OK, one month extension granted. Models must be finished and in the gallery by 30 November. Let's see what we can do!

Thanks Simon. I can highly recommend the kit and with your skill with rigging I bet the kit would look amazing!

Mike - Glad your better, hope to see yours done!

Thanks for the extension.... I will need it to figure out how to upload a picture into the gallery. I have uploaded it onto my album but can't figure out what to do from there. Any advice?

Also I have luckily salvaged my second gladiator using a coat of future, will upload photo's when I finish the diorama, aiming for the 11th.

James,

Go to the gallery, make sure you're logged in, and click on the "upload photos" link at the top. The gallery is actually its own album, so you'll be uploading photos directly from your computer. Hope that helps, looking forward to seeing your work there!

Progress update:

The resin nose, intakes and top fin are now attached to the Buccaneer so it's time for the bit I like least, sanding and filling. I have managed most of the former and now need to perform the latter

Another problem has manifested itself, the airbrake assembly, which I thought I had right, is not, it's too tight at the innermost hinge so that will need a rebuild.

Ah well, still a bit closer to finishing

Actually, I'm not and next week is exceptionally busy so I am regretfully having to say Sayonara and back out of this campaign. I will persevere and post the finished build when it finally reaches completion.

sorry folks

That's all right Mike. To my shame, I don't think I'm going to make it either. Oh well!

Hopefully the extension gave some others the opportunity to finish.

Just wanted to add a few photos of my intended diorama depicting the Maltese Gladiators. I intend on adding a plaque and a few bushes to finish this off. I salvaged my first Gladiator and depicted the Gladiator currently in the Valletta museum in Malta.

Cheers for the campaign.
