As originally posted on Armourama but I'd like it to cover all genre

Hi All

I had an idea for a campaign that I thought might be interesting.

We have lots of campaigns about well known and famous events but how about something that focuses on things that are much closer to us if not necessarily world famous.

The theme of the campaign would be to model a subject to which your home town has a direct connection to.

It might be something that was based in your town, passed though your town, was made in your town, a person who lived in your town or even something named after your town. HMAS Sydney anyone ?

For example where I live there were PBY Catalinas based here during WW2, also the 503 PIR staged through here , there are old coastal gun emplacements and a whole heap of other things.

The idea would be to model one of these subjects, show/prove the connection and most importantly pass on the story behind it.

Not only do we get some cool models but we learn a few of the lesser known stories of history.

I am thinking it would start in the new year and run for 6 months to June 2012.
