I'll be almost exclusively on the Biggles stand, but hope to drop by at sometime. I'll bring ....don't know, yet.
Not sure what'll fit in the car what with the Stafford and Biggles stuff, plus wife. But I'll try to bring something.

Every year I swear there will be no repeat of the previous years last minute rush and what happens ? I still have a last minute rush  :banghead:

Still have to varnish my 2 models but they will get done tommorow. I can say that the rush this year was caused by reasons completely out of my control  :angry:

Still nearly there  :thumbsup:

I understand your frustration Brother Narses, I used to be like that too. Not any more. Finished my last Nationals build, a T-33 for Gary Wenko's Japanese Aircraft SIG stand with five days to spare. Everything of mine is boxed, labelled and ready to go. All I have to do is fill the car with a 6'3" pensioner (and his precious white fiver), my mate Steve from work and some petrol..... S O R T E D  :mellow:

Your pictures would be much better if you could persuade that ugly bird in the middle to stay out of them  :banghead: ;D

Chris,

Drop the Gruppenfuhrer off at the nearby shopping centre and you'll be good for the entire day, no problem!  ;)

Sneeky bugger arnt you?

Expensive though ?
It certainly would be Chris, as the reason I am getting rid of yet more kits is so I can get back on the road. Letting the Gruppenfuhrer anywhere near any sort of retail outlet would mean me selling my kidneys on the black market...again!!  :banghead:
Chris very very  :angry: for missing out on this weekend

I have decided I will be going on Saturday, and I was wondering, can I bring models to display, or do I have to be a member of the IMPS or something first?
Some of my models can be found on my Flickr album >>>HERE<<<

We've never needed to be a member of a Motorcycle Display Team before to bring models for the table.  ;D

Being an IPMS member just gets you in for free and earlier too. It's up to OGL if you can display models, but he's an easy going chap, so long as he's not riled that is....  ;)
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

I have to agree wholeheartedly with that comment...especially as OGL is giving me a lift from Wellingborough  ;D

Despite all the planning it's still f****** hectic!!
Got a bit more to do, things to sort, and IPMS Stafford tonight.

Perhaps I need to prioritise more...hell, no!! I am what I am!
See you Friday/Saturday/Sunday and say "Hi" to Biggles ;D

So far filled 5 large plastic boxes with probably 2 more to go.
Plus bags of bases, books, modelling kit etc....

Stuff it :angry:. Trying to get the painting done on my HobbyBoss Wildcat and the paint just peeled off right down to the plastic. It's only Tamiya tape and the undercoat has been dry for 3 days. :banghead:

The Typhoon has a little of the same problem but I might get away with it.....

Need to buy some ModelStrip at Telford so I can sort these kits out. A better brand of primer might help too.
