Hi Frank:
Is there an official thread with the list of finished models ?
For this one I finished my Mosquito FB Mk VI in 1/48 as my first entrie. Unfortunately I wasn´t able to finish my second one (Wellington in 1/72).
Regards.
Carlos

Hi Carlos!
I have exactly the same question, as I participated with my Lancaster in 1/48.
Nobody seems to know anything about this?
There are (were) over 50 participants in this campaign build, all left suspended in mid-air!
Jean-Luc or Rowan, Please give an answer if this can, and how we could resolve this matter.
Cheers!

i built a kit for this too, and i posted some pics up in a "end of campaign" thread. thought this one just fizzled out, but theres at least 4 of us who have finished. how about starting a finished build thread?

That gallery isn´t updated. I can´t see my Mossie there and I posted pics of the finished model in a thread don´t remember when.
Who was the Campaign leader, so we can ask him for the results.

This was my entry for the Bombs Away campaign. Its the Tamiya 1/48 Mitsubishi Betty bomber. The markings are for the Misawa Naval Fighter Group, 2nd Squadron in 1942 at the Rabaul Base.
The plane has taken a bit of a battering since its been finished. It keeps getting hit with hairbrushes as its under a mirror

Hi Chaps:
Please all the people that were enlisted in the Campaign and today have the work finished, post some pics here, so we will be able to make the final list of the participants who achieved the goal.
What do you think of a limit in time to post the pics ? If not this will extend in time and will have no end.

Hi Carlos,
Having taken over the abandoned campaign from the original campaign leader, (in hopes that he would eventually return) I must apologize for not being as hands on as I would have liked. I do not have the ability to create a ribbon for all of you that did finish the campaign... Possibly if someone has the know how and the time, they might feel inclined to design and award the ribbons.
thanks,
Frank

Hi Frank:
I don´t know who disigned the ribbons for the lasts Campaigns, maybe more than one member. It would be great if someone could help with this.
Regards.

Hi all:
I told my daughter and as she is a graphic disegner, she said she can help with this matter. So if somebody tells me the sizes in pixels that must have the ribbon, I will present a couple to see if you like them.
Regards.
