Master at Arms
Here we go with a quick update on the first day of the show
I met up with MA`er John Bowry and his Mrs Maureen and spent a while chatting and then on to pick my spot and set up my figures and bunged the old halftrack in a nice place.
John has some great figures on show
It simply amazes me the quality of stuff throughout the exhibit hall
Now you aint gonna beleive this but I chatted to one of my personal heros within the hobby
Lewis Pruneau and what a really really nice bloke he is too,... I actually told him that Bob L ( sorry for the name drop Bob )told us all to look out for his Hindenburg box dio he laughed and said tell you what you can be the first to see it so he sat me down in the chair within the box ( tells you how big it is ) and turned the lights on and OMG it is simply stunning and all the while I was wowing and whooping he was pissing his pants laughing he says to get a wow out of someone when they look at his stuff is worth more to him than any medal, a modest man as well
,...... I let him carry on and looking back to see his arse sticking out of the box he was still sorting out and that made me laugh
The next really nice bloke I bumped into was Dan Capuano with hisstunning selection of 120mm Lage dios one with a Tiger and one with a T34 the quality that man does on a 120mm figure is amazing his large collection of 120mm single figure are just as equally amazing as the dios photos of those tomorrow
Another one time MA`er Bill Chilstrom was also present and I was introduced to him biefly didnt get chance to ask him to update his masterclass section but his figures are truely fantastic as well
usual suspects of the figure modelling world are there Chris Mrosko, Matt Wellhouser, Mike Blank, Anders Heintz, to name but a few
Hopefully I will get chance to chat to some more celebs tomorrow and take some more pictures as I had to leave early to play Football (soccer) this evening
That Russian Sniper is pic 2 is simply outstanding I have a picture of that in Bills book but to see it in real life is hey ( Im running out of good words to describe the awesomeness LOLOL )
