G'day from W.A.

Today was the first day of WASMEx 2008 in Perth Western Australia.

Attendances were up 30% on last year, the number of entries in the comp was up 40% and the quality of the entries was up 50%. :D:D

In particular our juniors and intermediate modellers have excelled and are making some of us "old farts" feel very nervous:D

I've attached a few pics of some of the figures on display. Some of you may recognise a few of my pieces.;);) The fat bloke standing next to "Sprue Man" is me. :D:D:D That's Scott ("Khogor" on pF) standing behind the Historical Military Figure Society display table.

There's been a huge surge in interest in figures here in Perth lately, which is reflected in both the quality and quantity of figure models on display. There were also loads of aircraft,cars, AFV's , Sci Fi stuff and ships on display.

I'll post more pics tomorrow. Now I'm off to sleep so I can be up early for the Swap n' Sell tomorrow morning.
