    Model club photo's

    Some of you might know I've only just got back into models since I was a young'n. On my travels, I've found a great hobby shop that's pretty local. Just going in there the first time, the owner came up, introduced himself and really took a genuine effort to get to know me. Needless to say, i've been in there whenever I can, even if it's just for a chat, and I've since seen him extend this same hospitality to everyone...

    At the end of every month, they have a casual get together.. A model 'club' if you will. Where many get together and chat, and also bring their models in to show them off and get hints and tips from each other.

    I'm going to use this thread to showcase the models that come in each month, as some of them are very VERY good.

    First up is a diorama of a 1/72 RAAF Herc in Iraq. the guy that did it hasn't done a model since he was young, and used spray packs for the paint! I can't wait to see what he does with an airbrush!

    Beautiful Herc That PBR is the Tamiya 1/35 model, is it not? I have looked longingly at that kit in Tamiya catalogues since I was a nipper, my people painting skills ( or lack thereof!) would let it down though.
