Do the Boxart?

[moon puppy]

Saul bragging about the new Trumpeter 05530 1/35 German Sd.Kfz.6 Halbkettenzugmaschine Pionierausfuhrung and it's boxart got me thinking. Why not a campaign to recreate the box art of your kit?

This would probably fare better for the armor stuff.

Whatcha think?

That would be a cool idea!!

Interesting idea MP, unless it's an Afv club kit then there's just a white background

I guess you wouldn't have to do the exact box are for your kit, If there's a AFV kit of a subject Dragon does, use it instead.

You know,there is a really bad joke somewhere in this. :hmmm ...has something to do with
AFV club vehicles in the snow....[but I wouldn't make that joke]. :nothingtoad

 

[Bagge]

I think it is a very good idea MP, i would sign up for this

MOONIE,

Yeah. A Cool Idea indeed. It would make ya think about th Kit you would use. Now ... There are some Dragon Kits that have Vehicles in th Background that are not kitted yet ... But I guess that all comes down to th Kit that you choose to Model ?

Talkin about White Backgrounds .. Some of th Older Tamiya Kits have a White background ...

This could get real creative .... What if you had a White Box kit , but recreated the Lettering & such & got it to sit , somehow in th Air against a White Background - 3 dimensional Lettering allover with th Model ... It could happen !

It is a real good Idea and I would say there are also tons of possibilities for the aircraft guys too

just some old box arts - remember those old Revell's

or the very old stuff

Hase also has done some real nice ones

and some more examples of others

.... sorry, couldn't resist

That's the idea Martin! Would really love to see the drogue parachute deployed .

What comes in mind, armor related,are the GREAT box-arts done by
Ron Volstad.

Just love his stuff!
And IF I got to do it....I would try to do his boxart as a dio.
But then again,have many,many,many ideas I like to do as well.

@Erik;your idea WOULD be a great challenge! :woohoo:

Greetings,Ron.
