Jazza,
I'm still around. I only showed pictures of the model done before paint. It is sitting right now on the bench waiting for weathering now. I should be able to make the deadline. All I need is two good days to finish.

My Fujimi Type 90 is built but not decaled or weathered. I'll finish in plenty of time. The main issue was my decals were cracked. I had to apply liquid decal film to the markings. Sort of took the wind out of the build.

Looks like you did a little kit bashing on your warrior. Which kit is this from? Doesnt look like the Academy version...Trumpeter?

its really funny that you mentioned this as i had the same issue when building my M966 hummer and the decals seemed to have been smudged out of the box. Took me awhile to 're-motivate' myself to complete the kit so i know exactly what you mean.

As you mentioned, there's still plenty of time.

Do check out the Gallery when you guys have the time. Some of the photos taken by stormfront aka Graeme Davidson looks like its the ones to be submitted for his next Osprey published book.

I’m still here. I don’t know if I’ve moved the newest of my pictures to the gallery or not but I’ll check on it.

I think I’ll be able to get my bradley done on time but I’ll probably be pushing it a little.

Nice Abrams patrick! Nice attempt at the night vision. Does the turret read " No Trespassing"? If so, thats quite hilarious. Didnt the US troops Trespass?

Will update the list shortly but im sure there are tons more people with photos that they forgot to add in. We have close to 80 people enlisted.

C'mon guys...share the photos out!

Here's my AFV Club FV 107 Scimitar with kit supplied decals and as-per-instruction cam.. In one month I shall have it detailed and weathered and hopefully on a base of some sort.
I'm never AWOL either!

Sorry for the late answere Jeremy.
The kit is Academys Warrior with a Accurate Armour update kit bought as a combi kit several years ago. Your campaign was a perfect opportunity to build it.

And even though I was assumed AWOL for a while, I was actually WIA...



Cheers
Erik

Erik,
Your Xacto is not a bayonet! I know, you where just trying to do one of those moves that Stevan Seagal and Tommy Lee Jones was doing on the Under Seige movie! :-) :-) :-)

Throw some super glue in the wound and continue the march soldier!

Too funny, Seargent!!! :-)
As a fact I'm working on my Warrior right now. Got to get it finished for the campaign, so I can start building some American armor.

And for the record: When I became a Staff puke they took my bayonet away and issued me a MP-5, so it is only fair that I hurt myself on sharp and pointy thingies...

Cheers
Erik

Jazza, I have a slight problem.

I wanted to enlist but I have serious "time frame" issues, I have to work away from home in another city for about 2-3 weeks. That gives me only 2 weekends to work on my Dragon T-80, which is only partly assembled (I was constructing the turret when I left). I hope it is OK if I make a last minute enlisting depending on the condition of my model.

I don't like being a quitter so I hope you don't mind a "bystander" in your campaign. I will try my best to join, let's see what happens.

No worries Emre. There aren't any restrictions around late enlistments. You'll just get placed on guard duty if you go MIA or worse....AWOL.
