Butch O'Hare IPMS Model Contest

[Exotics_Builder]

I am behind in cleaning up and posting pictures. This event happened November 12. There were many interesting and well detailed models there. As usual, non-military car models were less than other categories.

Of note were the dioramas, including one of an auto junk yard. An interesting approach on the junkyard was that some of the effects were simply color printed on paper with a 3D effect in the art work. Check the trailer in the junkyard to see what I mean.

There also was considerable use of electronics for sound effects and lighting, including a pirate ship with synchronized LED’s to simulate cannons firing. A Low Eider display had what looked like an IPOD Nano with a playback that simulated a flat screen TV display.

The Lake Michigan Model Car Club did its annual display, with several members bringing in their work. Our President brought his famous (or perhaps infamous) excrement mobile.

Anyway, here are a few teaser pictures and a link to the album.
