Has OGL been cloned?  I can see two of him.

Nope that will be Richard B one of the non forum based sig members and also of IPMS Coventry & Warwickshire.

Speaking of OGL - Martin let's see more of the excellent DC-5. Never seen one kitted before this weekend and then saw two - yours and a 1/144 example elsewhere.
Ill see about some photos.
I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Size (of the stash) matters.

What is the aircraft, with the white undersides?

What is the large delta just behind it, to the left with the camouflaged top?

An inquiring mind would like to know!  ;D

I don't  recall having  heard of this one.  Is there  a backstory  somewhere that I might read and enjoy?

Thank you.  That book is on my Christmas list so I have not read it yet.

Guys, did anyone get any close-ups of those ships?  I take it they are all scratch builds?  Did one of ours make them?  I remember somebody on here scratching CVA.01 and a helo cruiser.

The ships are all Thorvics and yes, they're all scratchbuilds, although I'm sure Geoff will correct me if I'm wrong.

Good stuff all, thanks for posting.

Like the group tables and also the Best of Show winner (any other sci fi pics?).

Found out that IPMS/USA is organizing a group trip for the 50th anniversary and I should be able to make it for that one.

At last you say, some photos.
Well, Kit (PR19) has already said that this takes time and he is not kidding. Download the photos, sort them into categories, resize the images, upload to photobucket, get the image codes from photobucket (and their updated site has not made that task easier!), create the word document and upload it to the forum.

This is the first category, The SIG display.

There are four more to come, WhIfs on other stands, and there is a lot of them. We are becoming positively mainstream!
Sci-Fi, 144 Scale, & Other Stuff.

First three views of the stand.








Next, as far as I am concerned is the Star of the SIG display. Created by Brad/Scooterman, and brought all the way from Dallas, Texas, is the Airbus A400 Atlas, built under licence by the ATLAS Air Craft Corporation of South Africa.
So it is an ATLAS Atlas!










































I am off to lie down in a darkened room now, but I will continue with the other categories when I have recovered.

Cats are not real. 
They are just physical manifestations of collisions between enigma & conundrum particles.

Any aircraft can be improved by giving it a SHARKMOUTH!

Cracking piccies JayBee, well done. Mine are still in the camera!
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

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)
