Since we're only about 8 weeks out from the largest model show in the Northwest Corner, the IPMS-Seattle Spring Show, I thought I would raid my digital archives and post photos from the 07, 08, 09 and 10 shows to get everyone in the mood. If I'm posting too many shots, I'm sure that Robert will let me know. :D

I'll put them 5 to a posting so you can review them or not at your convenience. I only shoot the 1:72 ones, so all of the following should be in Our Scale.

2007 IPMS-Seattle Spring Show part 1

First off, Douglas O-35 (from a Contrail vac):

07 was a good year for multi props:

An Airfix Lanc. I don't believe that either the Hasegawa or Revell had been issued at this point:

2007 IPMS-Seattle Spring Show part 2

An AH-64. Not sure if there weren't many helicopters at this show or if they just didn't catch my attention.

The next four are from a collection of F-18s in special markings.

Revell Space Shuttle:

We had the gent who used to own Airframe vacs down from Vancouver. Sorry, I'm terrible with names. Taran or something similar? Anyway, he brought a large number of nice interwar civil types from various vac and resin sources. Easy to identify due to the bases. First, a Saro Cutty Sark:

Y'know, it probably makes more sense to just list the link to the Photobucket album for the 2007 Spring Show. So here it is:

2007 IPMS-Seattle Spring Show

I'll try to get the other 3 years loaded over the next couple of weeks. And on 4-9 of course I will be going to this year's version. Anyone who is local to Renton, WA is welcome to come along. Here is a direct link to the chapter's web page, where you can get all the details.
