Groupbuild - Three Month build - PTO $$PRIZE

Pacific Theather of Operations

Start date is July 15th with a Deadline at October 15th.

Rules are:
Have as much fun as possible n' post one starter photo n' at least one progress photo of your build in this thread.
In the end you shall send in a maximum of five photos (per model) of your finished model to me.

Guidelines are:

1. Kit should be of a model from the WW2 era.

2. Kit should be of a Aeroplane, AFV, Figures or Ship that saw action in PTO.

3. All scales is allowed as well as multiple entrys. Build away.

4. Judging will be public, in case of a tie we could use Cyberia and/or me as tiebreaker.

Good Luck n' have fun!

Re: Groupbuild - Three Month build - PTO

I plan to do that yes even if I may be a tiebreaker. I hope as many as possible will join this build free of Tigertanks but maybe not free of Tigers...

Re: Groupbuild - Three Month build - PTO

Do so mate! The build won't start 'til tomorrow anyway. But I agree on that the possibillity's is many for a general PTO build. Plus it's your backyard so to speak.

Wonder if we'll see a Boomerang or a Wirraway?

There will once again be a $25 (US) award to the winner in the form of a gift certificate. Retailer to be determined.

I think I saw something yesterday that I could do, I just have to check and see if it was in the Pacific, it should have been, but I'm not real sure.

Cheers, good pick here!!

Re: Groupbuild - Three Month build - PTO $$PRIZE

Thanks Jim. That's very generous of you once again. A bit more incentive for some as well.

Now McCoy, a Boomerang or Wirraway. Let me see, I used to know what a boomerang was - I know it was in an ABBA song........
