There is no reason why we can't have a couple of competitions, I like Adz idea of guess the photo from a small part of it as well. | |

| | All Round Modeller | Mmm not always easy to think of a good idea for a competition but I would go along with the Model Photo bit and get an independant Judge to pick the winner.
At least the pics can cover all aspects of modelling as we do on here.
Regards......Mark. | |

| John Worth has made a member here, I'm sure he could judge it, although from his emails he's a man of few words, so he may not want to. | |
