Just wanted to give a heads up to the whole Kitmaker family, that Automodeler has a Group Build in the starting blocks that could involve potential models from other "Non-glossy" genre!
Just a quick overview of the Group Build:
Operational Overview
A German made car, pure and simple. Any type, any era as long as it is considered an automobile. Meaning no motorcycles nor trucks, and no what-ifs.
The Rules and Regs
A model of any German made automobile, but no what-ifs. It has to be considered an automobile though. Any scale, any type, any era, any physical media.
Contest Element
Make a model, take a pic, load up the pic to the appropriate place and voilá you win a very nifty campaign ribbon! As long as a pic of a completed model is loaded up by the end of the campaign you get a ribbon - meaning get'er done!!!
Enlist here!
Welcome Aboard!! Anybody and Everybody is welcome!!

I've cast my lot with this crowd.
I was surprised by the temporary(?) lack of subjects at the local hobby shop, but I'll check back or maybe order something (through them) and get going shortly after Christmas.
Cheers!

Just wanted to add a note to this thread and say that this Group Build encompasses any German made car during any era and in any scale.
This means military cars are also welcome. They don't even need to be painted in glossy paint!!
