What do you think about these non-military campaign ideas?
Are any of them good or are they all not in any of your interests?

Seeing that the site is named Armorama, which focuses on military and armor subjects, I doubt you will get much response. The last one is totally lame and not a campaign at all. None of them are up my ally. Good luck.

Hurray for Hollywood Campaign would fit some of your requirements. Although most people will probably be building miliitary themed movies you can actually build any dio from any movie. I believe it would differ a little from your idea since the idea is to build a scene/dio (not just a character) from a movie.

You might want to check out the Civilian Uprising Campaign too.

what about this military/non-military campaign???

For the workers

Yes gents, a non-military campaign IS being held later this year, albeit on Armorama's younger sister, Historicus Forma.

So Luke, yes, all the ideas you covered above (except "what ever you want", as it should read "what ever you want as long as it complies with the campaign rules" ) will be included... but since you're enrolled for this campaign, I suspect you knew that already

Theres also "Gentlemen-start your engines" campaign - it's
totally non military as it covers classic racing and rallye cars.
I belive it now should belong to modelgeek site. You can
read about the campaign after clicking my banner.

OK has anyone notice my military/non-military campaign "For the workers" idea???

what exactly would be hte point of that campaign... jsut curiose?

Frank

a tribute the the workers who've toiled night and day to earn their pay and to defend the freedom of their country(s).

You mean like construction workers or factory workers? I think you'll have to give more details because I didn't understand "For the Workers" either.

soldiers, construction workers, factory workers, cops, mechanics, roofers, and any other person who actually breaks a sweat doing their job.

A construction worker diorama? Do you mean like a "Bob the Builder" LEGO set. No thanks, I'll stick to armor and guns.

irish

scratchbuild/convert them

What???????

you scratchbuild or convert the figures for construction workers

Luke,

This is covered by Civilian Uprising. Although I appreciate your suggestion it would perhaps be a duplication of the affore mentioned.

You are most welcome to enter multiple entries in CU, so you can enter your punks (although personally I think you should style him more along the lines of Johnny Rotten that the fellow you showed in that other link) as well as construction workers)

Rudi

Well, really only one comes to mind...how about you make a model of your first car? I don't know if this would fit into the "Civilian Uprising" campaign. Thanks for your time.

I'm not doing that guy. I'm doing two punks,
Tim Trmstrong and Lars Fredriksen from the punk band Rancid

Lars


Tim

Hmmmm...I agree with Irish. I'll stick to building stuff that goes BOOM or has the site changed to Punkarama?
