This is the Wellington Scale Model expo you're referring to? I had my shops sales stand there- I displayed the 1/32 P-51 Mustang factory diorama there. Did you attend? I haven't decided if I'll attend next year, but will certainly give it consideration.

If you ever come to Oshkosh AirVenture, look me up. I'm almost always there.

What an awesome place for an aviation enthusiast to live- you lucky man. I spent many years as a pilot, and one of my bucket list things to do is to fly into Oshkosh, their sequencing looks incredible. Hopefully one day I get the chance to do so.

I wasn't aware of it. Thanks for showing me. We used to sell the Cubic fun version at the shop, but i'm not sure it's still available.

this one is a true print out and build card model. take a look at that site loads of historic buildings as well as other models and they are all freebies, schreiber is also a good site if you want to buy printed models famous buildings. have fun

Yes, that's the one...usually the only one I get to as I haven't had much free time the last few years...

Don't recall the diorama from the 2018 show but know it well from pix online at the time...remember your stand though and hope to see you at the next one...maybe with some commercial paper models...?

Stocking paper models is heavily on my mind. I've approached Fentens about wholesale pricing, and they have suggested they will supply me. It'll happen, it's just a matter of when. I'm sure given 1/2 a chance I will have a trade stand at the expo- if invited :-)
