I won't finish my 737 on time. No excuse, just call me Ben Procrastinator. She's not a hanger queen yet, though, she will wait patiently for a rainy day.

The builds in this campaign certainly are lovely with subject material so widely varied.

Yalım, as far as I know there are no Finnish decals for the C200. I didn't even know Finland used Italian aircraft.

Oh bugger...That is because it is the G50 they used...my fault sorry. I am not very good with Italian aircraft. They looked the same to me...ignorence is my bliss as it seems...

I resorted to the old hairy stick to get the green camouflage on. I also am not likely to finish before midnight

The "Hairy Stick' Campaign had 10 interested but it was posted in the wrong area so needs to be re-submitted!

You're right. The Fiat G.50 & Macchi C,200 are very similar. You might be able to convert the C.200 into a G.50.

I took all the masks off and clear coated for decals only to find that even with liquid decal film the decals disintegrated 
I guess 60 years is too long for decals. 
So not having anything to replace them with I decided to just push on, all that is left is to remove the window masks and paint the guns and exhausts. but right now I have to sleep.

Gotta love a Vulcan!
Well I have to call this done, I don't have any decals although I do have some on the way I am not sure if they will work.
I am happy with the way it turned out.
Great campaign everyone!
Cheers Rob.

I wonder whether 1/72 fighter decals would work?
Meanwhile, a day late and a dollar short, my Vulcan is done. Sharp-eyed viewers may note that the RNZAF claimed this Vulcan during a goodwill visit in 1973.
It could use some touching up, but the build is over.

To one and all:
Great Campaign ! Unfortunately, my F-18D ATARS bird is in the decal shop at present. But this is strictly due to the fact I model at the rate of a speeding Glacier !
But regardless, it has been great to see the 1/144 interest and products that were produced here. 'Till next time....

In our leader's absence I've handed out awards to the finishers. Rob, Richard and I finished a day late, so I haven't given us our awards and won't unless our campaign leader says to, or popular acclaim decides that being only one day late isn't a problem.

I don't really think a day late will be a big problem; now a week late, that's another story!

Forgive him. He is young, and his attentions may well have been redirected. He will be back, one day.

Our campaign leader also looks after the Kitmaker Facebook site!
Maybe we should post our campaigner efforts on Face book and ignor Aeroscale?

While we are on the subject of campaign leaders not holding up their end! ,
What is going on with the sign up's,many many sign up but few complete!, but in the smaller interest campaigns we have a higher percentage of completions yet we need ten to get approved?
Michael you feed back would be appreciated.

Since the campaign leader has totally forgotten about his campaign I don't see that happening.
I count four people that don't have a problem with awarding a ribbon.....?
