Dumfries Aviation Museum Military Vehicle Show models

Post by Will01Capri »

Got a table to be allowed to share some model builds we had laying around.

Not all the models had been touched up, some of them were to show stock models out the box to some of our other builds and custom vehicles.

It was very well received by both the public and the museum and we have been asked to display at some other shows.
We run a few demos outside aswell, the WIlly's Jeep & my Russian GAZ 34 6x6 went down very well with everyone of all ages.
We do it because we love models and it was so great to get soo many interesting people and getting people interested in the hobby.

I need to get on with a few custom builds now and different diorama scenes to help us display these models and more.

If you have a collection, why not share it with others. :)

What you did is great! Any chance to share the hobby with the public is a good thing. I displayed my 1/6 US collection for several years at the WWII National D-Day Museum in Bedford, VA, about 5 years ago. I would still be doing so except for my health failing.
Now that I am doing 1/16, I will try to do so there again.

It was great fun. It was actually nice to be able to charge up the batteries and play with them for once haha! Always soo busy building and designing parts for them i seem to forget to actually have a play.
The GAZ34 ran like a dream, really pleased with that & also my Willys Jeep.
The Panzer IV broke down, but i found it was the LI-ION battery just dying. So need to get replacement.

I want to get a big impact model, so i may venture into building 1x 1/6 vehicle like a deuce or similar. Wayne you have alot to answer for hahahahaaha
