ScaleModelWorld Telford 2016

Anyone going?

I'm hoping to be there both days.

Does anyone know of any WW1 'secret' unveilings?

Guy

Ps sorry I haven't posted much the last few months - just that I've been waiting (seems like forever) for a new Wingnuts offering. As it hasn't been forthcoming I've been making other kits!

It has been a quiet (non existent!) year for Wingnuts...

Hello Guy

Great to hear from you. I'm sure your long WNW wait will soon be over - maybe creeping in just before 2017?

As for Telford, I think that at least the following will be there:

coyotemagic (Bud)
Drdave
NickT
Brez (Tony)
Edgar who will be with the Copper State stand.

I'm meeting Bud at midday on Saturday by the Copper State stand. It would be great if you could get there too. Unfortunately, I can only be there for the Saturday, so I don't think I'll be able to take and post loads of photos this year.

As for 'secret unveilings', I know of none, but for me it will be the chance to buy the brand new Copper State Caudron G4.

Best wishes
Nigel

Guy, as Nigel has mentioned, he and I will be meeting up around noon at the Copper State table.  Also in the area is the Great War SIG table where I will be hanging out a good part of the time both days, so do stop by there, as well.  Their display is always impressive.  I look forward to meeting you.
Cheers,
Bud

Can only echo your sentiments Guy,

A year of silence, for new Wingnuts models from our perspective.

Again another year passes, and I am unable to attend the hallowed Telford show unfortunately.

I would be most greatful if you, or any of the other chaps could post a few pictures from the displays to inspire us.

Will you be taking any of your builds along for display?

Best wishes to all the attendees,

Dave sometime in Dubai  :)

Yep,

Will take some pics and post here...

Shame you can't make it Dave & Lance.

And no, not taking anything this year. They've all got too many flaws! Hopefully next year.
