discussion Scale Model Challenge 2018

[Fernando N]

Hi everybody, last weekend I went to the SMC in Veldhoven and met up with Allen Dewire as we both wanted to enter the competition for just the experience and maybe win something...

Besides both of us having a nice haul in kits, tools and supplies we saw many great works of model making.
Here are some of the photo's I took:

Thanks Dave, although many of my countrymen and women take part in SMC, many German Belgium French etc. join in too.
Gives such a great variety, so many nations in a show.:thumb2:

Good Evening Boys and Girls from Around the World,

Last weekend I drove over 5 hours to get to a truly wonderful show in Veldhoven, Holland and meet up with a good friend, Fernando N (cause I can't spell his last name) to spend money enter a model competition for the first time in our lives. I also took a bunch of pictures and would like to share them with you. Many of the pictures were taken by both of us of the same subject but from a different angle.

BTW, Fernando bought all the kits and all I got was some tools, accessoires and a rocket! Oh, I did win a few things from the raffle too. The pictures are random and from the comp, judge's models and from the clubs in attendance. I hope you like them!
The Judge's first,
