Last weekend in April so for me just after pay day ;D
I also have a Hire car booked over the weekend so fully intend to be there to help set up on the Friday.
Gondor
I will be there ;D
Most likely from mid afternoon on the Friday. All depends on what time of the morning I leave home.
I am guessing that we will have our usual tables in the usual places
Gondor
dont count on it, the show manager quite often moves us around.
A little slower than usual but here are some pictures I took at the show
First the What -If SIG Tables

Some What-If's seen on other tables, mainly the Swedish SIG and probably because the Swedish Aircraft Industry has produced some "different" looking aircraft over the years that they lean towards such modelling...

That's all the pictures I took on Saturday, more later from Sunday
Gondor
What a cracking display you guys put on, well done indeed! :thumbsup: :bow:
I see the 'Wessex Fleet' made another appearance, and I recognise some of JayBee's output on there, the Twin Vampire and the Skean Dhu amongst them. Some of those Swedish Whiff's are truly superb, and 'WAY out in left field' as our American cousins say.
That long spanned Tornado won the Gold Medal in the Whiff class at Telford Last year, and very good it is too, although it would have been easier, and more impressive, in 1/72 to my mind.
I really must try and get up to Perth one year, maybe 2014 would be a good target.
thanks gondor!
that canard SA bulldog i do like.... just where the heck did he put all that nose weight? or is there a tail prop i can't see?
Cheers for those Alistair :thumbsup: Well done gents, great display

......and it took the Scottish What If trophy this year as well. An absolutely cracking little model it is too.

Hear are some of the pictures I took on Sunday, mainly from the Competition area but some from other parts of the show.

Sorry about the quality of some pictures, I am getting used to a new camera.

That R2D-Gromit is a hoot! ;D :thumbsup:
my photos can be found here (http://s2.photobucket.com/user/martinhiggs/library/Scots%20Nationals%202013?sort=4&page=1).
Whose was that locomotive in the SIG display?
It's BRILL, Blue Pullman cabs grafted onto a Class 37 or a Deltic centre body and all done in BR green with yellow ends, pure genius! :thumbsup: :bow:
That was the work of the late and sorely missed Joe Cherrie Snr.
That explains the 'vintage' look about it then, pure late 50s, early 60s.
That paper loco is amazing :bow: They always have a huge display of paper models at the MK show. Some incredible stuff especially the old ironclad ships and castles....one day, one day :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
