waynec

i'm in with something, probably an SSM

well once again i am over committing but since you opened it up a bit and allowing crossovers, put me down for the 1/35 TRUMPETER K-5 RR GUN . will be picking up the OTS ATOMIC CANNON so that may be a possibly too.

Roster updated.

Let me know if I've let anyone or anything out, or got anything wrong.

Building a kit from your stash is like cutting a head off a Hydra, two more take it's place.

I hope to have some bench space by then, having never done any artilary models it might be a good time to start.

No idea what yet, might go with some of our local guys making resin pieces of uor locally made Denel G-5 cannon and G-6 self propelled unit.

For interest sake google the G-5 and see how close Saddam was to using them in the first gluf war.

I still hope to join, but very likely in the following year.

Found this in the stash, so put me down for an 81mm mortar and crew, Model Victoria 1/35.

regards,

Jack

That's thinking OTB Rob, I like it, I like it a lot.

I placed a bid on that 24 pdr and just ordered the Trebuchet. I always like coming up with something a little different.

I'm really happy to have you onboard.

It would be great to have you onboard Rob. Anything ancient to modern will work.

Well, I wanted WWI artillery, but, my LHS had nothing but ONE single little 1/72 german gun. Not very exciting. So, I spied something 'completely random' and different for me. So, I'm in with this kit:

Steve: I might jump in this, kinda depends on how the GBs I'm working on now shape up. I looked over the instructions last night, seems pretty straight forward kit if building for a Korean War weapon- the guys here told me some modifications would have to be made for a Second World War field piece.

Steve-  That's an awesome cannon!  Are those basically what pirates would steal?

Found this Leopold today at a near by shop.  Only $15!  Works for me!
