This really is one campaign that I've been looking forward to. Will have to make the hard choice as what to settle on. Here's some inspiration.

Have to choose one. After finishing by the deadline, selecting the subject is the most difficult part of any campaign, for me anyway.




... but seriously, they're all really cool. Especially on their beaching trolley. My fear is I'll finally locate that Latecoire 298 seaplane kit just after I start into one of these in earest.

Someday, someday. I want to have an entire shelf of WW2 seaplanes on trolleys completed!

Cheers,
Fred

August 2014 is a ways off but having just scooped up the old Tamiya A6M2-N at the LHS an hour ago I see no reason not to enlist(see above stack of lovely kits, I like your choice of subjects Fred!)
