Im in, its a perfect excuse to drop everything else, which has stagnated, and build one of 7 or so hasegawa Zero's I recently scored at a local fleamarket. Ive picked the most colorful of them to be my first model of the famed A6M fighter.

Well, winter has passed and the garage is no longer freezing, I've finished Skyrim, and my modelling mojo has returned! I'm in for this, only question is with what? Hunter? Lightning? F-15? Phantom? Leaning towards the Lightning right now...

Ok, I will give this a try (it would be my fourth campaign running at the same time - will see if I am up to the challenge).
My entry would be a 1/72 Fujimi F-14A with a twist: Ferris camouflage of the VF-2 sometimes in the late seventies. This way there will be no question as to "dual role", both for the time frame as well as for the camo (looks like it was a trail to see if it offered any advantage in a dogfight in terms of altitude and attitude deception). I would like to do it storeless, but I am not sure if this is against the rules...

Welcome aboard all
Neil - Lightning sounds good, I was think of doing the Lightning F6 for my entry but that might change depending on my available time.
Nicola - The F-14 would be accepted as long it an early variant as it was a carrier defence fighter only later in life did it start carrying bombs.

Hi All,
I have a consignment build to do of the Nakajima J1N1-Sa, can I include this subject in the campaign ?

It a night fighter so as far as I can tell it qualifies for the campaign.
Not long to go now
