Ah right, thanks. No doubt they were all electric powered by then?

Some weird fusion hybrid, as typical for Star Wars

Some shots of a reasonably Recent local show in the outer north of Melbourne. Put on by NAM, new venue, new location in Epping.

The Six engine bomber, loosely based on a RW project but bought to life by Uncle Les as sometime seen member here.
Lots of 3D printed stuff like the forward cockpit area and the AS-1 Kennel Missiles

Some great stuff indeed..especially like the X Wing drag car but that 6 engined monster is amazing.

Thanks for posting those, some great stuff there 

My personal favourite is the Steam Galley 

Didn't some mad Greek allegedly come up with an idea for such a creation ?

Do you mean someone like Archimedes, Pythagoras, Euclid, etc....

Good pics Buzzo.  Thanks for sharing.

I nearly went to that.  Looks like I should of made the effort.  I have been to one of their previous shows years ago which was in a scout hall and was tiny.  I assumed this one would be similar. 
But of course we all know what assumption is the mother of don't we...

Thank you sir. I knew that as our resident classicist you'd know if anyone would

I have no idea who built this as there was no name on the model sheet next to the model. But this modernised Yamato class battleship was entered in the competition at the IPMS/USA Nationals Model Convention this past weekend. And to the best of my knowledge, I don't think it placed as I didn't see an award next to the model Saturday night. I'll have to wait till the award results are posted later in the week on the main IPMS/USA website to find out.
It's a nice model, but from my perspective, some locations for weapons don't really work that well, especially when you consider the firing arc aspect.

I don't recall seeing that one. Looks pretty cool. Biggest thing I see right away is the boat crane.
