Feb 21, 2010 – I attended the Model Expo 2010 in Petaluma California.  I have attended this model show for the last several years but this was the first year that I did not enter anything.  I actually haven't finished any models in the past year.  I was also fighting a cold – so this year I could leave earlier.  I was just looking forward to enjoying great model building and talking to friends from the model clubs I attend.  It ended up to be that and a lot more.  Following are some pictures that I took. 

This picture shows the models I won in the raffle.  I purchased $50.00 in raffle tickets.  I just used the same $50.00 that I won in the 2009 show from 1st place in the speed build contest.

 Left to right:

1. Dragon 1/35 Pz.Kpfw.IV Ausf.J mid production Aug-Sept 1944 Smart Kit.  This is really nice and cost $49.55 at Great Models

2. FineMolds 1/72 Millennium Falcon.  I believe this is out of production.  About 900 parts and quite rare from some reports.  This model looks absolutely fantastic!!

3. Dragon 1/350 USS Gearing DD-710 Smart Kit.  I this a very nice kit and is selling now at Great Models for $44.75

4. Down in front a little model by Starfix in Israel of the Northrop T-38 Talon in 1/72.  This is out of production and sells for $.99 to $3.25 on e-bay.

5. This is a 1/48 scale German Kubelwagon Type 82.  It's a finished model and really nice – except the windshield is broken off.  That's a simple fix.  I can't see who makes it other than the Philippines.

Here are some more pics of the Millennium Falcon:

Here's a photo of me holding the Millennium Falcon – this is a seriously big box!!!

I also bought a 1/48 scale model of the FM-1 Wildcat by Hobby Boss.  This is the jeep carrier version of the F-4F after the fleet carriers were converting to the F-6F.  This is a great model that I bought for only $8.00 – a bargan.  See the pic:

And now here are the other pics I took of the really fantastic models at this show…

The angel Gabriel, sent from the presence of God, announces to the young Mary her future role as the mother of the child Jesus.

Mary was highly favored of God and chosen to be the mother of Jesus Christ. Her humility, devotion, and strength stand as a model for all Christian disciples.

Mary visits her relative Elisabeth, who in her old age will also soon give birth to a miraculous child. The women rejoice together.
