This weekend was somewhat busy with Wavre model exhibition on Saturday AM and a militaria trade in Ciney on Sunday PM. AMC didn't had a dedicated table at Wavre's event so we only went to admire other's models. The picture gallery is updated with my pictures of some of the models. I went to Ciney hoping to find some interresting WWII IJN books but t
he only things I found were much too expensive: Hinomaru flag with 1942 marks for 190€, IJN officier katana for +1700^À and an Edo era samurai helmet for... 7000^À!!! Anyway I was first happy with an Ospey book of IJN aces of WWII for 5€ and even more lucky/happy with an English seller who has lots of pilot patches. I bought all Belgian Mirage V related patches and... he also had JASDF ones!!! Hamamatsu SAR, 30
3SQN and UF-104J were in stock. Good wekend after all (exception of my wallet's health ;-) )

Concerning the T-2 evolution I finished the painting (cannopies included) and decals work last week. I then remanufactured the antenna in thin plasticard and put them on place on the aircraft. I also detailed more of the main landing gear by adding the four doors actuators and glue them. The pannels lines and weathering still has to be done this evening.

Modelkits again

Wavre expo and Miyuki & Natsumi 1/6 anime garage kit have their pictures in the galleries and build history.

31st Rallye du Condroz-Huy took place last weekend. There were no more WRC cars or international drivers. Only regular A-group & N-groups along Super1600 cups. Anyway I went to "Wanzoul" special only on Sunday morning, taking pictures from Moha area. Here are the pictures

Wavre Air Models Club will organize their modeling exhibition and contest during the next weekend (13+14/11/2004) in Wavre's Cityhall (BE). It's also the occasion to visit the Air Component's 1st Wing museum, located in Beauvechain (near Wavre).
