When it comes to competitions, I really don't think that has anything whatsoever to do with it. Now if you want someone leaned on....

I have read the threads. Wolfie, I do sympathise with your thoughts, but having run an annual model show for a couple of years, it really is a matter of what the show organisers can afford and do at local level, rather than what they would desire in most cases. Often, classes have to be consolidated at local shows due to the total number of models likely to appear on the table. Disappointed though, to hear that when you approached a show organiser that you got 'shrugged off' when you asked a question. My personal view is that if you run a show, having to give a proper answer and explanation when required to do so, even though it may be unpopular, simply goes with the territory!

Well, I've finally bought a Helicopter kit as well as some aftermarket decals and some PE (which I've done maybe twice before) and eventually I shall build it and enter it into a competition whereupon I expect to be roundly trounced into last place, my skills not being exceptional. An Italeri AH-64D which will be built as the Dutch Solo Apache. I'm now just wondering how I'll make it spit-out 1/72 scale flares......... ;D

Pushing the boundaries again Phil? Having seen your work at the Scottish Nationals, I think you'll give the pot hunters a run for their money.

Nick, we both know that pyrotechnics, open flames etc are a big no-no. Remember the chaps who lit a barbecue at a rather large show? How we laughed! ;D
