Scale Modelworld 2013; the (Large Scale) Competition

[One-Oh-Four]

Sorry guys; no armour.... There were a total of 1400(!) models in competition this year. That meant that extra tables had to be placed in the competition area which had a bit of an adverse effect on the walkways. Consequently there wer more visitors this year. So it was quite a struggle to make the photos. So I limited myself on the Large Scale aircraft in competition. There were a few exceptions, which I'll show last. But they're VERY much worth your while to have a look at. Simply put: the best aircraft work was in 1/48th this year in my opinion! Look at those pics, forget their scale and be inspired! Cheers!
