Hello Folks,
I was this morning at the salon international de la maquette in Paris.
I must say that I was not happy because not so much place were made for figures and dioramas. In the display section, there was nearly no diorama ! Usually, there is a lot of small shop which sell 1/35 stuff at very intereting price. This year no one attended. The bourse des collectionneurs was really cheap. As usual a large part was dedicated to the train hobby and the plan section with demonstration of plane in flight was very impressive. the only good news was the introduction of the B1 bis by Tamyia, which presented sprues, tracks, and fig. Some pics are bad quality as every dispaly was beside glass. So enjoy anyway the pics!
Best,
Julien
Starting with B1 bis from tamyia

Thanks for sharing the pics Julien.
The Waterloo 1/72 diorama is most impressive, eventhough the details cannot be seen, the sheer size must have been some sight. Some very interesting work.
The amount of figures shown at the Swedish Open this year, was also well down ... a trend maybe? But on the other hand, the diorama content was well up, demanding a seperate room.
Its always nice to seepics from other countries. Cheers.

Hi Julien!

Very nice pictures! Thanks for sharing If you have more just "zip" them and send them via the Support Center. This way they will end in a nice "on display" feature and won't get lost in the "forum's jungle"...

Hi again Julien!

You will find the Support Center on the main page of the site. Just click on "ALL" at the top the current page, then search for the "ACTIONS" display bar and click on "SUBMISSIONS". You will be forwarded to the contribution page. To submit your Zipped file just use the "SUBMIT AS FILE" button. You will have to create an account to use the Support Center though... but of course it's free! :-)
