Here're the shots. My little Fokker Triplane came third in the WW1 category, but my wooden 109 only received a thanks for participating certificate. Not to worry.

That's quite the 'death stare'! What has he just seen on the table that shocked him?  ;D

Looks like Jerry has recovered from his chance meeting with the SIG in the hotel at Telford  :wacko:

How the hell he didnt know he was next door to the world's largest model show, untill we told him why the hotel was crawling with modellers..........................

I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Size (of the stash) matters.

love your Me 109 with rear gun - I have been toying with a similar design in 48 scale but as a biplane - would be what Willy might have designed if he stuck with conventional pre-war design

yours looks great

Allan

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

As a matter of fact Allan caught me off guard, :D I had had a hectic day running the competition entry database. Not a very good shot I am afraid.... I am not that grumpy looking usually, Honest!

Did you get a shot of my RAAF Typhoon Allan?
