Well - one of the advantages of a bank holiday weekend is to give time to wrestle with photobucket and to put up photos of the last Dublin Chapter meeting.... As mentioned above, Sean (35th scale) Mullarkey gave us a fascinating demo on weathering and washes. Here are some of the shots:- ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() And those in attendance were all gathered around, and listened intently (and asked some pertinent questions too). ![]() ![]() Many thanks, Sean Philip |

Apart from Sean's demo, there was the usual assemblage of kits, in boxes, as WIP's and finished articles. Unfortunately, I was so taken with Sean's demo and selling club shirts that I missed out on photographing Ken's trio of finished civil aircraft, and his WIP of an Aer Turas aircraft that he says he hopes to finish in time for Telford. You can see these, together with his little spitfire and his Japanese "Mt Fuji" decalled jet, in Pat's photo above. I also missed Ronan's WIP of a Corsair jet, which you can also see in Pat's photo. Other exhibits included these:- ![]() ![]() ![]() There was this group of soldiers in action on a base ![]() You might not realise how small that is, until you see a coin for scale:- ![]() Then there was this rather large Buffalo.... ![]() ![]() It will be getting green tinted windows soon - (it will, Sean, I promise!) And where would we be without another Orc creation from Pat:- ![]() Apparently this is part of a family of such Orcs, or a group (should we say a HORDE?) Then there were some targets... ![]() ![]() (Jack's was up on Sean's demo table getting some weathering..) and a new kit that Joe intends to make ![]() (not a stick or string in sight.....) And finally, this beautiful Bf 109 F that Gerry has been working on over the summer. (I wish I had taken more photos of this, it really is exquisite...) ![]() Some great stuff there, lads.

I'm glad people enjoyed the demo even if it felt a little rushed....I was very surprised afterwards to disciver I'd been demoing for 30 minutes. It felt like only 5 or 10 minutes! |

I'm no aeronautical engineer but that yoke looks as if it's missing at least 2-4 sticks !!! My tiny Panzer I in 1/72 looks far smarter on the shelf post weathering , thanks Sean . |

It was great to finally get to a meeting! Really enjoyed the demo. The A-7 is coming along nicely, I'm hoping to get a primer coat on it tonight and I got the correct shade of grey (a Mr Hobby colour) today in the post so I hope to have it done or at least nearly done in time for the next meeting. |
