Well that's your excuse to go out and get one! What kind of modeller do you think you are anyway?

By my count we have 6 interested people. You'd make 7...

Hi
I have just placed an order for a CMR DC-2!

People with great taste who have shown a interest:-
Tinbanger
Jessie_c
JClapp
Vanize
Stugiiif
Mcleod
amegun
Wizard179
Nykroft
Warreni

That makes 10!

If its any interest, I have some surplus kits

US$8 (eight dollars) each including postage inside the US, US$12 outside the US.

here's another -

still in shrink wrap, eight bucks.

I've just read the entire thread and by my count (and similar to Jessie's) there are only 7 people that have said they will be interested in joining the campaign. Out of your list the following have commented in the thread but have not said they are interested in participating yet.

Stugiiif
amegan
Warreni

Keep getting that interest as your nearly there

here's a cool decal to go with a 1:144 DC-6



Flying Colors makes this nice United set

Hi Stugiiif
Will you enlist if we have a campaign?

Unless, this is opened to the whole of Douglas Aircraft I most likely will not participate. Transports are not my thing. Sorry.

It's pretty difficult to call something which can do this a mere transport

Cool photo jessica!

Merry Christmas to all!

I've been watching this one from the sidelines. You might help your case by having an admin add "campaign proposal" to the thread name. That MIGHT help.
I myself have an old Monogram C-47 Spooky gunship kit in "Heritage" 1/90 scale that I got as a gift over 20 years ago. Admittedly though, it's got a base coat of silver on the parts (unassembled), and the landing gear has been chopped up in the start of an attempt at modeling the gear up, maybe 15 years ago, so I don't know if that would qualify as under 10% or whatever your campaign proposal requires.
I discussed this kit earlier in the Hangar Queen 2 campaign, but I was in too many campaigns last year and never go to it. I've changed my ways for 2013! You can officially count me as interested.
What is the proposed campaign length? When were you hoping to begin? I think I read everything in these three pages, but I didn't see that info.
thanks,
Sean H.

Sean Ive done that and it will be the same as with other campaigns six month build time (the only one that is running longer is the Diorama campaign as it is an operation not a campaign like the Hanger Queen ones have been) and start date you will be looking mid year onwards as we have campaigns starting every month up to July at the moment

Sam, Thank you kindly!

Hi Sam
Just a few thoughts:-
As of today we seem to have 8 interested in the Douglas Campaign.
I had thought of a start date of July-Dec 2013 .
Enlistments build as Campaigns progresses.
The Porco Rosso Campaign (I'm enlisted in) started with a Enlist list of 8 people(now 10).
Historicus-Forma has 8 Campaigns running with 9-20 enlisted.
My point would be that Campaigns with a smaller field of interest in them should be allowed to run, not everyone builds WWI / WWII Aircraft.

Hi Richard

We already have a campaign set to start in July so yours would be a start date of August

As we have discussed many times before the interest shown needs to be 10 before we set up the enlist page after 10 people show interest if only 8 enlist when live that is fine as there were originally 10 people showing as interested originally. The live enlist page and enlistees is separate from people showing interest in the campaign.

The Porco Rosso campaign had 10 people say they were interested in the campaign before we set up the enlist page see the Porco Rosso thread where you asked about the enlist button being set up before having 10 interested.

Also I have noticed on the Porco Rosso campaign that there has been no activity since September only 5 replies in the thread and it ends Feb and as far as I can see from that thread no one appears to have started the campaign as no in progress builds are showing in it and no finished items in the gallery.

Historic Forma is a separate forum to this one that has a much lower membership and participation than we do you only have to look at the posts of their forum to see this so it is not fair to compare the two sites in this way. To be fair it is not ideal to compare any of the sites/ forums against each other as they are all different and individual.



I do think your campaign proposal is a good idea but as you have said it might not be to everyone's taste as it is a closed subject. I know the more popular WW1, WW2 and modern jets have had campaigns run for themselves such as P-51, Tomcat, Phantom etc with lots of interest. Some other campaigns that may have had issues ended up being open to the whole of the manufactures aircraft range rather than just a set period such as the Mig campaign, Sidney Camm Campaign, BAE Campaign etc.

Also I have gone through all the finished campaigns back to 2003 and very few of the campaigns are set to specific aircraft/ time era nearly all have just been an open theme such as fighters, bombers, transport/support aircraft and the majority have done ww2/ ww1 entries out of their own preference.

Well,
You can add me to the interested parties, I have a Monagram C-47 that needs to be put together. And heck I'm only enlisted in 25 campaigns so far.

Cheers Rob.

There's eight. Hi Rob.

If we arent starting til August at the earliest, I guess there is plenty of time to keep beating the drum.

Hi Sam
Thank you for your prompt reply.
Late 2013/early 2014 would work.
I will review scope of Campaign and post here.
Thank you,

Hi Jonathan!
Drum tuned up and ready!

Hey Jonathan, I'll see your Kar Air and raise you a Carvair.

Drum thumped.

Jessica nice review build you did there!

Hi All
After contacting my Mentor about this campaign i have decided to allow a McDonald Douglas Prop into this campaign.
