My second IPMS.

This was last week at Salt Lake, and it was blast; no regrets going. I wish I would have took some more pics but that is alright.

This was best small prop event. My Fw-190D is far left, but I didn’t win anything(they were too good).

Here is best small jet, mine are the Mig-21, F-18 and Me-262, but I still didn’t win.

Finally, I won something in an adult event, my Monogram B-29 took second place.

There were other fun things to do also, Great Models owner sold a bunch of new releases.

I would have loved to have bought the Raptor, but $80 no way.

The fun part; winning the medals. Last time I went home empty handed, but this time I got First,Second and Third in Junior Aircraft. First in Junior Armor, and Second in best large prop. I also got the special award for the best junior modeller.

I am really glad I went, I was interviewed on a TV network and learned a ton of techniques from the masters. Well that is it, thanks for looking.

Great job and congrats on all your wins.

raptordriver,

Great job on the B-29!

Good to see our fellow forum members taking home more than pictures from contests. Did you buy raffle tickets? Cheapest way to increase your stash and a way of getting into kits you may not think to purchase.

Howdy Drew,

Get outta here!?!?!?!? CONGRATULATIONS bud on a fine job and of course the wins!! So which aircraft did you receive the models for and you also entered the dark side, I mean armor?

OOh you even got your feet wet by entering an adult catrgory!! Drew, I am very impressed… Way to go!

Win or loose, it’s all about the fun, experience and most of all, meeting great people… By chance do you have a club near buy that you can join? I mean a local IMPS club?

Nice job on your builds especially your Mig! What kit is that? The B-29 is top notch

Love the pix… Again congrats!!

Flaps up,

ikey

Rangers Lead The Way

I don’t know squat about rules for these events, but you’re a junior and won in an adult catagorie? Sounds rightous. Good for you.

WOOHOO!!! Way to go Drew, I am very proud of you!

You’re gonna need help soon hauling all of your awards away from the show. Well done! [t$t]

Congratulations Andrew [Y].

Regards, Rick

Andrew great job!! I used to live in Utah and entered models in that contest. It is a big contest and you earn an award there. I walked away with some 3rd places and a second. I now live in Craig not too far from Vernal. Keep up the good work I would like to go and see the contest again in the future. Keep building and have fun!!!

I do not have a Ipms club nearby and the mig kit is a vintage Revell (horrible kit).

Thanks everyone![;)]
