Hi guys, I'm working on a new feature that I will think you will like... You will be able to create "scale modeling projects" in your profile. A scale modeling project consists of 1 or more kits (example: Revell Tornado in scale 1/32 + Eduard PE + Decals from Hahen + PE from Eduard + Figurines from ...). The project can be either be still in your mind, on your workbench or already completed. When creating a Photoalbum you will be able to attach it to a specific project. When you have an "in progress forum thread" on any of the forums you can link to it. When the finished model was published on an online magazine you will be able to link it to the projects....Each project will have a nice page with the links to the kits you used kit, a small description about the project. Links to "forums", links to photoalbums and links to completed models and last but not least a comment section. Hope you like this idea, feedback welcome 🙂

whenever somebody has a project containing a specific product, the product page will contain a link to the project.

I'm working hard on this new feature. Every project will have a status: A project lifecycle looks goes from "Idea" to "On the bench" to "Completed". Next to these 3 states, I will also add 2 exception states: "On Hold" and "Stopped". Did I miss something? 🙂

Maybe "Abandoned " 😉 I think it is OK, it is a very good idea. The Deutsch to English is good idea also 🙂

I'd add one more status "Smashed against the wall", if something goes terribly wrong!! 🙂

@Klaus lol 🙂 @Admin: sounds great, will you show the projects on the product pages as well? if yes, also on the aftermarket pages? Because now the aftermarket products do not show any gallery articles, or is that a bug?

Hi Luc, you are right about the aftermarket pages, this is not a bug but it does annoy me that they don't show up. 🙂 The new project pages will show up on all the kits that were used (including decals, PE, resin sets). I can't guarantee yet, but I think that based on the project info I'll be able to complete the gallery articles as well... I'll try 🙂

Scm has so much evolved since 2011. Not only technical, especially on the human side. Many friendships have been developed. Many feelings have exchanged. This is a strong and cool community. Modellers United! 🙂
