The "Kangaroo" challenge (FD or SoBu)

The Ram Kangaroo, a Canadian Ram tank that had its turret removed and replaced with seats for infantry.[/i

The "Kangaroo" concept had been tested by the Canadian Army, as a field modification of medium, light, and SPG's. These modified vehicles had become the first "modern" APC's, and had guided the development of other APCs. Your job in this challenge is to take a vehicle (heavy, medium, light, ect.) and turn it into an APC. This vehicle can be either a field modification only or a ordered variant.

Guidelines -
Your vehicle should have seating available for infantry/dismounts
Your vehicle should have been developed from a tank chassis, and not a wheeled chassis
Your vehicle should not have a gun larger than 14.5mm
Your vehicle should enter service between 1940 and 1945 (can be changed)
"The further you are from the sound of guns, the less you understand."
- General Walter Natyncyk, CAF

Project list -

USN Hellcat sheet
Greek F-16's
USAAF B-24 Liberator mega sheet (Europe, Italy/North Africa, and Pacific)

The Before and After Challenge gives me an idea: From War to Peace, which may suit both Shipbucket scale and Fd scale. Warships, bombers and tanks may become yacht, airliners and tractors.
  • Wherever our Party and our army went, the people welcomed us with open arms, and we were able to take advantage of the time of the day, and we can still see the vibrant life and development of all things in front of our eyes. Twenty years later, has this place become our burial place?
    In any case, the strength of the battle was 800,000 to 600,000, and the advantage is mine!

Soldier bucket scale specifically


TIGER MEET is held annually and Nato comes out with some fun schemes

purpose of this challenge is specifically for paint schemes, as such exterior views only, and only 1 airframe; effectively your nations fielding squadron for the event

I've got an idea based on recent conflict. Ukraine, Armenia, Syria. "How cheap You can go", try to create a scrap plane/vessel to be able to combat the enemy.
Many, many ideas in my head :mrgreen:

A cardboard box, some tin can and either a mixture from a certain type of Shrooms or boiled bleach for a certain use and we have a cheap to how it concerns funny gift....... I am not going to much detail on this one due to there is a 0.0001% of getting flagged for what you can do with a certain type of shrooms or boiled bleach.

But it's quite cheap
