Technically there is still a day left as the campaign will automatically close at 23:59:00 on the 31st December.

I found a couple of 1/700 Mitsubishi-Sikorsky HSS-2Bs in my stash last week and decided to put them together. Do they qualify for this campain?
Both of these pics are in the campaign gallery.
I found the decal sheet but it was old, decrepit, and ugly so I couldn't use it.

Airfix Bo105C 1/72 by

As always with old Airfix stuff, the Decals were an issue. Dousing them with Future seems to have mostly solved the issue.
Just waiting on the Future to dry so I can shoot the dull cote and she's done.

I am all done, there isn't anything else I can do to them since the decals are discolored. The clear portions of the decals are yellow and the red Japanese ciricles are brown.

This is the Hasegawa 1/48 Seaking with SB decals. This represents an SH-3D from HS-4, the Black Knights. This particular aircraft participated in the recovery of five Apollo spacecraft. Those missions are represented by the five capsules painted by the nose.

Nice progress, Jonathan. Looking forward to see it fully finished.
I have finished my Hind D in Sandinista markings. Nice change from all those red stars. I made a few mistakes around the cockpit, but I am in general very satisfied with the look.
It is a serious weapons load these Hinds carried in addtion to a squad of assault troops.
Comments welcome. 
It would be nice to see them in that condition still. It's been a while since I've seen them in the air.

Well it would seem the gallery still has some kinks to iron out so when that is resolved ribbons will be awarded

Just to let you know I don't appear to have been awarded the ribbon (and I'm also seeing the Gallery still down).
