Hi, all. Just wanted to remind everyone about the 'For Valour' campaign that begins in less than three weeks. There are only three others signed up, so if you've forgotten to do so, get over here and do so.

Though this is primarily for fig people, vehicles are allowed, so I'm going to post this in Armour and Dios too in case anyone has missed it.

I'm planning to model a 1/16 vignette of a Sri Lankan soldier winning the PWV (Parama Weera Vibushanaya), the counry's highest military award. It's been awarded only five times in 25 years of warfare, and all five winners did so posthumously. I am torn between two particular individuals I'd like to depict, and haven't made my decision yet.

Anyone else have anything planned?
