Last weekend, the 26th annual Australian Model Expo was held. It was a 3 day event and attracted 638 competition entries (highest in 12 years) and 30-odd traders selling their wares. I entered 6 models and walked away with 2 Commended and a 3rd place in the Sci Fi Vehicles and Equipment Category.

You can read more about the event here (which also includes some video I took at the expo and 224 pictures) :

I'm already itching to go to next years event now! Only 12 months to go! :lol:

Thanks for the link/photos Scott. My own photo report will be up on Kitmaker later this week - resizing the pictures is taking some time
