I saw a new survey, regarding the aircraft of the month. I have a question:
Please, where are the models exposed so that I can see them?
Is there a special place or I have to see them in the gallery of each modeler?

Hi Gaucho,
Use the link below and it should take you to the forum thread that shows all the nominees for the model of this month

https://armorama.kitmaker.net/forums/43927&page=1

If this does not work right go to the aircraft forum and find the link around page two or three for "New Feature - Aircraft Model of the Month"

Hope that helps and good modeling,
Wayne

Thanks Wayne for doing the honours!

I hasten to say - this is early days for Model of the Month - there are still a LOT of wrinkles to iron out in the system, but I hope we can develop this into a popular and easy way to showcase the great aircraft models that appear on Armorama.

All the best

My pleasure Rowan
I have a suggestion for at least one way to possibly make things a little more organized.
Set up a gallery that is only for the current models of the month nominees. It would most likely just be accessible by armorama staff so it wouldn't have the chance to get really cluttered up.
Then somewhere on the home page for aircraft or someplace easily found, put a link to the gallery. That would make quick and easy viewing for anyone that wants to check out the nominees. If possible maybe put the link in the same little box where you have the list of nominees and select for your vote.
Then once the winner is decided for that month, empty the gallery and start over for the next month.

Just an idea anyway and good modeling,
Wayne

I totally agree. In a special area, like UOM, would be easier. This way anyone that wants compete could enroll his model there.
In addition, as the idea is expanding, the other groups of builders, armor/afv, dioramas, figures, warships, could make the same thing, in their respective page.
