Poor amateur photos, but a lot of 'em

Post by steelrose »

They're bad, but there's a lot of them and they're posted fast. Hope they tide you over until the pros post. 600+ here:

For me the star of the show was the Foundation FTL ship. That alone was worth the trip. I also really liked the USS Mazierski, blue cargo ship with solar panels, + shaped ship with round cockpit with holo display, Gunstar, Oblivion drone. Great paintjob on the Seaquest DSV. Too many others deserve recognition for me to list, tons of quality work this year.

I'm a ship nerd and didn't get all of the figures, sorry. But my favorites were the large dragon, full scale squatting demon, Godzilla-1 boat chase, and Maltese Falcon scene with black and white shadows paint job. There was also a lot of good dinosaur work.

I wasn't expecting a diorama of Dr. Frasier Crane's Seattle apartment, but it was superb.

Noice!! Very cool models all around. As usual, Admiral Buck makes some amazing ships. That Ajax from Buck Rogers looks outstanding! And yes, that Foundation ship is pretty cool looking.
Far too many to note, honestly. Looks like it was a great show.
Thank you for the pics.

Enjoyed some of the fun things people included, for instance; the ATST on skis with a cat scratching top of one ski; the Rebel pilot fishing while Y-wing is serviced; the SS Minnow. :D

thanks for the pics!

The Foundation ship really stood out for me. As did the larger scale Yamato.

I found a very good and long video about the great entries on Youtube:

And there's also another video on Youtube about the Dealers' Room there...very good, and a lot of kits (there is also StarShip Modeler stand, a must-see, of course!!!)!!!
