The 25th Australian Model Expo was held last weekend (28th and 29th of June) in Melbourne, Australia. This year there were well over 580 entries in the Australian Open Plastic and Scale Model Championships, and 8 of those just happened to be mine.

Of those 8 entries, I am proud to say that I received 4 Commendations, each for my Zeta Gundam, Guncannon vs Zaku II, Anti-MS Squad and the T-Rex Skeleton. Also, I am even more proud to announce that my Tachikoma took out 1st place in the Sci Fi category, my Gundam MK II took 3rd in the same category and my Velociraptor took out 2nd prize in the Miscellaneous category!

When I was there I took a ton of photos and have put them up on my site for everyone to check out what excellent modeling talent we have over here in the land down under.

Hey Scott thats great! i didnt see any of your entries though, all i saw was tanks and planes. But well done! its a great expo isnt it.

did you go to the swap and sell? i picked up real good bargains.

Looks like a terrific show! I'm disappointed I missed this year's show, but can't wait for the 2009 show. Any idea on a date yet?
