Model Expo – June 6th – 8th

Model Expo has grown and developed into the preeminent static modelling show and competition in Australia, and the Southern Hemisphere; attracting visitors and competitors nationally and internationally. We will be there with members busily working away putting the final touches to kits for our themed display and selecting kits to put  in as part of our general display.

This will be our first display for Warbirds AMG and we will be including a selection of members Warbirds and Warmachines to demonstrate our non-aviation military modelling skills.

For all details of times, costs, competition categories etc, please click on the Expo flyer or visit the Model Expo website for further details.

Stephen Portelli latest build – HE-51

Stephen has sent us his completed build of the 1/48 Classic Airframes Heinkel He-51. The kit itself is somewhat for an experienced modeller as there were some fit issues getting the cockpit to close and the outboard top wing strut location is too far outboard, so had to be moved in.  On a plus side the decals were great and as can be seen in the images the finish is very nice indeed.

Thanks Stephen for your images and cant wait to see more.
