| We ended up in the same place
as last year... |
...with some of the big models
on display out front... |
...and Jim's dollies and
dioramas taking pride of place! |
Dave Pengelly's 1/8th
JagdPanther didn't run too much as he was waiting for some new tracks from
myself which I promptly forgot to bring!! |
Ray and Kieren's models were
kept apart from the Axis just in case trouble broke out! |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
| A close up of Ray's
scratchbuilt M3 halftrack, very nice. |
This was Mark Spencer's new
1/8th metal Tiger from his Chinese associate which ran very well out of the
box. |
Richard's WaSan T34 with an
interesting camouflage scheme. |
Dave P's Goliath being pulled
along by a couple of Humpy's Pea Pattern Clone Army! |
Seen on the South West RC
Modellers stand was this part built Armortek Tiger of Marc Ford. Hopefully
it will be running next year Marc? |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
| Here it is, the real deal, the
Museums working Tiger. Except that it's not actually working at the mo! |
We believe that the engine had
been removed to go to the SdKfz Restoration Foundation's workshops in Kent
for re-working. |
Whilst out and about in the
Museum there were plenty of other Tank enthusiasts with there models on
display here an excellent JagdPanther in winter... |
...and here a heavily
camouflaged Panther and crew take a break from the rigours of war. |
These 1/6th scale models
belongs to one of our newest Members, Bev Johnston, who some of us will
remember gave the commentary from the boat club stand when we used to go and
play out on the tank course in years gone by. |

 |
| This large diorama had the
Yanks arriving in one end of the town while the Germans were preparing for
it's defence at the other end. |
"The Yanks are
coming!" unaware of the Germans. |
Some of Dr Who's deadliest
enemies were taking a break from ransacking the universe to visit the show! |
Peter Couldwell's very
clever on the inside Panther has received a new camo
scheme for this year. |
This T34 belongs to Dave
Thacker another one of our new members. |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
| This little Jeep is another of
Ray's creations! |
All hands to the pump, er,
well transmitters then. We have the frequency pegs and the clocks ticking so
lets go! |
The models roll along the side
of the car park towards the trade stands... |
...and along the row of stands
and exhibitors... |
...and out the other
end and back onto the car park. |
