I went to Coventry show on sunday-but couldn't stay as long as I liked as I also went to the  Spalding show!
Good to say hello to everyone-hope you like the pics.

A fun day was had by all, and congratulations to Terry for his 1st place (and a 3rd!) for his Crusader Scout-Walker




And here is the great man himself



The 1/72 aircraft contest was won by this stunning Nimrod AEW conversion



And Chris (Falcon) had to change his underwear after this experience ;)

Wow!  It's nice to finally see some of Radish's work, and know it for what it is.  Looks like a great show.

Radish

The hair is due for a re-tint almost anytime now. Purple again.
The "radical" Walker could well appear.
First though, I need to work on some Stafford stuff for Telford, an A-20C Boston III of the RAAF, and finish a Polish Snowspeeder as a Border patrol vehicle, a Soviet F-104 "Starski", build an F6F-5/jeep diorama in 1/48th for Telford, ....then I'll start.
So about a month then.
Oh, need to finish the "Hitler" Dalek and the "Rasta" Dalek too.
Thanks for the comments. :dalek:

T'is my ickle creation is the Hurrijet (Jeticane?) Well, there was a G/B on the UAMF forum and everyone was doing "normal" builds, well, it's rude not to have the odd bit of whiffery isn't it?. The kits involved are Heller Hurricane MKII and Airfix Meteor MKIII. build piccies here http://gregers.7.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?t=5142 .
