GASTON COUNTY MODEL BUILDERS APRIL MEETING PIX

Iron Mike

Master At Arms And Resident Curmudgeon
Howdy! Well, it's been awhile since my schedule allowed me to make a club meeting! Last night's meeting was bittersweet, it was my last trip to John's Toy & Hobby, they are closing after more than 50 years in business. Chris and I met up with Adam B. at the store, scored some last minute deals, shared a minute with Glenn, the owner and then headed to the meeting. Well attended, with some cool builds. Here's a few snapshots...

Adam rescued this build from the rafters of the shop, he built it back in the 90's. Says he's improved since then. :laugh:

Roger Woods aka Skyraider AF built the Spirit of St Louis, Lindy would have been indeed lucky to have this bird!

There were some other models there, but you've seen them here. Had a ball, if I missed taking pix of your builds, it wasn't on purpose. This is a great group of good friends, so if you are in the Gastonia, NC area on the 4th Friday of the month, haul yourself in, we'll have a good time!! :drinks
 
Great pics Mike.

And yea, I like to think that I've gotten better since I built that B-24, but there are days that I cant help but wonder if thats really true, haha.
 
Great pics Mike-- really looks like you all had fun! Man do I wish there was something like that around here...but we've got more cows than people in our town ;)
 
Great looking stuff Mike. I recognize that banana from somewhere too :D Hopefully tat got the modeling mojo going again.
