Sorry to revive such an old thread, but I had to share. I entered this model in the IPMS Region IV Show in Dayton, Ohio today. It won a Bronze, and it got a few positive comments. I'm proud of my little creation.

Thanks Mississippivol,

It's nice to get a little pat on the back, and to know that some people enjoyed my model.

Oh yeah, there were some beautiful models at that show. Unfortunately, I didn't see who received first or second, but everything on the table was gorgeous. It must've been difficult for the judges.
