Model Fiesta 2025

Post by Medicman71 »

All set to go to the show this Saturday. Gonna bring 4 kits for the contest and 6 for the display area. I feel like this is a good representation of my builds.

Hey Mike! That is some model building excellence in those bins! That Y-Wing (Red Jammer?) is a favorite of mine and will always be! Such subtle, accurate details! Even upside down! Nice Resistance X-Wing in splinter camo and several snappy Gundams!! Plus those jets! That’s some terrific looking camo! All squared away and ready to show!!!
Make more models!

Best of luck! The builds you selected look great. Go get ‘em!

While I hope that I get a medal of some kind, it's not what I go for. There's going to be a lot of people that are friends on and off Facebook and forums. I get to show off models that aren't part of the contest. I enjoy just hang out with like minded people that have NOTHING to do with work.

Good luck Mike with the 4 !

I am sure the F-16 will be one of the four contestors, would be surprised if it does not end in top-3 of it's category.

Thanks guys!

Kari, the F-16 is not part of the contest. It's already been in it last year and didn't place at all.

And I've got everything set to go.

Looks like you will have a nice representation of your work at the show. :hmm: Let us know how they make out.
