We are organizing a Modelling Contest/Piggy Contest.

The requirement is that the model must be pig related, eg/you can make a tank that looked like a pig, a plane named miss piggy.

And in view of the wolf transgression (They started it), if it has any thing to do with wolf hunting, will be neat too.

The contest starts now, and the deadline for submission is end of May. Pak our head pig will be the judge, and the winner gets a nice prize.......A NASHORN!!!!!!!! (Of course in 1/35)

So, please sign up for the contest. And you can contact me or Stug for sign up or post here. Any one can join this contest, pigs or non-pigs, if you join this contest you will get a pig number and be a good standing member of us.

Oink Freak'n Oink!

P.S. Jim, our honoury pig, the provider of our home, do you think we can get a campaign ribbon for this little campaign?

If for the purpose of wolf hunting, an 88 will be an over kill, if road runner (a bird) can wack coyote with a BB gun, so can we pigs.....

I am oaf-icially throwing my hat into the ring. If it is possible,all my civillians will wear hounds tooth shirts and a leather jacket in honor of the bovines(Still don't understand why they insist on being called wolves........must be embarrassment.....left me shrugging but,I digress). I will also have the puppy from the Tamiya Stug III in there so as to let them feel thier name is taken seriously. As for pigs.....does anyone make a 1/35 figures of Roseanne Barr,Tipper Gore,Monica Lewinski,or Anna Nichole Smith? Oh,well....guess I will have to go the ordinary way and add real pigs!Hope I can get a DC or scanner by the end of this one.Take care and watch for the cow-patties!

I am in.
Who is doing the judging?
If it is Dave (ASS-74) it may be biased as I insult his modelling skills constantly. Nice idea though Dave

Andrew

P.S. If you need contributions for prizes in the future, let me know.

The prize is already settle, I will donoate a long sought after first DML WW II Kit, the beautiful old Nashorn.......oh what am I thinking, I need to keep this baby.....so I will give out the new Nashorn as the prize.

As for what is pig related, be creative, just somehow if this model/dio has a pig scene it will do.

And Oberst, ya of little faith, I am a fair person. Nevertheless, Pak40 will be the judge.....Now stop insulting my modelling skill!!!!

since this was the basically Daves and my idea, i would like to say ther is no limit on anything. if you need 10 tanks to tell your story, then so be it. need 1000 figures good luck finishing on time..heheheheh i see this as our finest hour, and may it only be surpassed by future events. hell think of it this way, use a tamiya kit, if you lose here there is always Tamiy/con this summer...ehhehehehehe good hunting guys. i'm also donating a set of DML figuresof the winners choice for second prize and postage for both the prizes to the winners home. nice of me. but because im cheap, i'm going to put up a good fight!!! so with that said good hunting and good luck stug

Davidus,

Since I have already got the new Nashorn, may I request to have the DML Karl Morser instead?
