Hey all
I won't be able to finish on time. I am so far behind, barely anything started. Work has had me away and a colic baby has stoped most of my modeling at present so I will have to drop out of this build. When finished I will post pics.

Did the Commonwealth build die? Haven't seen anyone mentioning it for a while.

I started my Husky ARV but it won't be done by the due date either. Too much to do with work and too much to fix on the kit.

gentlemen,
im pleased to hear you are still building. the GB seems to have been overshadowed by the campaigns going of at the moment, and the end date is supposed to be the 1st june.
if you are still interested, i could extend it to allow you all to complete your builds.
it would also allow me to complete a few more!
cheers

Ooo, a group build of Canuck stuff!
I'm new here and didn't know this was happening. If we have more time, I might get my Ram OP done (but not unless the extension is at least a couple of months).

It was a Commonwealth/UK build where just about any present or former commonwealth vehicle was allowed. Nice friendly build with loose rules. Unsure when it ends, I built an old Matchbox Comet for the build. It was a fun kit to tackle.

Hi Rob,
Which Cougar kit are you building, the Hobby Fan one? What is it like?

Yes it is and thanks for the kind words. Those of us who build Canadian armour seldom have a choice but to build unusual subjects (unless they are Shermans, of course).
