This is an awesome show to attend. The gentleman who built the sailing ships also had a 1/35 USS Constitution fighting top from Meteor on display as well as a scratch build gun deck from the original Enterprise. I'll check around and see if anyone got photos of those. I was honored to receive a first place for my 1/700 IJN Kongo and a second place for my USS Baton Rouge. Both were a big surprise.

Thank you SO much for posting the pics, the slide show you posted was like an issue of Great models, some really nice stuff. Again thanks for posting, not many shows make it our way (NOrtheast US) it seems, and congrats on your own prizes!
