ASMS Had there show last weekend. It was pretty nice but attendance seemed down a little this year and the vendor's area was kind of sparse also. All in all it was a pretty good time. I did come away with some awards two 2nd places for these two:

Did not receive a plaque for the headhunter since the category was split, supposed to be in the mail.

Now those are really really nice builds. I love the trooper. Is that the Screamin one as well.

Well done and very well deserved.

Thanks Bish and Sprueone, I don't place to often so it's nice and sometimes surprising when I do. Compared to the talent and amount of kits in the respective categories I was pleasantly surprised.
Bish, you have a good eye. That is indeed the quarter scale trooper from Screamin
Thanks again for your kind comments

I have been paying a lot of attention to those screamin kits lately. I nearly got the copy of the stormtrooper earlier this year, after seeing the Darth vadar, I am glad I didn't. So I have been hunting high and low for the genuine trooper and Boba figures.

Hey Bish, it seems the Screamin kits are getting harder to find and when you do the prices seem higher and higher. I'm still trying to find Yoda, Luke and Han to finish off my collection.

Gamera, thanks for taking a look and appreciate the comments. Still have a quite a few things to improve on though.

Wolfhammer, sorry about the late post. I don,t recall the kit manufacturer, but if I recall Alfred Wong did the moldings for it. It was a nice kit, gave you three choices for the engines.

Okay, just found online the z-95 was from a company called Misc. Kits. Original huh? Box art says mk.II, but it is a mk I.
