(Stupid question time)

So who's interested? I got 2 candidates on the bench - Left and Right as the Queen of Thorns might call them.

Apologies if this is already in hand, I did a quick check and couldn't see a thread.

I'm firmly of the opinion that the Hangar Queen thread should be run every year. You see so many interesting models being finished

Want to lead this year's campaign, Neil?

Will join another HQ campaign no doubt. Any thoughts on start and duration?

This campaign fits very well into a long term campaign sort of thing (HQIII example), since it gives the chance to put forward stalled projects between ongoing ones... at least to me I dare saying

Cheers

Pedro,

As far as a start date goes, I'm trying to stick to the rule that whoever submits a valid campaign first gets the next start date. So far that would be March 2015. There are a three or four proposals floating around out there right now trying to gather interest, so we'll just have to see who gets enough people and submits first.

Well, count me in, I've got plenty of queens to work on (see my sig). But I was expecting Jan 1, 2014 to Dec 31, 2014. As it was last time, I finished my queen at 11:45 PM PST on the 31st.

While we wait for the official Hangar Queen IV to begin, there's nothing preventing us from staging our very own unofficial Hangar Queen III 1/2 right here in this very thread. It'll help keep the interest high and attract builders

Yeah, that's not a problem as long as I'm not stepping on anyone else's toes.

Traditionally Hangar Queen runs 01-Jan to 31-Dec, and people dip in and out of it as they see fit with their unfinished builds.

Neil,

You're quite right. I've checked with my predecessor and he confirmed that Hangar Queen campaigns are an exception to the one-a-month rule. Do you want me to set it up with you as leader? I'll just copy last year's rules (if I can find 'em).

I'm IN! First person who's handle doesn't begin with J!
20 days to decide. Hmm, Mustang, Corsair II, Phantom, PBJ, F-16, M-41 (oops that's a tank), Thud, Warhawk, Thunderjet.. Yea plenty to choose from, but the A-7D is closest to the paint shop.

I'm in with a mig21f from the lottery. She's been switched over to GDR livery after a total farce trying to get alclad on.

Enlisted! Got 3 or 4 kits in the hangar, so February 1st I'll pick whichever sounds best, though I may go for a multi engine quarter scale
