As I said earlier, I am back from the LSR convention in San Antonio. After last year's Best of Show Novice, I really wanted to see how I performed against the pro's. Entering the contest room, I was not disappointed, there were several models there and each was world class.I entered 3 categories this year, displays, passenger cars, and maintenance of way. When it was all said and done, I placed first in displays, first in passenger, best overall kit, second in maintenance of way, participation award (for most overall points) and best of all, show most popular for the passenger car. I was elated!....
I have posted pictures of the blacksmith car and passenger car here during the build so I will not show them again.My display this year was a huge project, it consisted of 3 Sierra West Kits of which I kit bashed the Eureka Engine House and Logging and Tractor Repair Sheds. The wood cutters kits sits on the side of the diorama. Each of these are complete with full interior and custom lighting. Here are a few shots...
