Well, I'm finally able to get some pics posted here. I'll try and get some posted that are not repeats of what Paul posted. I did get one of every 1/72 scale armor and military vehicle entered but I won't overwhelm you with all of them! LOL
EDIT: Restored!
I'll start with some overall shots here:
This is one half of the contest/display room. Strangely enough, I did not get the other half. But you can see from just this half; how huge this room was:
The display table are the ones in front; the contest tables were in the back positioned perpendicular to the display ones.
Then the models, in no particular order. This one in particular I wanted to show as this is what I want to do with my Ratte P.1000 in 1/72 scale. I'll be able to carry more in mine:
There were a lot of hilarious ones in the Humor category. Here's some of them:
Read the sheet next to this. Explains everything....
Some clever Osprey eggs:
I love that one 'nesting'!
This is what happens when you use hot glue:

Another great 1/72 scale rendition of a very famous photograph:
Here's a great "What if?" with a Pancake flying over a modified Arizona class battleship:
This was viewed through a window set up to give you the feeling that you were on board this watching it happen. Most impressive!
Sailing ships were very well represented this year. Quite a few incredible masterpieces showed up!
This was a Junior sailing ship made from the Revell snap-tite model kit. They were ten:
Great fireboat. I've been wanting to build one of these:

[div]Here's some more pics, this time some Sci-fi and Real Space. Again, I'll try to post things that haven't been posted before, but there may be some repeats.
I really love the copper shine on this!
1/72 scale Millennium Falcon:
Great interior on it too, all lit up:
This one was close to four feet long... and lit up:
See if you can identify some of the models that went into doing this one:
That's all I can post for now. I'm getting very slow internet speeds so this is getting a bit tough. I'll try to get more up tomorrow.
