Hi Pam...... Glad to have you with us.

Hey all.
Got to thinking and what will our campaign ribbon be?? Anyone thought about this yet? or am I the only one with too much spare time

Hi Kelly , That is a very good question ! Does seem that we should have for one
completing our kit on time . Yes the contest does follow campaign rules . Any takes on how to do this would be very helpful .

Come on guys , place your votes !

Hello Ladies...This Campaign is a Very Cool Idea. My choices are;
Penny - F4U-1D
Kelly - Hubble
Teri - Fokker D VII
Wendy - Thunderbolt
Pam - BF109F-2
Good Luck with your Builds ! milvehfan

Hello Pam
seams you've just joined I'd better update my choices for you I think I'll go with the
5. Polikarpov I-16 Type 24 Eduard 1/48
good luck every one.

Hi Shaun and others that have voted so far.
My tally so far is:

La-7 with 2 votes
I-16 Type 24 with 2 votes
Bf 109F-2 with 1 vote

I'm still confused. Do the ladies get to vote for the other ladies or not?

Also, I'm having a hard time holing off on building one of these models as Oct. 1 seems a long way off! I'm passing the time building my first jet, a Hasegawa F-14 in 1/72. It is hard and so many parts that just don't fit exactly! At least it is giving me the opportunity to learn to re-scribe but the rivets are another problem.

Pam

Pam.
From the way I understood it Yes we get to vote for the other ladies too. I keep wishing I had not included the Hubble in this as I really want to see how that goes together never did a paper model before Oh well Time passe's quickly when your having fun.. Later, Kelly

Ok, so I am going to post my choices, hope I didn't miss anyone signed up yet.

Penny-A-1H Skyraider US Navy. I was in the Navy and think this is a cool subject. Did you see the move "Rescue Dawn"? He flies one of these before he is shot down.

Kelly-Flakpanzer Kugelblitz. I really like raisin kugel!

Terri-Sopwith Camel, Eduards. Hang on Snoopy.

Wendy- French Napoleonic caricature. I really like his face looks like a lot to work with.

Pam

Hi Gals, just clear some things up here . We can pick which model to build for each other for the contest . However , we can not vote for each other ( rule number 3 ) . Only the guys will be able to do this . I 'm sorry about the time frame , but I felt that it would have only be fair to give us enough time to enter and with this being summer most people are away . I'm kicking myself as well for it . I would like to start already as well . Be patient young grass hoppers !

So far this is what I have for votes .
Fokker D.VII , 2 votes
Sopwith 1 1/2 , one vote
F2B , 0 votes
M-S type N , 4 votes
Camel , 2 votes
looks like I will be doing the M-S type N

Here is one ideal for a ribbon for this campaign. Any alterations or changes or other ideas are appricated. just let Terri know or post them.
Thanks,
Kelly

Edit= just so you all know she is a Fifinella given to the wasp by Walt Disney .... Wiki it for a better explaination

That's a very cool idea for a ribbon, Kelly...one thing to remember, is that the ribbon will have to be re-sized to a maximum of 50 x 50 pixels, with a 1000kb max size to be uploaded and used on the campaign page for awarding...sometimes detailed images turn into a glob of colors when re-sizing (from my own past failures! )...

Fantastic Kelly ! It's awesome ! I thank -you for your aid in this Campaign you play a big part of it , Thanks .

Well Ladies what do you think ? Kelly is really on to something here . Far better then what I would have turned up . Cartoon characters have played a huge roll in aviation through out the years , which it ties in with this Campaign nicely .

Great idea! I wikied it and dumb me had no idea women flew in WWII. Guess 'cause I was in the Navy! Pam

Here it is in 46x50 so it meets the criteria ..... Pam Women flew in combat for the Russians even had a few aces. Thanks Mark for letting me know the details I knew that some form of limits existed.
Later,
Kelly

Germany also had at least one female pilot. She was a test pilot.

They ( Military channel ) done a small piece on her when they were talking about Germany's proto-type aircraft.

Beauty!
I think it's perfect, Kelly...
Cheers,
~Gunny

I'm with Gunny ! It's prefect Kelly !

Hi Girls
Love the choice for your ribbon.

Found this one with US women delivering a B-17.
I am also practicing inserting a picture in the forum.
