Ah….karma returns to get me.
I don’t have an issue making a call and I do like the option to add started projects to a campaign as you can add more folks. For a traditional model kit, I feel it’s pretty “easy” to determine that 25% point traditionally used as the cutoff for campaigns. With figures, I am not as confident and since I have been a member on the new and old site I don’t think there has been a figure campaign to provide a point of reference.
If I am being honest, figures has been slow for the last few years with only news/reviews being the only threads posted. I might have joined after it’s glory days but I think the forum functions might have played into that as I have seen a much bigger spike in membership posting projects.
Back on track, since the figure genre itself can have kits that require no assembly whatsoever, that moves the goal posts and what 25% is in my opinion and opens the door to having a different metric for the genre that traditionally model kit have. I think we can find something that works for full figures or busts (a separate future campaign idea I am thinking about either 1/2 way through or after this one) for this community. I have started a separate thread to discuss more and hopefully help future campaign leaders Future campaign requirements
