Campaign approved. Here is a link to the campaign page for enlisting.

Panzer 38(t) Campaign

Such a shame that Tristar doesn't seem to be making their Panzer 38(t) kits any more.

Man, there are a lot of vehicles built on the 38t chassis (and some really neat special ones too), so many in fact I cannot decide on what to get so I think I'll just settle for my paid for Italeri Hetzer... otherwise known as the 38t Jagdpanzer.

Jeff I did the Italeri kit long ago, it's an easy kit but lacking a lot of details.. I did the Tamyia a year ago maybe, I truly recommend it.
If you can get it, or if you have it in your stash, build it..

Well you got 1 right... , strangely I did choose a Marder III for the Marder campaign but for this one it currently looks like Tristars 38t kit.

Cheers.

@ John: not to rush you, the comment was for everyone to work on a ribbon to give you a hand. I have been playing with Paint on an idea, but nothing is coming out acceptable yet.

Hi John
Sorry for the late reply, only just checked in to see whats been happening.

My 38 build looks like it will be the tristar 020 kit E/F version.
The Marder also looks like it will be a tristar kit, kit number 030 which is the 7.5cm version.

Cheers.
