IPMS Seattle - Spring Show

Last Saturday I was in Renton, WA for the IPMS show. Was a great turnout and I picked up a couple of kits and the new GF grabbed Mater from the Cars movies. She paints, quilts and other stuff but this will be her first kit.

Couple of decent whiffs around (it is Seattle after all).

Plus some other fun stuff that caught my eye.

And a large number of models were just on display including a few whiffs.

We also hit the Museum of Flight on Friday after we landed.

Thanks for posting, like those tigercats, especially the turboprop F/A-65K, guess that would be a "Counter-Cat"

some wonderful ones there for humour, and a lot of very good looking non humour stuff as well, Thank you.

Love the Tigercats and the twin DH2 is just magnificent

Oh, that Merkava combo just missed the extra touch, combining it with a Mercury or a Mercedes. But still a fun build!

I'm glad when our fellow modelers show inventiveness and are open to modeling as a fun hobby!

I don't know what it is about Seattle & Washington state but a lot of fun stuff seems to come out of there.

If I ever get to do some world traveling, it is one of the few places I really want to visit in the USA.

Good stuff. Phil!

Spent a few days there whilst returning to the UK from Alaska. It is a lovely place

Thanks, we try to keep things interesting. My dad took my nephew and I to the show. Phil, we may have bumped into each other at the show.
