Yes, I went. And it was exceedingly disappointing. very few models; very few vendors. I had a car problem and arrived too late to enter models. Roger T from Pt Townsend brought a pair of his gorgeous 1/350 ships and the other four were large scale models of the nature of ITC Oregon and humongous USS Missouri. (Also, very few aircraft, armor & cars)

Next big attraction in these parts is IPMS Seattle Spring Show on 12 April in Renton.
On the workbench:
1/700 HMS Swiftsure - Combrig
1/700 CGC Chelan - White Ensign
1/700 HMCS Forrest Hill - HP
1/700 Ulsan - Kobo Hiryu
--and dozens more

Agreed....the pickings on the sales tables were equally depressing. That 1/96 Missouri must come with it's own trailer, a little rigging on it would have been welcome IMO.

Renton it is....maybe someone can post a flyer link.......

Ill be there. Hopefully I can finish my Portland and CV-6, but most likely only the former. Will probably enter a few autos as well. Last year was a blast!

Lots of unfinished model ships + attention issues = A busy slipway where nothing gets done!
