Pete "Pig" Fleischmann Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 First Off-Anthony...Congratulations my friend! Way to Go Any images yet of the winning models? I've seen some pictures of some beautiful work from the NATS...just wondering what came out on top? Regards, Pig Quote Link to post Share on other sites
volzj Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Nothing on the offical site, or even a list of the winners yet. Do any of you who attended at least have a list of who won what? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
M. Vann Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 From my understanding from the IPMS internet coordinator they should be up in the next few days. He was trying to work on it in the hotel, but the hotels server went down. I would give it a few days and I am pretty sure it will be up. Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites

thegoodsgt Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Was anyone here present at the awards ceremony to report on who won Best of Show? Someone deserves the recognition! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kelly Quirk Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Best of Show went to Bob Stienbrunn with his 1/192 USS Kidd. Peoples Choice went to an exquisite 1/72 B-2 bomber. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
german Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 hi all, that b-2 is from the same guy that presented the c130 last year? if it is, there is a pic on the ipms/sc site i think... cheers german Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Falcon053 Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Here I think is the Best of Show winner, the USS Kidd, forgive me if this is the wrong ship. I finally got home after a two day drive and now I'm trying to get pictures off to Phil. I tryed to send him a little bit of everything for him to post, but my computer and the wireless at the hotel I was staying at didn't want to talk to one another so I had to do it the old fashon way, dial-up! 30 minutes it took to send 5 pictures!!! There were so many great models there this year, I'm an aircraft nut, but I think the ships were the best I've ever seen. Anyway, I hope everybody liked what I got and Phi,l I QUIT!!! :( Duane "Spy" Kaiser Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IainM Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Thanks but try again. That's "The Sullivans" I don't know ships but I see the shamrock. Get some rest....I understand. These things can take a lot out of a person. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Philp Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Duane, I want to sincerely thank you and Pat for helping IPMS/SLC get pics of the contest out first. I just love doing that. I will get your other pics posted tonight and might have to try and meet up to get the CD from you before the meeting. These guys just don't have any patiance when it comes to seeing pics and making them wait til the end of the month would be cruel (course, now there are several sets of pics up to tide them over). Oh, and by the way, you can't quit, it ain't a paying job. (but I am hoping to be at OC next year so you can have a break). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Filak Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 hi all, that b-2 is from the same guy that presented the c130 last year? if it is, there is a pic on the ipms/sc site i think... cheers german Yes, the B-2 was built by John Vojtech, and was absolutely stunning.

redruffensore Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 Best of Show went to Bob Stienbrunn with his 1/192 USS Kidd. Now there's a name that goes way back! Glad to hear Bob is still at it. He is the modeler that got me to using brass tube for my prop shafts on my in-flight models. Loved all his old FSM articles. Nice pic of the model too Falcon.

thegoodsgt Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 IMHO, Bob was was the spark that ignited the resin cockpit and accessory aftermarket industry. What he was doing 20 years ago (i.e., scratchbuilding cockpits) is what we should be doing now! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

What he was doing 20 years ago (i.e., scratchbuilding cockpits) is what we should be doing now! Yep, I never use P/E or resin, if not already included with the kit and many times then may use the P/E as a template to cut the part from styrene sheet. I use styrene rod, tube, and sheet like the good ol' days. It's easier than dealing with P/E and more artistic than using someone else's resin. Get it all "cheap' too at the local model RR shop. But I will ruin my hobby with a Mike Grant decal every now and then. ;) Caz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
