We are a small community, so to let the starters get a taste of getting medals, we could have a starter campaign or mission. I suggest we let the most senior member SpiritsEye take charge of it. If he don't mind, he is also decorated before.
Just a suggestion.

I would love to have one but our numbers are too little.

From what i know, in order for campaigns to start, it have to have a minimum number of about 10 or 20 participants.

Anyway, what are your ideas?

Our theme, can be German War Machine. Or just normal invasion of Europe. With all those new stuff from dragon, coming in i think its a good time to start a campaign.
One more thing, your panther tank, the green and brown paint is painted with a Brush right?

Is a campaign something like a group build?

Practise on those cheap models first.

Like the old Tamiya kits ("walker bulldog") or the Academy Pz IV ausf. H.

Both run for about less than 20 bucks.

Oh.. the Tamiya Walker Bulldog. Where can I actually find that one.

Other than Tamiya, Academy & DML. What are some other kits in Singapore that are worth buying? And Cheap

Walker bulldog, you can try Miniature hobby or Tiong bahru plaza. I've seen them carry it.

Seems like MH has most of the stuff there.

Dan, are you a member of MH? I'm a member there, they got 20% discount for all members anytime. Last week, they got this discount sale for quite a few models. However I was away on a camp. Is that discount still on?

To be a member:

Walk up to the counter and tell them you want to be a member. Give them your particulars and there! A MH Member already. (it's free!)
