Operational Overview
This mission has been started in order to lift the "dreaded threat" of of painting figures.
Lots of people like figures with their vehicles and/or dioramas, but feel reluctant to paint them. This way it might be easier in the future to deal with this aspect of modelling.
You are free to combine this campaign with others, because the main effort are the figures, not the vehicles or dioramas. Save those for the other campaigns, which, eventually, will benefit from your efforts here!

The Rules and Regs
The rules;
1) Scale is 1/35 or 1/48,
2) you can use any paint you feel comfortable with,
3) figures may have been built, but need to be (re)painted from the start,
4) Vehicles and diorama's are welcome, built or not, but the main effort are the accompanying figures,
5) you show your progress in image and word, so others can see what you did, how you did it, so they can learn from it. This is the main goal!
6) you can enter with as many figures as you like, but a ribbon will be awarded to those who complete at least 2 figures.
7) Timeframe will be from 01-01-2010 to 01-07-2010. This way you can combine it with other running campaigns.
8) there is no level of skill required. Anyone can join in.

Contest Element
You can enter with as many figures as you like, but in order to receive your award you must complete at least 2 complete figures. Half figures do count as half.....
