Anybody else do good at a Hobby Town show?

Posted by lizardqing on Saturday, March 27, 2004 7:11 PM

Twas a great day for mine and the wifes modeling self esteems. Brought home 4 first places, 1 second and 2 thirds between the 2 of us. Pretty good feeling going around here. Also got to score a whole new pile of kits includeing the Dragon Morsel gun,M60 for her and a Academy M113 and lots of accersories and spent $11. Was cool geting to meet another member from here as well. Tim ( monsterarmor) also did very well.
So anybody else have a great day too now that I'm done beating my drum? Big Smile [:D]

Congrats Chris and wife. There was bad weather where I live and the turn out was not that great at my local area Hobby town. I did not enter a model. I will in the October contest. I did buy 120.00 worth of models. They had 25% off on all models.

Hey guys,

Was this the show outside Philadelphia? I couldn't make it since I had to work. Did they have any companies that make cast resin parts? I may have to find such a company.

I entered one diorama. I took best diorama and Best of Show. And I won a cordless dremel tool as the door prize! Not a bad day's work. I shuffled off with about $170 worth of booty. WooHoo!

Still love that Marder. You did an outstanding job on it.
You really should post Mrs Lizards models on there too, or is there a Mrs Lizard's workshop! Tongue [:P]

I will post some photos soon. Digital photos were taken at a show last week, but the guy who took them hase not posted them yet. I don't have a digital camera, as I am still in the stone-age, er..film age and have not photographed the model yet.

I had to work and was told that they wouldn't keep models overnight. Sad [:(]

Despite the fact that I did very well at our local show, I'm a little disappointed that my local Hobbytown doesn't participate in the national event, so that even with my best of show, I don't get to compete.
