Nimrod MR2 Prints (Merged)
A former Nimrod mate, currently serving in Germany, has started a website to auction a Nimrod MR2 oil painting and limited edition prints to time with the demise of the Nimrod MR2. All proceeds go to Help for Heros. Its well worth a look.
MODs I know its shameless advertising but hopefully you will allow this thread to stay.

You are now able to donate your money via the website which reserves your print. Previous work of artist available to give you an idea of how the Nimrod print will look. Hope to have artists initial sketches available on the website for viewing soon.
All details are available on the website, 150 interested so far!
For those who have paid already, thank you for keeping the faith. 'Power to the Hunter.'

That's impressive, 40 sold already! Don't forget that only the first 260 are signed and that a number of those 260 (Sqn Numbers and aircraft numbers) will be auctioned separately at a later date.
Apparently number 22 has been particularly sought after. Shame there is no smilie with blacked out eyes! Shades will have to do!!

The advertising campaign is obviously now starting to pick up momentum. Saw the story in this weeks Northern Scot yesterday and understand there was also an interview on Guernsey Radio. 71 prints now sold, so getting close to the point where all the costs are covered (as detailed on the website).
