| MosquitoCon Contest April 8, 2006 The Crowd, the Vendors, the Humanity |
| DISCLAIMER The photos that appear here are of models that caught our inbred rheumy eyes, not necessarily the contest winners or "best" models in the contest. So if you are looking for your model and don't see it, it is because we were too hung over to take a picture of it. It's completely our fault. Please email us your photo and, if our Central Committee favors it, we will be happy to publish it here. Tank On ! |
| Great facility, guys. Tons of vendors selling great stuff - lots of cheap kits and weird, obscure stuff I hadn't seen in years like old 1/32 Monogram kits, old Heller planes, Roco minitanks, competent politicians, you name it. My favorite vendor was the guy selling "Model Contest Lip Balm" - just rub a little on your lips and nothing positive will come out of your mouth for hours. |
| Sorry about the lighting. Lots of great entries, even a bunch that could spin on their base. Since they were spinning I didn't get a photo of them. I liked the fact that there were no actual Waffen-SS uniforms in evidence. I mean, do what you want in the privacy of your own home.... |
| This woman was from the Homeland Security department. Here she's alerting the CIA about anyone who buys a Taliban Action Figure (Remote-Control Taxi sold separately) or fills out a club membership form. |
| If this dude doesn't find the kit he's looking for soon, I think someone's going to be sorry...... |
| The only woman we'll ever see in this hobby..... |
| If you like puzzling situations, this is better than the "Da Vinci Code". All those old kits smelling like a basement must mean something... |
