Kilmore Model show, 29/03/09

Here's the info for next years Kilmore Model Show

I just confirmed with Clive and this show is still on for the 29th (F1 day ) so who's heading to it? at this stage I'm going (as a modeller not a trader) and as far as I know Koolkits will be set up there, also think TPB as well.

I'll be there. I am going to display some of my stuff for the 1st time ever. How many models can you display & what does it cost.

Good on you Frank! it will be good to see your stuff on the tables. You can take as many models as you wish and it's $2 per model capped at $10. See you there

Hmmmm. I'd be going but I spent last weekend motorbiking the roads around Gippsland and need to show my face at home.
Enjoy.

Well..........what can I say about today's show........

- They no longer judge by the NNL format (where the Entants Vote) so it was judged by the organizers
- Apparently "DIECASTS" are models that are Judged good enough to beat "BUILT STYRENE KITS" in a Plastic model show.......
- Last year the traders area was slim pickings if you wanted to buy a kit, but this year there where HUNDREDS of them!!! and yes I bought a few.
- I caught up with lots of people including , the Parts Box, Frank from Model Art, Frank from right here who also took along a swag models for the show( On ya Mate ), Spiritman and lots more.
- I gotta say I had a great time today, unfortunately most of that was not inside the show!
- Congrats to Andy for placing 2nd in Competition cars and 1st in Pre '50 cars

Oh and sorry to disappoint but......I forgot to take a camera!! so you all will have to wait for either Andy or Frank to post some pix up.............failing that there might be some in a Future issue of Model Art magazine!!

Was a good arvo ay Paul... Beautiful weather to sit in the local pub's beer garden... mm beer..

I was a lil let down when i found out that it was being judged and not by votes by your fellow builders. ah well.. finally my Cop Out got some recognition.. 2nd in competion cars.

heres some piccys..

Looks like a good turnout...

...but take away the diecasts and how many would be left?

Wish i'd gone now. Would have been better than degreasing the barbie...

There were only a few diecasts... but they're the same ones that appear at every show every year..
thats the most dissapointing thing.. same builds every year..

I had a great day. This is the 1st time I have displayed models, but I may do a bit more often now. Also spent a bit of money in the vendors section (haven't told the other half yet).

Looks like a great show. Love the truck section, some amazing builds there.

Congrats Andy,looks like a fun day

Thanks for posting the pix Andy!!

So Frank will we see your stuff on the tables at Ballarat?

Well done Andy, you guys prolly noticed I didn't make it.  Had enuff if F1 so took the Mrs to Tassie for a 1/1 car show.
