Richard.
Firstly congratulations on your results. You were up against some seriously top modelers, so you must be thrilled to have done so well .
As in the past the photos show just how high the standard of modelling is in the Far East , thanks again for bringing to shows to us.

Thanks Guys.

Jimbo...I could have wished for a day or two more...just too much to take in.
Polux...you're welcome.
Fernando...there's a Youtube on Won...I didn't know he was that prolific in ship building and effects...

Paul... can't be more happier rubbing shoulders with the other winners of that calibre.
John...just as much as I would wish to visit your shows there I'm glad to show ones from this side of the globe. Glad you like them.

Cheers,
Richard

Hi Tim, thanks. The organiser boasts 1,000 displays. Don't know if that's true unless you count individually the Sci-fi and Game figures which were abundant on the club tables. That reminds me I didn't show the Gundam, Cars and Games figures. Have to seek pictures that friends captured for this.

Cheers,
Richard

Richard.
Those two ladies look very intent listening to your explanation.
There seem to be quite a few ladies modellers there.
Great to see.

John,
The two ladies are my friend Loo's wife and daughter. The daughter read the plaque and was curious hence the explanation. I know of only two female modellers that attended the show. Ms Tamaki of Japan was absent this time around.

Cheers,
Richard
