Made the annual visit to this event on Sunday October 14th. Here then are some pics ....
An overall view of the venue, Immanuel College in Morphetville. I was there at 9am and the place was fairly busy when I left 2 hours later
The club theme this year was, Animal Kingdom, so this large table of models named after animals was the first thing you saw
Some armour
Cars and motorbikes. The Brough Superior was a very nice model. The wreck in the last 2 pics won first prize in its category, so you don't have to build a whole model, just build half very well
More in a minute.

Re: South Australian Plastic Model Show
Last lot Softskin vehicles and a Bf110 instrument panel
Very nice Scammell. One of Dad's rides when he was with REME
Later on I saw this model with an artillery tractor body on it. I did like this display with the suspension working though
A couple of big rigs. I regularly see these Cleveland Freight Lines Kenworths on the main roads. It's a long drive East West across Australia
That seems to be all. Any comments or questions, don't hesitate to ask

Great photos Nigel, and thanks for taking the time to post them up! Some delightful builds amongst them for sure; my favourite has to be the Iraqi tank, who knew Saddam was a tanker!
The WW1 skull scene is very good, and very thought provoking; great imagination and execution

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

Re: South Australian Plastic Model Show 2018
Thanks for your effort in taking and posting the pictures. There are a lot of fascinating models there, captured very well. Oddly enough, the E-100 (?) in the 1st batch caught my eye for the subtle camo stripes and mud/dust weathering.

It's my model and I'll do what I want with it.

Yes, the Maus. I too thought the camo and weathering was very well done on that kitjRatz wrote:Thanks for your effort in taking and posting the pictures.

I can't remember the manufacturer or type of tank it was, but it was a big kit, bigger than 35th scale, and I liked the wear and weathering applied to it.iggie wrote:Great photos Nigel, and thanks for taking the time to post them up!

Great pictures of some truly outstanding models. Thanks for sharing all that inspiration.
