We had another successful competition evening on Thursday which was well attended. I've noticed lately that the entries are much more diverse subjects and it's not just planes and tanks!

The result was as follows;

1. Luc with his scratch built Fairmile D boat
2. Pete with his Op Herrick diorama
3. Chris with his ship diorama

Well done to Luc once again. That's 3 in a row, can he win the next one and hold all 4 trophies? find out in September, when we will hold the Battlefield trophy. This is an open competition. Any subject, any scale. Get building guys.

Here are pictures of all the entries from Thursday night. Well done to everyone for taking part. See you for the next meeting in July on Thursday, 18th.

Steve's Vampire F10 and Rescue Sycamore Helicopter.

Pete's Op Herrick diorama with Jackel and a fair few figures.

The club was invited to Thistle Model Makers Society's annual show. Here is a few pictures of the club display and our work bench. Perhaps there were too many model railways in attendance, are George and Simon thinking of turning to the dark side?







Just back from Perth and the Scottish National Model Show. Here is our club stand and a few of our members. Congratulations to George on his Highly Commended and Euan on his usual haul and best junior in show award, again! well done guys.
