hello all,
well a new campaign.and one that Gator will have fun doing.
i did not included it in the Rules,so there it is : after the campaign is over all the people who did the campaign will vote for the best model. the winner will get a new 1/350 model.
i hope that there will be a large group involved in this campaign.there is 3 signed up so far.
cheers,
Bruce

I'm in, too. Thanks for making the scale to "other" for my 1/6000 fleet. This should be interesting (to say the least)

Would a DUKW count, if so this may be of interest to the Armorama boys, either way, it lights my fire, so i'm in.

hello Andy,
yes a DUKW is O.K. any thing used in Amphib Warfare is allowed.so if anyone over at Armorama is interested,send them over.

I have been looking at the LCAC kit for a while, I might just go ahead and do one of those.

We can really pull a few guys from over on the armor side of things. DUWK's, AMTRAC's, AMTRAC's, just to name a couple.

thanks for signing up,still do not know what i am building for this campaign or what i am going to give away for the best model.
cheers,
Bruce

I think gunny spends most of his free time doing the odds and ends for the site......not much left for bench time.
