Ahoy mates!
Are YOU signed up and building an entry in the Leyte Gulf Campaign?
You have only sevendays left until the final close of this excellent MSW campaign, and I haven't heard any extension requests, so hopefully we're all on the same page here...........
October 31, 2007, will be a wrap, forum threads will be locked, and the ribbon award process will then begin...please be sure that you have uploaded your finished entry images into the proper campaign gallery album as well!
Thanks to all for participating and supporting this campaign!

Remember mates, I have NO problems with an extension, if you need it...

That would also be neat
An extention till October 31st?
I think that that would allow a not so stressfull entry finish

Can I claim an extension slightly longer than the 31st? Like maybe Nov 4th? I've been playing Grand Dad the last couple days, and I may not be able to get back to the workbench until after Sunday 10/28.

Thanks guys. I'm getting to work on her soon as I take my daughter and grandson back to the hospital for a blood test. BTW, I've thought of a "handle" for the little guy, 3/4 Yank. His Mom doesn't like it, but surprisingly SWMBO, AKA Grand Ma, thinks it's cute.

Thanks Guys
This also helps me out after my dramas with my airbrush (documented elsewhere).
Until 5 November helps me out but I am still aiming to be finished this week.
Cheers

Ahoy Shipmates
The mighty IJN Isuzu is now finished.
I am very pleased with it and want to thank everyone for a little extra time to finish it.
It was a very full on weekend to say the least and I got no pictures of it.
I will take some and post them asap.
Cheers
