Tom's model looked great in the fleshDid you enter anything yourself? Yes it was a great day out for the family. Went with the wife and kids, my Brother and a mate. We also took 3 other boys who are toms mates that come over to model together. I entered two 1/35th tanks - five 1/16 figures and one 1/35 panther tank diorama. The dio got 3rd place and I got a highly commended for one of my figures. My bro got two highly commended 1 for viginette another for figures, he also got 3rd for figures. Our first model comp, so we are VERY happy with the placings - there was just SO much great stuff to admire! Did you enter anything mate? - cheers johno Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enzo the Magnificent Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 The Spitfire looks like it is flying at low level over the desert. I have read about Clive Caldwell who used to fly like that over the desert using his own shadow for target practice. Maybe a P-40 Kittyhawk is in Tom's future.

I might have been sitting near you and your family during the presentations! I entered my P-3 Firebomber (which got 3rd in the civil aircraft category), the RAAF 707 tanker, a USAF UH-1N and a DC-3 in small scale aircraft which did not rate. The standard was great.
