Yeovil Model Show

First show of the year for Stonehenge modellers and a quick trip down the A303 to Yeovil on a very nice crisp morning. As usual we were set up in quick order and enjoying a cup of tea and sausage bap before the show opened. We were located again in the sports dome which offered excellent lighting and was nice and warm. 

This year there was another hall open with model exhibits and traders so that gave a total of three halls to look around. I again took some surplus kits to sell and managed to flog all but a couple. Good for the wallet and the ever increasing stash as well! Again it was great to meet and chat with many friends and enjoy a very pleasant atmosphere talking modelling bollocks. 

Plenty of visitors throughout the day and some great models on display too. I had a look around the trade stands but only came away with a book, some sanding sticks and a pot of paint. So another enjoyable day and a big thanks to the organisers for another cracking show.

M1117 Decals

Decals now on the model and I used a set from echelon, D356103. Very nice as well and the codes are even slightly misaligned which adds a bit more realism I think.

M1117 Figure Finished

Here's the figure all done. Nice and easy and he works very well in the turret. Now I must get some decals on the model.

M1117 Figure Painting

Making a start on the figure painting while I decide on what markings to use on the guardian. Nothing taxing here just nice and relaxing.
