Congratulations on your win Sean, it was well deserved, seeing your model up close really showed all the effort you put into building it, well done mate.

Bud Yes "Mr Hyperscale" Brett Green spoke to me on the Satarday Morning of the show. He was very Impressed with the model and asked me several questions !
KrzysiekK I worked on and off the model for several months taking my time. The build was very straight forward with the rigging obviously being the hardest or most time consuming. The only hing I still struggle with is finding somewhere to display it now it's finished but I knew that before I started it , but I just had to build it!
Des Would have been nice to have meet you over the weekend I heard you live in Nowra and more than likely would have been in for the Airshow.

no I didn't was to busy chatting with everyone. Went to hars on satarday
because my mate knows one of the guys there .
He showed us through the workshop. We watched the cat and Connie and avenger
do low flying curcuits over the model show in my opinion it was just as
good as being at the airshow!
