You bet, that last one I was tempted to press the buttons to see if anything would happen.

Thanks for the photos. The M1 looked interesting with the dog house doors closed.

Nice builds. I like the M1 on the firing point.

Yeah the M1 on the range caught my eye too- as did that ( I assume) SLA Sherman in the odd blue camo in the picture before it. The ‘Contact Left’ with the converted technical ‘Bukhanka’ I think is very cool- but that Gameboy is something else- just makes you look twice and smile at the ingenuity of it!

It’s especially impressive being 1/72 scale.

I showed some restraint and only came home with a few books ( other than 2 kits from the raffle) but there was much to tempt armor modellers to empty their wallets.

I would never have guessed it was 1/72- whoever modelled it has some serious skills. Thanks for posting the pics from the show!

It’s the Hasegawa kit if I recall.

Wow! What a show! 720+ models entered. Almost all of stunning quality. Massive vendor room. I only came home with 2 kits and some paint, so I was very good. I also came home with 3 Silver Medals, so not bad, but not my best year.
Sean, it was just fantastic having lunch with you @Seanmcandrews and Dana @Armorsmith and wow, what a great conversation. It was wonderful getting to meet a couple of the Armorama team in person. Pity we didn’t have more join us. Still, an amazing 2.5 hour lunch!
Can’t wait, got to get building for next year! Show is in South Bend, Indiana. Theme is “Vietnam”. Not looking forward to the 14 hour drive, though. Still, an incredible experience!

Thanks Ryan.
No, REALLY, I know it’s hard to believe but I really restrained myself this year. A Tamiya H39, an RFM M4A3 76 VVSS, some AK Real Color paint, and some AK grass tufts. That’s it! I stunned myself!

That looks like an impressive display show. man, I wish I were there.

From photos seen on another site I missed a lot more added on Saturday, wished I could’ve stayed but had committed to a scout camping trip and Gettysburg historical hike.
