Vancouver IPMS Show Pictures

I had a great time at the show and walked away from the vendor area fully loaded down. It was a pleasure meeting up with some fellow FSM forum members and the displays were fantastic!!! [tup][tup][tup]

Here are a few photos that I have been able to upload so far. I’ll try to get the rest uploaded later this week and post a link to my page so that I don’t jam up the thread with photo’s. I took around 140 photos!!! [:O]

Some stunning 1/32 aircraft

Some of you might recognize this one from Drew

1/48 aircraft

1/72 Aircraft

This one is for Mike [;)]

a couple of mine (took first place in their category)

I’ll throw in a few targets

A ouple of autos that caught my eye, especially the Challenger. An older brother had the exact same car in real life.

Beautiful Uboat

And one of my favorites from the show

Ha! I took more pix than you! 224 (or some where around that).

Did you enter any thing??

[:)]

Dave,

Thanks for posting the pics, it was like I was there! Sorry I couldn’t go, but SWMBO pointed out that it was her mother’s 80th birthday, and we were hosting the party. Perhaps next year?

Great photos Dave! Your models are definately worthy of your rewards, stunning! Love that Opel Blitz truck, very convincing weathering. WHat is that NMF bird with the contra rotating props? It has a P-51 feel about it, yet VERY different.

Wow Dave. Looks like a tremendous show! Congrats on your 1st place entries! Well deserved. Who from FSM did you get to meet?

Stick Man, The Me 410 and the Me 109 in the picks were mine. I entered an Ar 234 as well. How about you? Did you bring anything to the show? Post some pics on this thread if you want to.

Bill, told my wife not to book anything on Thanksgiving Saturday from now on. I’m hooked. [:D]

Frank, that model you are asking about is the XP-75. I don’t know any of the history behind it.

Mucker, they had some free magazines set up and a subscription draw but I never saw anyone actually at the booth when I was there. I guess I was too distracted by all the great models on display. [:P]

I’ll post post link to my Phota bucket page with my pics from the show.

I entered a sherman in the Junior catagory and won fist.

I liked your builds!

[:)]

Heres a link to my photobucket page of the show I only have 150 of my pix on it because it won’t let me upload them all. http://s282.photobucket.com/albums/kk245/stickman94/IMPS%20Vancouver%202008/?start=all

The first pic is of my build.

Hey Stickman, I tried to check your site and I need your password to get in. I believe you can share it so that a password is not needed but I have never done that. Be aware that if you give out your password we’ll be able to see all of your pics that you may have in other folders. [;)]

I’ll give photobucket share thing a go. the link is here…

IPMS Vancouver

… and the guest password is IPMS08

EDIT: Finally got it to work so I’ll try to upload the rest of the pics tonight or tomorrow.

Stickman, you have to go into account options and choose a guest password. By using the guest password no one can delete or alter your files. Like I said though, all of your files in other folders will be visible so take out those pictures of you and your girl smooching first! [;)]

Ok i went to the options and set a guest password IMPS08 it’s all capitals and it’s one word.

Razer… I could’nt log on to yur photobucket.

[:)]

Stickman, I noticed you’ve switched the “M” and the “P” in your password for IPMS08. Maybe you just didn’t notice when you tried to get into mine because I can log in just fine. I still haven’t uploaded my other pics yet though. Maybe tonight.

BTW, congradulations on taking first with your Sherman. That’s one rusty bucket of metal. Well done. [tup][tup][tup]

Oops ya thats also y I could’nt log into yours I typed it wrong!! so I did log on now nice pix.

I’ll swith PB guset passward now.

[:)]

Thanks Darren.

I’ve now uploaded all my photos and have put links in the aircraft and armor forums as well.

Dave Thanks for posting those pics, there are some great looking builds looks like it was a good show.

Cheers

Bear

Dave- I took a look at your album, and to gather first place finishes with that kind of competition speaks volumes about your abilities. Congratulations, well done my friend! [bow]
