There will be both in a forthcoming issue of SAMi, where the model and modeller will be given their due.

...and if that wasn't enough I was very surprised to and heartened to see a picture of the display and the some of the crew (Viking, Barry, Jack, Beany and myself) in the latest IPMS(UK) magazine. There is also a pic of Barry getting his HP Trophy and if you are sharp-eyed you can even spot Jack again elsewhere in the magazine.

I have to say the IPMS magazine gives an excellent overview of the whole SMW show, much better than previous years (honestly, I not just saying that 'cos were weren't in it before! ;-) ).

IPMS/USA devotes a whole issue to the Nationals - have IPMS/UK followed their lead?

Yes, it's SMW all the way through, like a stick of rock :grin:

Right then, it's a new year, I've been working away from home right over Xmas and New Year so haven't scraped plastic in anger for weeks, and I'm ready to start building for SMW 2012, so can someone get a poll started please...

Cheers
Al.

Well, I just got the Feb 2012 Military in Scale (incorporating Model Aviation World). Their SMW section has two pix -- Hovercraft & Lancaster -- but we're identified as the "Beyond the Box" SIG and supposedly took a Gold Medal ....

Jan 2012 Model Aircraft -- 3 photos (Blenhein, Lanc, motley crew behind stand), all correctly labeled, on page 32.
I believe every other SIG/chapter/display featured had only one photo.

Just got mine yesterday as well - I fear Gary flatters me.... :oops:

Nice to see us getting plenty of mentions again though - clearly, we struck a chord with this display.
