Tony Wootson's First part of the Wonderfest 2023 Report

[Ant-Man2]

Hi,
I've just about completed putting the finishing touches in on the first part of my report on this year's (2023) Wonderfest show. Included are numerous video snippets which I took at the show on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

With this being my first major attempt at doing extensive video coverage at Wonderfest, I was bound to make some mistakes. One was a number is errors I made in describing people or things at the show. Then, there's those sideways video shots of the diorama category in the contest. And lastly, due to some severe lagging with the videos which were uploaded to my website's server, I decided to post them on YouTube. After following a suggestion from a modeling friend, (Steve M.) to clear out the cache in my browsers, the lagging magically disappeared.

Regardless of all of these miscues, my videos didn't turn out all that bad.

Well done, great!!!

Thank you! Much appreciated!

On a different note, I noticed your Gundam picture you use for your avatar, and am assuming that you're
into Gundams.

If so, where are three related article which I've also written, which you may be interested in checking out:

into Gundams.

Yes, surely I am...eh,eh...I almost know by memory episodes from Gundam series like Gundam 0079, Z Gundam, Unicorn Gundam, Gundam 0080 and Gundam 0083, Gundam 00, other than the GREAT Gundam Seed and Gundam Seed Destiny...eh,eh

Thank you very much for the links...!!!

And if you like Gundam models, here some links of some old scale model kits, and conversions, built by one of our associate modelers, Alessandro (that unfortunately died during the first period of the damn' COVID19, in 2020...) at the Club as follows...

You're welcome, guy.

Excellent work, as always. I enjoyed your videos. Just like with your pictures, you made my entry look good.

Hey Kenny,

Thanks, guy! I always aim to please, guy!
But honestly, though, with your entries, do I really have to try all that hard, to make your pieces look good???
(Something tells me they already look good, to begin with...Methinks he's being a tad bit humble here).

Wrt the second part of my report, I've still been working on editing the pictures I took at the show, and with 2 & 1/2
category of models left to edit, I really hope to start putting them into their respective slots on their pages soon.
