South Australian Plastic Model Show

October 14 and 15th saw the annual South Australian Plastic Modellers Association show and competition. I attended on the Sunday, and here in no particular order are some pics.

This appealed because at one time every car that was missing it's radio aerial had a coat hanger in the shape of Australia stck in the empty slot :)

cheers for the pictures Nigel; some great models amongst that lot and some excellent inspiration too. If South Australian juniors are turning out Daks that good, I'm packing it in!
Best wishes

If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing
