Not long to go now and I have just finished my P-51 for that campaign. So now I only have a corsair (painting), a P-47 (just started for the Pacific Thunder campaign) and dare I say it a target...I mean King Tiger on my work bench which for me is pretty light on so cant wait to get the sprues out on my Avenger!

Looking at the roll call I have been missed. Will be building the He 115 from Matchbox, not too sure which scheme as of yet. So put me on the roll call.

Trevor, you have my humble apologies sir. You have been added to my Roll Call file and great choice with the He 115 also. I built this kit for the Seaplanes Campaign recently and apart from a complete lack of interior detail it went together really well and is a great looking aircraft.
Cheers, D

I'm thinking at the moment of a Mosquito XVIII (with the lovely Molins gun), using the Tamiya 1/72 FBVI kit and Pavla conversion kit. Only problem is I can't find any aftermarket decals for it.
I do have backup plans if I can't find any. Might still do a B6N as well anyway.
thanks
Mike

Well folks it's time for one final BUMP before we get serious here. I have updated the Roll Call and will start a new official Anti Shipping campaign thread tomorrow (October 30 Down Under time).
@ Trevor, just a reminder of Rule #2 for this campaign, weapons must be VISIBLE, i.e. external stores or weapons bays open. We wanna see those bad boys. If I recall the He 115 kit had no weapons load so you might need to chase down some extra goodies.
Cheers, D
