A great day at Figure World

[garyhiggins]

Hi Graham,
I had a great time also as did all our lads. It was really nice to meet you and thanks for the tip off about the paint, I got myself all the colours I needed. Thanks to Gary for his great demo, very inspiring. Also to everyone else I met old and new and a massive thumbs up to all the organisers who put on great event.
When I get sorted, I will post all the photo's I have taken, some great work on show and something to aspire to.
cheers
Richie

Thanks Richie, I'm glad you found it useful.
Best wishes, Gary.

My Wallet had to go and lie down in a darkened room, the doctor says it's suffering from nervous shock, but it might recover in time for next year's Figure World.

I have seen your posts looking for this Badger. I am sure if anyone had a lead on it they would have said. Sorry but I have no info on where you can get it.

I can understand how it feels Gary , I mean the price of Tea was a massive amount ..60p ..at least it has over a month to recover before ...Euro !!!!

[Graham]

60p for tea? I was charged a massive 80p for coffee .

Sorry but should have said a huge thanks to all who manned the refreshments stall. The coffee, and chunky Kit Kat, were much needed and appreciated.

I'll go to Euro and come out with an overdraft, followed by an ear bashing.

Happened to me last year but then I had to fly over for it too... My excuse at least

Fw is clearly and excellent show.

Cheers

Thanks for your kind word and advice Malcolm, much appreciated

I think I made history yesterday, I'm the first person to leave FigureWorld with a kit of a tank.
A good friend "Mike Hussey" very kindly gave it to me.
That's going to be quite a challenge to make, but one I intend to do, and I also want to make one of those wingy things one day.
