Well guys it looks like the tank museum at Bovington will be putting on a yearly model show again as from next year. they used to have one up until 2007 and it was an awesome show with both attractions inside and outside the museum. It was my first experience at a model show and i was blown away and have been modelling ever since the 2006 show. Sadly it all stopped for one reason or another. Talks have already been under way with the tank museum model club of which I am a member. I will keep you posted. If they get the time of year right this could turn into a mega show and could attract a lot of overseas modellers. Especially if it is armour orientated but to cater for all aspects of modelling as well.When i have attended it in the past, to see all those scale models among all that real armour was a sight for sore eyes.

That's great news, I'll be up for a visit. I've been there once but I was working and didn't have time or permission to have a look see.

Good to hear this is back on Andy. As you have pointed out, the old show had a certain atmosphere to it having models in front of the real thing. I hope they do not price themselves out of the market, like other shows seem to be doing, when it comes to how much they charge traders. The best shows are the ones that have a good range of traders.
