The Ship Model Forum

Very nice result. I think Callaway made the diorama stand out but maybe that is just my prefence for cargo liners of that period. How was IPMS Antwerp this year?

Thanks, Pieter. Eventually I didn't get to adding the searchlight platform on Callaway's smoke stack. The event was just what I expected from it, a contest with attention to ship modelling (bar the lighting at that table, maybe they can arrange it closer to the entrance next time), many visitors, a bit labyrinthine if you wanted to meet certain clubs but also lots of occasions for buying. Pictures can be seen here: https://www.scalemates.com/newsfeed.php?thread=14376931 .

Looks like I nothing really changed since I last entered a model in competition in 2004 or 2005. There used to be an IPMS NL gang going there with an obligatory stop at the local frietkot. Will try and put it in my agenda for 2025.

Congratulations Steven!

Thanks Marijn!

Wonderful!

Hi, Steven,

congratulations on the prices won at Flanders, we have already spoken each other over there! Flanders seemed to us a little bit quieter than e.g. last year. Might has to do with the fact Lingen is up this weekend.

Cheers, Walter

Strange, I was logged out at the moment I submitted this message. Anyway, logged on again.

Thanks, everybody. And Walter, I had recognized you in that post. The difference when logged out, is that you have to resolve a captcha to be able to post your message.

I don't quite know how I missed the completion of this most excellent piece of work... but... BRAVO !!
