                        Thanks!, I still don't know what I'll build yet though. I saw a nice M-8 Greyhound I might get.

                        Hey Mr.Wulf, since this is my first GB, I'm having difficulties getting the badge onto my signature.

                        What am I doing wrong?

                        Will

                        Hi Will,

                        Sign - Welcome [#welcome]

                        To get the badge in your signature, go to your profile and place the code for the picture into the signature as you would a photo.  I usually post from ripway.com.   It is a free site.

                        I look forward to seeing your kits in the future.

                        Hi everyone

                        I know i'm probably breaking an unwritten forum rule here or something , but can I pull out of the build? Oops [oops] I can't get my hands on either of the kits I wanted, when I joined I thought I could.

                        Sorry

                        Will

                        Will,

                        I hope you find something before we start.

                        All,

                        I've decided to add an Airfix Grant/Lee with a VAC-U-CAST CDL conversion to my group build list.  Why not right?  So I'll build a newly tooled Mirage Lee and a brutally tooled Airfix Grant with resin add-on kit to make it look modern.

                        Grant

                        Chris: Looks like my real vacation is going to conflict with a large portion of the Vacation GB (oh the irony!). I will still attempt to do a build but it will have to be a quick one.

                        Dave NP the whole premise is to see what you can do with your model in a 2 week timespan, just jump in when you can if you have to start your "2 weeks" a little late so be it Big Smile [:D] it's all good TTFN

                        Looking forward to it Chris. Put me down for a Jagdpanzer IV L/70 from DML. I probably won't get around to doing the jeeps given my other commitments so please take those off the list while you are at it. TTFN (loved the tigger bump!!!)

                        I'd like to have a go at this. I'd appreciate it if you could put me down for the mediocre Matchbox StuG IV. I'll order some AM tracks to go with it.

                        Cheers,

                        Well, if you really want one, some are still "out there", you know.

                        It was an Ausf L, IIRC.

                        Many of then have been re-boxed by Revell Ag and can be found in their kits that are combined with infantry figures.

                        Wow, and I usually catch spelling errors.

                        Nice job Bruce.

                        Enjoy the matchbox kit.  The ones I've built finished up pretty well.

                        A small parcel arrived from Texas today. I had ordered Czech Master's Kits PzKw IV tracks (MV049), and an Extratech set of PE (EXV 72008) for the StuG, most of which is schuertzen. If I'd been on the ball, I wouldn't have ordered the PE, but I was browsing during a weak moment. I'm all set for the weekend, now!

                        The M3 Lee by Mirage is still going to get built, but the Airfix Lee with the conversion on top has been nixed.  It looks horrible for two weeks...even with the lack of size.

                        I'm thinking of building a Hasegawa something as an extra.  I'll let you know Saturday morning.

                        Okay,

                        I'll be leaving for vacation in Canada tomorrow early, so here is a photo of the kits that I'll be attempting.

                        The M3 takes priority if I get late with the build.



                        If my vendor can get it to me, the IV F2 will have a turned barrel.

                        I think I can do this. I'll be doing a Dragon model or two. I'll let you know what I plan to build.

                        Looks like fun Grant, I'll be looking forward to your M3 build.

                        Duke:  What took you so long to join in?

                        I'm looking forward to starting on my build for this and hope that I can get it mostly done before I leave for my real holidays in a week! Big Smile [:D]

                        You'll see some progress in 7 days.  I'm not sure the internet has made it to where I'm going, and I'm not too wireless yet.

                        Good luck guys.

                        Sorry man! I lost the link to this and then had computer troubles! Finally, I can get into this. I'll be building an Italeri 1/72 scale M-8 Greyhound and a Dragon 1/72 scale Bergetiger I (Porsche). I'll be starting Sunday because I'll be in San Diego all day on Saturday at the San Diego IPMS club's contest.

                        Oh, and if you want to see my latest progress on my German Armor for the Braille Scale German Armor Group Build, I have pics of my two newest kits posted. Check them out!
