Old Wombat:
Last call for a Meet'n'Greet with zenrat, buzzbomb, rickshaw & myself! ;)

We'll be meeting up at 1300hrs on Saturday but I, for one, will be there almost* all weekend.





[*: I'll be disappearing for a little while on Sunday in an attempt to get photo's of a particularly odd variant of an M3 Grant to build for next years expo.]

Old Wombat:
Had a great weekend, mostly hanging out with Brian (buzzbomb) & met Fred (zenrat) on the Saturday (he had other reasons for being in the area & couldn't stay too long) but, unfortunately, Brian (rickshaw) was unwell & couldn't attend.

Then today was better than I expected.


The "Encounter in the Ruins" diorama got a Commendation


The Avro Winchester got 3rd Place (in the Unnominated/Scrathbuilt category), and


The (Real World) Polikarpov I-16 Type 24 got 2nd Place



My first ever placings ... I'm quite chuffed! ;D

Old Wombat:
Brian (buzzbomb) didn't do too badly either!

His is the "ESGF Radar Picket" (2nd Prize)




His is the BSG Viper Mk 2 Blacksun





(This won 1st Prize, too, but the Prize photo was a mess & had to be deleted)


I've probably missed several because he seemed to be walking up to collect a prize every few seconds! :o  ;D  :smiley:

Old Wombat:
A few of my favourites & a link to my SmugMug album;















And, lastly, this one when I was trying to quietly subvert the Small Scale Multi-Prop category into accepting a Whif amongst its entrants ...  :icon_ninja:

... Unfortunately I got found out & moved. Lucky for them, I say! ;) >:D
