion
Verlinden stowage
Verlinden C-Ration boxes
Echelon decals
Archer placards
and some assorted stowage and interesting bit and bobs.
I'll be doing this one to represent a fresh-off-the-boat, lost somewhere in France unit (unspecified/identified), circa June 9, 1944. Base will be a Verlinden cobblestone road, with some scratchbuilt scenery. Figure/s TBD.

@ Christian – You should use that image for the campaign's opening page!
I’m just about to finish up the ‘Half a Year for a Half Track’ Campaign and I need to build a companion Jeep for a diorama... perfect timing! ⏰
Count me in with the Bronco (35107) US GPW 1/4 Ton Utility Vehicle.
Beeeeep!🍺
