One of the biggest model shows in Australia is the Queensland Model Hobbies Expo ( QMHE) in the Brisbane area which always features a tempting array of great models and traders with the latest in kits and accessories.
The QMHE has been working its magic this weekend and we stopped by to see what WW1 gems were on the tables. Sadly there was very little in competition, but those that were competing were outstanding and some club displays featured some excellent 1/48th and 1/72 scale subjects.
First, the competition entries.
Wingnuts kit but, like all entries, no name displayed.
Club display table models
This was one of several 1/72 scale Fokker DR1s on display
As always a great show but the surprisingly low turnout of WW1 subjects in the competitions should be an incentive to others for next year!
