Cincinnati Scale Modelers Contest and Swap 2014

Post by Axis Nightmare » Sat Oct 11, 2014 6:05 pm

Saturday October 11, 20014 was the Cincinnati Scale Modelers Club annual event. It is one of the finest in the country. It takes place each fall around this time. Here are some pictures of just a few of the entrees.


Nice 1/32 FW-190F
Image


1/48 scale B-25G. Note only two nose guns and no side pack .50s. Top turret is to the rear and no waist guns. The quick visual recognition difference between the G and H.
Image


This plane was huge! 1/33 scale and scratch built.
Image


My favorite tank, the great Tiger killer, the Sherman Firefly in 1/35
Image


German armor in 1/35 was well represented.
Image


Quite an ominous lineup....
Image


Some nice small dioramas were present
Image

Image


Arado Floatplane in 1/32 Scale. A lot of work in this one.
Image


Rather obscure WWI plane from Wingnuts. A Salmson 2-A2.
Image


Nicely done USS Independence.
Image


This club keeps a rotating display at our Tri-State Warbird Museum for public viewing.

What makes the P-51 Mustang so special?

Wow, I love the float plane. All the models are great. This weekend was the Miniatures Show. Some really fantastic work. In a few weeks there's a similar show close to home put on by the Butch O'Hare Model Club. It's amazing the talent out there.

I love all models particularly the Firefly & Arado Floatplane. I plan to build the Arado in future but don't think I could do that good of a job.
