Hooray! I'm in. 1/35th FV432. From as much unbuilt plastic as I can and to as acurrate as I can! COOL!

OK, Steve. Here is a progress shot... :-) :-) :-)

And mine!

Ok I want in on the campaign. For my build…I’d like to do a 1/35th Stryker. The only problem I’m having is that I’m in the need of measurements and dimensions. Now from time to time I often see members here post a progress pic that will have some drawing of a vehicle their doing, so I was hoping someone here can help me out with some or even point me in the right direction to some. Thanks and looking forward to seeing some great looking scratch builds.

In I'm making a Grizzly type recovery vehicle based on the Abrams...... it'll be close to a Grizzly with a few of my own improvements

Wow, I'm the first to enlist for A.C.U.T.R.. Not sure what the build will be, but it will be fun!

I'll be building the Cranemobile of the U.S. Navy Seabees (USNCB). 1/24 scale.
I'll have parts and progress pictures as soon as I actually start. I need to take a few more elevation shots of it to make drawings. This is going to be exciting.

Well, I think I finally have enough information to make a start on 'Project Perentie', however most of this year will be spent accumulating materials, since I am a few dollars shy of broke most weeks.

So to make sure I am capable of finishing something, I will be working on a sci-fi troop transport that I have been palnning for a while.
Heres a quick and dirty 3D render I did while trying to design it.

Since we now have an official campaign, we need a ribbon surely?

How about something like this? It's meant show calipers and knife on a background of blood. (couldn't figure out how to show sweat and tears ).

I'd like to try my hand at this, but it will be my very first.. so please be patient with my progress.

Basically, I'll be working on a 2 1/2 ton truck. I'll either build it into a field workshop or "kitchen". If anyone knows where I can get photos of the interior of either of these options, please tell me where.

Another vehicle which one of the members here built before is an "elongated" M113 recovery vehicle type thing. The rear half of it looks like the back of a truck with side panels that open to the side. I'll look for a pic of it. Anyway, I just like anything that has to do with the M113, so I just have to try this.

Will post pics as soon as I have something tangible.

The first item from 'Project Perentie': The Seat! Needs tidying up but the basic size and shape are right.

Well I'm really looking forward to this =)
I'm off to start some research...

Thanks, Julius. I didn't realise I had to login to each of these "sub-sites".

I will be building four of these trucks. The Iron Horse.

I enlisted this morning - and decided to get off my duff and do a long-time personal project.

I'm going to do a 1:35th scale M56 Scorpion Self-Propelled Anti-Tank Gun (SPAT).

This looks like a very interesting project Jim. I will be watching your progress on this one.

Hisham- the MTVF Fitter is what you seek, Ti built one, and Canada is developing it. Here's the DEW line drawing: http://www.dewengineering.com/military/variant-mtvf.html Good luck!

I just enlisted and will replicate the Centurion ARV at CFB Edmonton into 1/35. I realize that BARV is building the same, but hey, it's got my cap badge painted on it!

Yep. That's the one. Thanks a lot, Mike. That's a lot of help.

Mike --not doing Cent ARV ---it's already started in 1/25---will be doing sommat new ----btw ---more pics please ----of theMTV Fitter ---just fill my e-m box :-) :-) :-)
Tally so far 12 --plus me
Come on guys where are you --we had 26 on original post --less 1 ....Caspir is away for a time
Looks like a nice mix so far ..will post to other sites that we are running

Hisham, no problem- I look forward to seeing your build.
Steve- I'm sorry but I only got that through Googling. Images on www.dnd.ca may have more pictures but the vehicle is only in development right now! I will admit to being a little relieved that I won't be building the same ARV as you... my skills are also just in development!

Where have you all gone ------It gets lonely when there's no-body around .....I quess that the challenge to try something new is daunting ....but there again it runs all year ---so hop on any time ..as long as you sign -up and show a pic now and then --thats ok with me
Now back to my "Darth -room"and get the razor saw out (light-sabre in for repair) :-) .......good luck ""cutting and shutting""
