Modelmania 2005 & Space City Nationals

Some upcoming contest information for the SE Texas folks and surrounding areas. It's been awhile Houston's had a model contest/show, so this is one I'm looking forward to. Details below. You can pick up a flyer from Hobby Island. I'll be there with a few of my models. I'm thinking my 1/43 PM Pagani Zonda, Revell Civic Hatch, and some exotic. It'll be a good place for Houston-area AF members to meet up, or anyone else willing to make the drive.

Re: Modelmania 2005 & Space City Nationals- Houston, Texas

Can we just go there and just look around without entering a model?

Hey, I might could make that. We'll see how exams are. Thanks for the heads up!

Yes, visitor admission is $5. Putting a model in is $10 for the first, $2/additional. That's for the adult builders.

Just a friendly reminder to those in Houston, TX and the surrounding area about this weekend's show. I'm pumped about going and entering.

If you're planning on attending, let me know. I'd like to meet other AF'ers. In addition to myself, I know hirofkd will also be there.

Of course, I'll take lots of pics to share with the rest of you guys.

Contest came and went. It was a pretty good turnout, though there were a lot more of everything else than cars. Sadly, being the moron I am, I forgot my camera, so I leave it up to hirofkd to post pics.

Congrats to Hiro (hirofkd) for his 3rd place Ferrari Enzo and Alex (360spider) for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place wins in various categories with his Ferraris. His 250 Lusso is even more stunning in person.

There is a car-only contest on April 23rd in Manvel, TX (just south of Houston), and there is an overall contest (all types) in Austin, TX on April 30th. I'll be at the one in Austin (won't forget camera this time). I'd like to go to the Manvel contest, but I'll be out of town.

And for the Houston modelers, there is now a HobbyTown USA (finally). It is located at Hwy 6 South and W. Airport, just north of the Sugarland Airfield. I'm going to check it out today.
