Re: Scale Model Build Contest

I have some left over wood from my model car contest. I make my own awards, its just too expensive to have a trophy shop do it. How many places do you want to go back?

Re: Scale Model Build Contest

Ive never seen tanks, bags and ect so i assume it comes with the model, they make their own or from something else, If you want custom parts you can use http://www.thepartsbox.com
http://www.scaledreams.com
http://www.plastic-models.com
http://www.modelexpress.net
http://www.americansatco.com
