What is it? September Competition

Post by **Lee** » Wed Sep 04, 2013 11:23 pm

What is it?

The winner is the person that guesses what is in the photo and what military vehicle/aircraft/ship it belongs to...

RULES - PLEASE READ....

We will want the make, model and version of the military vehicle/aircraft/ship the pic belongs to, that is it. All you have to do is post what you think it is and we will look through them all at the end. Please don't over do it, just put what your guess is, nothing more. No explanation or reasoning, just what you think it is. You'll only be helping some one else

The competition will run for two weeks ending at 8pm GMT 19th September 2013 and in the case of more than one person getting it right we will use a random number generator to decide the winner. If no one gets it right we will pick the nearest guess and if no one is near at all, then the prize will roll-over on to the next 'What is it?' competition. We will have a lot of these competitions in the future so, fear not if you don't win this time , this will be a regular thing

You can have as many guesses as you like, each one must be in a different post though - NO SPAMMING & MODs are not allowed to enter....

The prize this time will be.....

The new tool Airfix 1/72 Supermarine Spitfire Mk. IXc

These competitions are sponsored by myself & Paul with the prizes being provided from our own stashes.....

Enjoy and let the guessing commence
