I will try to get the folder created within the week so please bear with me. I would like to start off by cleaning up all the inactive campaigns in there.

The folder is all set for your 1st of Feb launch!

All The Best!

Hi Ralph,

OK I've enlisted and I’m looking forward to this one. My build is going to be the Tamiya 1/48 Crusader I/II which is not released for a couple of weeks yet but that shouldn't be a major problem.

Btw, is going to be the official thread for the build?

Cheers
Darren

Hi Ralph,

I've got a problem...
I like this campaign, for sure, and I have an idea in mind.
But it doesn't really stick to the theme of the campaign.
There is my question : Can a donkey could be considered as a vehicule ?? and can the diorama could be focusing on figures only (apart from the donkey ).
If not, I will add a vehicule, but my first idea was without..
Thanks for your reply.

Hello Darren, if you want, you can create your own thread about your progress shots.

Fellas. Fellas... Please note that this campaign is under Armor/AFV. The focus of this build are vehicles, not figures (although they are welcomed, but not necessary).

I am up for this one. I have not decided on any particular vehicle yet, but it will probably be something German......

Ralph,

If I understand well, a vignette with only figures don't match the campaign requirements ? And you don't consider donkey as a primal armor ?
Ok I enlist and will see what could I do.

Best,
Julien

Yep. Sorry to say that, but we stick to the inorganic type of armor

Oh yeah. I forgot about that. Bring it to a yellowish color and it is accepted. Diorama is better.

Color it yellow my friend, and no harm will be done

I know you want some "yellow" but what about the SAS Land Rover "Pink Panther" ?

I'm in! I'll be building my Tamiya Quad Gun tractor with a British 6 Pounder (in case someone says the tractor lacks the firepower :-) ). Time for preparation... Bad luck that my modelling booth is currently out of action due to repairs in my room.

When will the campaign end? Since we start in February and assuming it takes 6 months, will it end at July?

Hmmm, I haven't built any German armor in many years. I'll see what my stash will give up for this one!

Hi Ralph,

FYI, ive re-titled the subject header for this thread and made it a sticky in the campaigns forum so that all members can easily find it.

Hi Jeremy,

I know this campaign says desert yellow but does that also mean more of a faded sand yellow? Or sand??

For color example purposes:

OK, Im signed up. Not sure what I am going to build yet. But I have in my stash an M1A1 AIM, an M923 Gun truck to build (in desert sand of course), an M113A2, and an old Academy M2 Bradley. So, I'll be building one or all of these. Time will tell. Cyas!
