Some really jaw dropping work and amazing models! I especially love seeing all the dioramas. Makes me want to build one, but I'd have to buy all the supplies and learn the techniques and I'd have no room for it when finished. Do you have anywhere we can view the pictures at a larger resolution?

Very cool! Thanks for throwing these up, Leon. Interesting bit is that I recognize several builds from your pics - they're from guys in my IPMS chapter.  Doesn't appear that there's much armor that isn't displayed on a base...at all. That "Pat Hand" radar vehicle is NEAT! Don't know who makes that one - must be a resin conversion I'm not aware of. |

These are fantastic Leon...thank you very much for taking the time to post them!!
It was a pleasure to finally meet face to face and even hang out relaxing afterwards!! An excellent memory of the show! Things went very successfully for us I think. I only wish we had time to break from the work and see the models and venders! You can attest to what was happening at the booth...Crazy!! LOL!! All good! I feel some folks had a great opportunity to see how things work up close and personal!!

Great pics Leon. Thanks for posting them. I saw some of those on Thursday when I stopped in, but the pics give me a better idea of what the rest of the show looked like.

Thanks for posting the pics Leon. T and I didn't have time to check out the model room, not even a peak through the door.

What hotel are you guys going to stay at?

Post by dupes on Aug 12, 2014 20:21:08 GMT -5
That's a good question. The one the convention is in is very nice (but fills up pretty rapidly). Last time I was there I stayed at one only about 100 yards up the street pretty inexpensively.

Would be cool to see you there Leon.
Marc, like T said, too busy brother. Happened to get my kits by catching them out the corner of my eye and grabbing them quick.

Thanks T,I checked out the Crown Plaza and there are still rooms available.Need to make a decision fast. Check out the Springhill Suites Danbury as well...easy walking distance. Haven't check prices. See if this link works? It's kinda lengthy.
