Thank you very much Martin for leading the campaign. I had a very good experience for my very first campaign. Its also been a pleasurable and at the same time learning experience for me.

Cheers

I just posted my entry for this campaign: Hasegawa's 1/72 Jagdpanzer IV Early. I used Eduard's PE zimmerit, which came with the kit. It was pretty interesting to work with, and I like how it turned out.



I know I had originally said I would do Tamiya's 1/48 Hetzer, but it was kind of wrapped up in a incident involving a poorly mounted shelf, some really heavy books, and gravity. May it rest in peace...

Thanks for a great campaign, Martin! It was a lot of fun!

Well finally...
I've got my (crewless) M10 uploaded into the gallery.
It's meant to be a vehicle from 3e RBFM, 2eDb which took part in the liberation of the Royan Pocket in April 1945.

I don't thinkmy crewmen will arrive from Japan before the final date, so they will have to wait!

Thanks to Martin for taking on the campaign and being such a great motivator, reminding us that we have a job to do so get moving!
Well done to everybody who took part- it's good to see some of the more esoteric TDs making a showing as well.
Cheers,
MC

Martin, I bet Garry can see the result of his campaign. I also bet that he is happy with what you have done to the campaign.

Well, talking about that ribbon.....I don't think one is desinged yet.

Do we have an creative mind who can make one before wednesday?

I thought there was one designed already but I can't find it



Hi Martinnnn!

I can see that this Campaign is a great Success!!
Two more days to finish Mates - hit the workbench!!

Since I didn't participate on this Campaign, for known reasons, I think I can still contribute a little...
My Ribbon proposal for Garry Beebe's Tank Destroyers Campaign:


This is the .jpg, which needs to be at least 60x60, that's why there's this black frame aroud it
I have emailed you the .gif with the right dimensions

Congrats to all participants who have already finished!


Martinnnn, You have made Garry proud!!

Those are beautiful looking models there. What a great campaign.

Too bad I wasn't able to finish my Nashorn in time. Business and time just caught up with me.

Angela -

I'm sure I speak for many at Armorama when I say that the "Tank Destroyer" Campaign will miss what I know is/will be an outstanding build on that Nashorn. I know how hard you've been working to put in that extra special amount of detail and workmanship. We'll really look forward to seeing the final product when you get it done. I also "feel your pain" about not finishing the Campaign as I'm about as close to that point as I can get myself. What bothers me the most is that I feel I'm letting Garry and Martinnnn down with all that they've put into such a fantastic Campaign. Thanks Martin and you've done Garry more than proud!!! To all, these are all incredible entries and evry single one is a work to be proud of. Congrats to all.
I've got my JagdPanther about 99% done with only a couple "detail" items missing. I ordered Fruil tracks (which are on "back order" and to be shipped 30 Aug - thanks for the @#$%^&* advance notice Great Hobbies). I hope to "temporarily" put on a set of Tamiya vinyls to get a picture of what I've got. That will be the test as I've been saving for that digital camera, but not there yet so I hope a can get a "regular" picture done in time to post before deadline tomorrow. Wish me luck, poor time managemant and stupid job "priorities" may yet do me in.

My entry is done I have been hellish busy with work so I am tardy getting the photos finished. I will do that and submit the pics tonight. I did 2 for it. 1/72 entry and a 1/35th which still needs additional weathering but I am entering it as is because I want to put it on an diorama and I don't want to finalize the weathering process any further (it's had washes and some drybrushing) until I decide on that.
Look for a picture this evening.
