First day is now done and dusted.
The show is smaller than previous due to the 2nd hall being unavailable for use since it was converted into a large gym.

My photos of both What if? and project Cancelled stands can be found at HERE      (https://imageshack.com/a/AIu17/1)
It should already be set for public viewing but give me a shout if it doesnt want to play ball.
I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Size (of the stash) matters.

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

Good grief. The SIG needs a trophy cabinet.

Magic stuff, well done indeed!

Maybe we're getting properly recognised at last?

It was a very good show and I think slightly improved by being condensed into one hall. Certainly gave the feeling of being more people attending. I had a great time with everyone and have just got home from days on the hills and mooching around the bookshops of Wigtown.

You should have seen the look on Martins face when the trophy was announced - it was a near double take!  ;D
"What? Did they call us? Have we won something?!!!"  :o  ;D

A pity someone didn't film that occasion.  ;D

Were there are pics of the whole stand?

Woohoo, well done.

The drinks are on Martin.  Cordials all round.   :drink:

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

Try that web address Kit, its from the shows own web site. They also have a photo of the What if? stand but not one of Project cancelled just yet.
