So, based on the knowledge that we have as a group, is this even possible? How much money do you think would need to be raised?

Matt - You did a great job on it!

how about realistic paint job on an existing vehicle ? I am sure we will have more entry and contest will be more open to everybody without modeling or kitbashing skills. phil I think that this is a good idea. Most of us can paint.

After purchasing a defective halftrack from TRU, I sold the main body to a friend for customizing and here's what I have left: http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk155/Superfortress04/100_1747.jpg Not much, but I'm looking for ideas on what to do with them, hopefully to incorporate them into some c...
