That time has come again so quickly. Please nominate up to 2 people who you think have either made great contributions to the site or individual users, been particularly helpful, or just need to be honored for their work. Please give a brief reason for your nomination.

To learn more about the User of the Month Award please visit here: UOM

I will start off the nominations with Bryan (Tin_Can) for his continued help with news itmes and gallery additions and Anders (AndersHeintz) for his help in moderating the Figures forum as well as his many posts on his projects.

Cheers,
Jim

I would like to nominate Faust and Eagle as my two votes. Both have been 'ever present' in the forums and post very good advice. They both put up very good campaign dioramas and Faust has added to the features section too.

I second the nominations for .... Faust and Eagle because they are Dutch speaking people #:-)

No seriously, because of the exact same reason as Scott mentioned before.

I nominate SS-74 (Dave), and Octopus (Steve).

Dave has posted a number of pieces to the Rivet Review over the last several months, i.e. Bismark, Nashorn, M10, and more.

Steve's M26 Pershing can currently be viewed in the "New Features" section of Armorama.

These guys do beautiful work, know their subjects, and always answer fellow modelers questions, plus are active in the Amorama chat.

Pretty good candidates they are---yesssssssssssss- they are preciousssssssss

I would like to nominate SS-74 and Holdfast. Dave is always very helpful with tips and a constant contributor to the rivet review. Plus he just makes the site alot of fun to visit, particularly the chat site. Mal has almost single handedly brought the interest in aircraft up a few pegs. His posts and enthusiasm for ac group builds has brought some of us wingy lovers out of the closet. Plus all the pics of his work and the willingness to share his experience with others.

SS-74 for sharing his works in Rivet Review, and inspiring me to try and match his skills.

Slodder for his contributions in many of the forums, sharing his knowledge and passing on "tips and tricks", helping fellow modelers get over those "rough" spots.

It's difficult, the longer I am involved in this site the more people I find who are so very friendly and helpful.

But... in this case I would like to nominate Faust - Robert, he is always so eager to help and gives advice freely, and secondly Holdfast - Mal, whose interest and knowledge of the aircraft scene is obvious and has infected me somewhat (maybe I'll get better, but I doubt it ) Thanks guys

Once again I'm nominating ROADKILL - one of the most helpful resources for information and photos in our group. His website is a diamond mine!

For my second nomination, how can we keep overlooking FAUST! The guy does a ton of posting and is both helpful and full of great ideas!

Roadkill and Faust - so says Aye!

I just noticed that the UOM voting page does not include Dave (SS-74) while the above quote mentions him.
