Only 2 weeks until the ESM. TomZ, 63cpe and me will be there with our 'Prototypes and What-if' stand.

Sounds like a fun show. I would try to attend but it's my mothers 80th birthday then which takes priority.

Ehm,  Tom Z could you take that lovely sharkit Lockheed L-133 to the show? Would make a lovely couple with my L-233.

I also made four extra perspex showboards to extend our display.

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

Some pics of yesterdays show. We ( TomZ, Hobbes and me) had a great time. Had lots of talks and laughs with lots of people. I observed many people watching our models with serious faces, than frown, than laugh (or at least smile).

Also many people watching our models in disbelief and asking us if this ever happened.

Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)
