Yes Karl, you're 50% right

If everyone thought alike, modeling events would be... empty
On the other side, I don't mind driving 200 km with my models here in Portugal, but traveling abroad, having to pass several security checks, with boxes with writings "THIS SIDE UP - PLEASE" and tilting my boxes just for fun to go on the x-ray machine it is not fun, at all.
Even with all this, I would do it again! The feedback I got from visitors has worth the effort and even the extra hours on the workbench

Hey Rui, in retrospect, would it have been worth taking Euro Rail to Britain via the Chunnel and having your gems in your lap the whole time?

Hi Neil

Not with this one
But I got a Bronze on the 700 ships category




In which case I would have liked to seen what beat you!

But congrats on the Bronze
