7mm Show at Bristol

[Nap]

Hi everyone

ThoughtvI woukd share some pictures of a show that the Brisyol branch of the British Model Solfier Society along with the South West Figure Modellers have been attending for the last couple of years .

Held at the University of a West of England on the last Sunday in January ( this year was the 27th ) it's a Railway modellers show with amazing layouts and also lots of demo's ...we always do one on figure painting ....always well received and much commented on

Those attending as Jimbo Evans , Bob Orr and Paul Lawday along with your scribe ....Jimbo was adding legs to a bust !! ...Bob was painting the smaller scales , all brought stuff along for the display .

My wife Carole Ann has a space with all her artwork which was also well received by the ladies who lost their husbands in amongst the trains !

It was extremely busy as you can see in the pictures with the public and trade including Squires ...ith a mass of stuff that modellers need

Here's the view at about 2pm ...



Demo's

Layouts

I'm kicking myself that I missed this . I had a good chat with the guy on the their stand at Bugle Call , even took a leaflet about the show to remind myself but ended up passing it onto a mate . Damn this old grey matter . It looks a great show maybe next year .
