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.
