Most readers have no idea who's who in the photo anyway as it's not captioned, so you're all still anonymous :P

That's all well and good, but they aren't pointing at Mr Ork himself ;)

Never mind, I'm pretty Ork-obsessed at present - getting fed-up with the tardiness of resin suppliers, nowt except pylons and tanks for the 1:32 Ork so far.

It's nice to see that you were advertising http://www.fightercontrol.co.uk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; on your table. :whistle:

I'm not sure what you mean but I think this thread should be in here :- viewforum.php?f=108" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

It is clearly an advertisement for your own website.

ok i think there has been some confusion, this was and is a modelling show report, as per FC modeling show report threads (although i may have placed it incorectly sorry) not an advertisement of any kind, im sorry if anyone took it that way, i spoke to many many FC members over the 2 days and i know we have spoke about it on other threads, FC members we able to add modles to the stand, and 2 have done

we hope to continue our atendance at NAM next year and i would encourage FC members to attend ASFC members and are welcome to put models on our display as other have this year

Is the Spitfire a Red Arrow 'what if' or is that the proper colour

Looks nice either way :thumb:

The Spit and Hurri are `red arrow` whifs, as is the 74 Sqn Hawk, and also the spit on a stick is schemed like an X-wing fighter from Star Wars.
