Today my little dio Gold in the Junkyard was entered in the 3rd National Twenot Meeting here in Holland. The standard of building was quite high and I was happy to see my Junkyard dio receive Silver wich was absolutely not bad as there was only one gold plate handed out to Eric Sikkema (demodelbouwer) and 6 silver and some bronze.
I`m very happy had a terrific day and bought a few nice things.
It`s funny to get an award that is about the same size as the thing it is credited for.


Twenot gave me a nice addition on my birthday presents.

Again thanks for the congratulations. I myself was very surprised with the silver as the opposition was really strong. Some really well built and painted pieces regardless wich scale where entered in the competition.

. Got some good feedback on my little dio and again I`m going to do some changes before I enter it at the Dutch Championships on the 6th of november. This bloody thing will probably never be finished. :-) :-) :-)

Ola Guys

Thanks for the congrats.

Ook jij Henk
Well Bsaically it is not about great additions but only minor ones. I picked the best out of the feedback I received on the Internet and saturday at the contest. I`m thinking of scratchbuilding a little crate with motorparts cramped between the legs of the Gun. Also one that I really liked was the broken bottle on the ground. I also want to add a rag or something like that on the steering wheel of the bike. All really small additions but big fun to do In my opinion.

Shain Thanks for the Compliment
