I'll go with a 1/48th Italeri Pavehawk.  I have PE for it coming in the mail soon, so I will have that.  It will be done as a MH-60G in the three tone desert camo used in ODS.

take care,

Austin

Well since I need to be done by October 29th some thing simple is in order. Mirage 1/400 U-803, pretty easy kit and it should take only three weeks or less to get done. Ah heck might as well add in other one to go along with it Mirage 1/400 ORP Sokoi Polish Submarine.

I'm in reb.  no idea what Ill do.  hhmmmmmmm, nothins really changed has it?Big Smile [:D]

.....as far as rap goes, I really don't care.  I just put that in there A) because I'm a member of the 8%, and B) theres a chance it will actually annoy someone, and anyone who goes off the deep end becuase of something like that deserves to be laughed at....My 2 cents [2c]

Id put in my own saying I was part of the 92% but I cant fit text in my sig with the pic there. Took forever to get it the right size.

ok, I want some feedback here, what would you rather do,

T-34/76 oob in german markings diorama

H39 Hotckiss with interior. Kit comes with interior but I will have to add alot to bring it up to a full interior.

or

An opel Blitz with plenty of stowage, eduard pe, resin wheels, and a scratbuilt bed

Or,  a dio of Lt. Winters taking out the 105's on dday.

I am leaning toward the top 3, not sure what I want to do though. What would you guys build?

Do the OOB T-34/76. You guys keep complaining about never finishing your builds on time, so mabye building OOB will help that.

well, the badges used to be issued on completion of the build but the most people just take them right away now days. (i sound like and old person!)

Honestly, I really dont like either of the badges. All of the young guns badges have had to do with kids and modeling, not guns. Typically we use cartoon characters. so far Stewie, Bart and calvin (i think thats who it was) have been used.

examples

I can try to make one, but I dont have photoshop so I am limited in my abilities.

haha thanks Rudy, glad you liked it. sorry if the gun thing makes it an issue, I didnt realize there was already a badge thing John, I was just messin around. I got photoshop though, so unless someone else does or would want to do it, let me know some ideas and I could try and throw somethin together. Only what? a week left till the first? haha im itchin to start

Feel free to work on another badge. I just wanted to keep a them going with them.

something like that, I was investigating my kit tonight and had to stop because I wanted to start cutting and glueing. So instead I worked on a previous project that has yet to be finished. Now to get some camo on it.

i vote for south park this time.  all of our previous badges involved bad-ar$es, so I think its natural that the boys of SP get the next slot.  any one of them would do.  I'd call for something with cartman or kenny, but since my 'paint' aint up to it, thats the preferance of whoever does do the badge.  any takers?

I still prefer Chris' "young gun". And I've made a desicion on my entry. It'll be a pair of 1/72 scale trainers (the Trojan and the Chipmunk). I'm not sure what company, but once they arrive in the mail, I'll let you know.
