You guys can post pictures here on the last day if you want but that's cutting things mighty close. I hope all your projects are going well. Remember you can have more than one entry.

Id love to go in it... if only it was 1/32 :cry: I have next to nothing in terms of 1/18. I think I have 8 (???) figs lol. I am going to try and get others to set up a 1/32 or 1/35 contest :) Now we just need prizes...

:cry: :cry: :cry: Due to other commitments I have to cut back on what I'm entering, so it looks like the truck is going to get canned. I'm still in this thing, but it'll probably just be the field gun itself.........dammit!

Even a custom field gun would be impressive by itself Jay. You guys in the contest have about 1 month left. Make us proud :wink: .

Mark, I am still in but have been on the road for the last 4-5 weeks! I have fallen WAY behind on project 'B' but expect to 'take it to the next level' this upcoming 3-day weekend. Need to make some great progress this next week BEFORE I pull and Willie and 'On the road again'.

G'day KAMIKAZE

As this is not strictly an original idea in that “Gunner” posted a simular customisation over in the “Buy, Sell, & Trade Forum”, I was wondering if my m247/M40A1 106mm recoilless conversion would still be eligible for this contest as I have expanded considerably upon both "Gunner's" original concept and that of the model kit used as a basis for this project?

I would have to say that it qualifies under the criteria of the contest because two people have worked on very similar projects in the past and if I don't allow things that have already been done then eventually we will run out of subject matter for our contests.

KAMIKAZE,

Does a STRV-103 qualify?
Or is it a tank?

Sorry Moth, Technically this thing is classified as a main battle tank although I would consider it more of a tank destroyer than a tank. After researching this thing I am amazed they built such a mechanically complicated tank. I really wrestled with this question as technically a tank is a mobile anti-tank gun, but I felt I had to draw the line somewhere. How about making a Sargent York AA gun, an M-42 Duster, Kubelblitz, or Hummel. Hope this doesn't ruin your day man.

No, no problem, I havent started anything yet.
It is a cool little thing, I love how it looks like, and the fact that one person can operate the thing. Here are some videos of it,

Impressive work, Grognard. Looking at your M6, I can't help but thinking how terrified the Germans & Italians musta been of this deadly weapon system ;) Are the 21C SdKfz 222 and SdKfz 251 in the background custom jobs as well?
