There seem to be so many that deserve this (as usual), but I've looked back through recent postings and nominate Grumpyoldman ( Dave O'Meara) - no matter what the subject he comes up with constructive comments and advice without being 'nit-picking'.
ShermiesRule could also be a good nominee for the same reasons, as could Savage for his co-ordination of the Costas Releif Programme.

For me it would be Flitzer. Plenty of good advice and all those wonderful banners! It amazes me that he has time to model with all the work he's done for us computor luddites!!

I'd like to nominate loads of the guys for this but as it's only one allowed I'd like to nominate Flitzer, not only for the wonderful banners but also for his enthusiasm for the site.

I'd like to go with Juul (Zero Cool), he's been pretty active in the figure forum lately and always brings positive suggestions and comments on figures. He also takes constructive points on his kits well. All around another person to have posting on this site.

Thanks for the nomination Dave but there are many more before me----- much more deserving than I. I am amazed at the weath of knowledge that gets exchanged here each day.
Not to mention the amazingly upbeat and cheerful senses of humor that fly around.
I still laugh when I read the "I need a wife".... and the "Freak" threads...... all written extremely tongue n cheek, and an excellent way of getting to know each other better.
But my nomination is for :
the dude who takes the time to make the awards, and banners.

Flitzer......... !!!!!

I would like to nominate ex-royal for his banner making skills as well. He contacted me, asked me if I would like one and then designed it. He also is a strong contributer to many discussions on the forum boards.

I have to go with Fitzer this month. His features on Luft 46 camo schemes and his banner work are both first rate.

I have to go with Costas(Major Goose), Engin (Graywolf) and Paul(Flitzer). Costas is unbelievable after facing the hardhsip he just went thru, he was back posting giving advice in a day or two. Thats commitment!! Engin is always there too giving advice everywhere on the site, and flitzer and all the time and work he puts in on these incredible banners and awards!!! Its going to be a tough one this go round for me to pick Cheers Kevin

My votes go to; Paul (Flitzer) for the amazing banners and ribbons he has to date put together, and Costas (Major Goose) as he went through deep water and came out the other end and I believe this event strengthened the Armorama community.

If possible I would ask that the guys and gals who helped Costas get back on his feet (physical as well as moral support) get a mention in this month’s award, as they went way beyond the call!

Thank you

Hi
again the most difficult time of the month.
There are so many deserving and worthy...

From the older members I have to mention
Major Goose
Graywolf
BrandydogUK
GreatBrit

and from our newer members that have quickly taken Armorama's values straight to their hearts

Grumpyoldman
Logansdad
and Winchweight

But on balance and looking at his 2768 posts of always excellent advise and help, I have to go for:

"AJLaFleche".

Thanks for the votes, it means a lot

Thanks and cheers
Peter

I'm still new here and a lot of people have helped me out a lot. Some of those are: Flitzer, HeavyArty, Grumpyoldman...... including many others. I know this is going to sound stupid, but I vote for all actively envolved Armorama members.

this is always the hardest moment in Armorama every month. there are too many people to nominate.
Major Goose ; he had a great disaster and was about to quit modelling but never thought to be out of Armorama.
....and Flitzer ; You know him

well as always a pretty difficult time for every one .

I usually have to nominate one but this time i ll have to do more.

1. Armorama community for proving once again that its far beyond a modelling site, a strong family .

2. Graywolf for his great support , on members of the site in every case, and of course my fire adventure.

3. Savage for doing a huge effort to gather all members around my problem , and he succeeded so fast

4.Flitzer for his neverending willingness to help and do banners and all thats needed here.

Difficult work this time !!!! as always anyway !!!!
keep safe guys

Costas
