Big Scale Challenge

[Rich Chernosky]

My local hobby shop put on a "Big Scale Challenge".  Starting on Jan 2, we had til Mar 6 to finish and display a kit that was 1/16 scale or larger.  This was held at Barber Pole Hobbies located in Sayre Penna.  Thre of us modelers rose to the challenge and managed to complete 12 models.  Quite a feat considering the complexity of some large scale models. Below the pictures are more details.

All of the entries on display.

These were my entries. I was amazed at how much I was able to accomplish on such short notice. All of these were well under way and painted prior to the challenge so you might say I had a head start. The 1/12 Mclaren and 1/116 Mercedes were featured on this site in Under Glass. 

1/16 models completed by modeler Larry Schitel.  Everybody really liked the firebird except Larry.

The 1/8 scale Jaguear was done by hobby shop owner Loren Frantz. It was his first.  1/12 Corvette by Larry .  This was a fun project. Thanks for looking.
