Same problem for me as well. Also, the campaign is not listed under the Campaigns Tab above.

Greg, I think you are going to force me into the Army Air Corp for a bit. BTW, your dio concept looks great. Can't wait to see how it turns out.

Happy Modeling, -zon

Hi Greg! I have just owned four 48-scale models, one was directed to Marder Madness Campaign. I select one of others, Italeri AB-43, Tamiya T-34/76 M.1941 and RPM Ford T. I am in, too.

Forgot to change the end date year to 2013 so the system thought the campaign was over already. Fixed.

Hi all, long time lurker and big fan of the site! I have wanted an excuse to do something in 1:48 for a while so this campaign seemed perfect!

I also brought me out of the shadows!

Enlisted for round 3! Now to decide what to do. I've always wanted to do AFV's 1/48 Sturmtiger...this may be the time to do it. Still have a JS-2 and Jagdtiger in the stash as well. And there's Gaso.line's M1 Abrams that I would REALLY love to do.

Greg I think we're gonna need a few more campaigns...

All signed up, I'm going to pick up one of the Tamiya Crusaders for this campaign. I've got 3 48 scale kits on the bench at the moment, they're such a pleasure to build.

Greg,
I am in, since I was not able to complete my sherman - life has that nasty way of interfering with fun. To meet the 48 v.2 into v.3 rules I will make a dio of the sherman with some figures, etc. Thanks for the second chance!

Andrjez has been awesome and designed us with the latest award ribbon to represent the scale.

So are unfinished from round 2 eligible?

If not I'll just do a plane or something

Round 2 unfinished models are allowed as long as you add a figure or a diorama scene. And vice versa: if you have a started scene, then you can add an un-started model. My hope/goal is to get more diorama builds this time around.

Just enlisted. Sorry, there won't be a diorams, just an Airfix Jackal and/or Coyote. Great build log of the Coyote in this months Airfix World magazine....shame they don't have any stowage in the kit.

Can anyone recomment a good set of modern British stowage (jerry cans, ammo boxes, bergens etc) in 1/48 scale?

So can I enter a Protze that I started in missing-lynx, but have not finished? I'll add figure and groundwork to make a vignette.

Hi Sean. There's not a lot of modern stuff yet, but Blackdog is probably your best bet as they make Modern US sets and generic tarps etc sets as well.

*****Check out free resin wheels from quarter-kit.com if you buy kit from them (they are an awesome company by the way and carry BlackDog too). Let me know if you need help navigating the site

Waikong - yes that sounds like a great build to enter and finish!

Nice to see you here Anthony. I usually hang out more on FSM, but for 1/48 armor, there's more happening here and in missing-lynx.

Better late than never but this time it will be either armor or a softskin... no helicopters for a while for me!
