Our local Las Vegas HobbyTown sponsors a model show every year. The turn out is pretty good - this year there were over 100 models, including armor, sci-fi and car/bikes. I didn't take a lot of pictures but here are some of the models that I liked:

awesome 49 mercury:

Compliments! I really love your display concept for the RC211, mechs/frame in primer under the finished body with the full detail naked bike aside, very original and smart to me. BRAVO!

Fantastic also the old truck, I really love when artists narrow the distance between art&models, and so far the XWing.
