Hi Ladies , What I 'm going to do is set a post where we can show are progress . There is a place in the Gallery where we can also post pic's . Please keep your progress in the post that is created for it . Kelly keep an eye on me , been doing some strange things of late !
Pam sounds like you are off to a good start already ! I still have to get some ref's for my build ! I all ready have four projects on the go .
It is nice to have another sign up . I did send her a PM . Just waiting to hear back from her . At this time I have no knowledge of what her 5 pick is . Kelly you were in my head again , was planning of sending you guy's a PM on which five kits she has . send them to you and we go from there ................
It's to late to get the other members to vote on this . So it will be us five only . What we could do with this as well is have a post where we but our answer . This way everyone can see . I will not set up this post until I hear from her ( Where are you Emma ! ) It seems more fair this way .

You can't blame a married man for wanting to use every opportunity to actually have some say in what a woman will do
On a side note my 14 year old daughter wants to build a 1/32nd scale Revell Apache and has asked if she can build it within your Campaign? It will be her first kit build, I understand she will not be eligible to enter in the fullest sense but it will encourage her when she hits her first hiccup, if this is possible I will register her at the site.

Well, my vote has to be based on how cool the name sounds.
So Corsair it is. (That or the Hurricane. in the case of a tie.)
I also vote for the Apache. (That was easy!)
Welcome aboard ladies!
(And I vote full status for all, late or not.)

Well at the moment for me it looks like a tie between the Hurricane and the Corsair .... so the question is will Apache girl break the tie and decide my fate?
I also agree that Darren's daughter should be a full member of the build and I too vote for the Apache (it's an awsome looking beast). And it will be good not to be the only novice
I've checked out your winning kits and they're all great choices. I too had a Stuka on my original list ... but when I saw Penny had done so well with her choice of Stuka, I replaced it with the Hurricane.

Hi all ,
As we wait for Darrens daughter to decide on Emma's fate for which kit .
All Ladies are still welcome to join in and be a part of the contest . I don't think it would be very fair turning anyone away since the idea for this was based on bring us together and to let other female modelers know that they are not along and there is a few of us here
.
I still say that this is the best site out there . Here we are treated as part of the gang ! Not like some sites where we are more or less outcast .

Welcome Danielle , love your call sign !
We are all very excited to have you join in . Revells Apache Longbow is a great kit .
So as it stands you got 6 votes for the Apache .
However we do need to vote on which kit for Emma to build for the contest ! Her fate lies in your hands .

Emma I like your taste in planes. I think you should build the corsair because it looks like an interesting build.

Thanks for casting the deciding vote Danielle. The Corsair it is then. Really looking forward to building it. All I need to do now is go buy the kit! Oh, and then source the paints and other bits and bobs I might need. Being a newbie and taking one step at a time I'm going to finish the Airacobra I'm presently working on first so I'm looking at commencing the Corsair build by the start of November. Need to get my camera out in the meantime and practise taking those close-up shots ... so clickity click for now and happy model making girls
