Great pics! I missed this when it was posted originally. I really like that Dragon Wagon. Would love to build the one in my stash, but I just dont think I can do it justice yet, plus I just dont know what to load on the trailer.

The day started with breakfast at Waffle House :idonno then the Surgeons stormed the venue.

Some of us had our game faces on.

Don's traveling gear.

Here are the show pix I took, sorry if there are duplicates of what Terry already posted.

Don checking his ammo belt of raffle tickets.

The auto categories were noticeable light, only 4 vehicles?

This was in the custom category?

Greg Metge's dioramas are top notch, we need to work on getting him posting here.

Not sure who did these.

More from Greg

Look familiar?

Detailed and dinky

Spooky!

ARMOR!

Lots of very nicely done pieces!

Lotsa birdies with one shot!

Danger, danger! Warning, warning!

Don Barry's comm truck had SO much going on, very cool!

More of Don's work

Aimee says, "So you wanna go to Waffle House again?"

Greg Metge and Don Barry, just like for the good ol' days at Great Hobby Adventures.

"Did Terry win another raffle prize?"

This was HUGE!

Now to the small stuff.

Rhino's Eggplane!

Time for lunch! A walk through the Ameristar.

That's Aimee (blackbettygto), Joe(leopard2), Don Barry (not a member, yet), Rachel and Rhino.

The lighting and paint make the indoor sky look like dusk on the prairie!

Don & Arthur Bryant, burnt ends again?

Monkey bizness?

More model pix after lunch.

Judging in progress.

This was just too cool!

The IPMS Plastic Surgeons show off their winnings, congrats guys!

They let an old member sneak into one photo, see if you can find him. :laugh:

The individual awards day belonged to our own Mr T, well done!

You won HOW many?

MA time in Kansas City, looks more like a police lineup!

On the way home, we made a side trip to prove that such an intersection DOES exist!

The weather was awful, but we had a great time with friends and companions. Great job and kudos to the West Central guys for another fun day!

I still don't see no beer gardens. Maybe next show we show up with a keg and grill and start a trend.

 

[Iron Mike]

The casino types wouldn't even allow signs to direct folks in, so thinking they wouldn't like that. :laugh:

Still wondering about the lack of autos. :idonno

 

[MrT]

Still wondering about the lack of autos. :idonno

Emails were sent out about that, but I haven't about any reply yet. So still a mystery.
