1/72 Air Show – 2007

This was the second year running of the 1/72 Air Show held at Hobby HQ on 10 and 11 November 2007.

The 1/72 Air Show is basically a showcase of 1/72 scale model aircrafts and any type and genre. To make things more interesting, a mock airport was built to house all the aircrafts. The aircrafts on show were contributed by local modelers who are passionate about their hobby.

Beside serving as an avenue for modelers to showcase their precious models, the air show also aims to generate more interest in plastic modeling among the general public.

These photos show some of the model aircraft that took part in the air show. I personally enjoyed the air show plus the free food and I am hoping for a bigger and better one next year and hopefully I will be able to contribute some exhibits.

All photos were taken with my Canon 400D + 18-55mm kit lens.

Malaysia BAKUC 2007

This year BAKUC was held from 23 to 28 October, 2007 at Sungai Wang Plaza. Like last year I was at the venue to snap pictures of the competition entries. Frankly speaking, I think the entries for this year BAKUC were not as impressive as last year. Except for a handful of models that really stands out, the rest are just of so-so quality.

Again, the entry by one of Malaysia’s finest modeler, Erix, was impressive as ever. In case you are wondering which one it is, it is the orange colored S-Gundam (the first two pictures).

Go ahead and have a look at these pictures and see which one you like best. Be warned, there are 57 pictures in this post.

All pictures were taken with my brand spanking new Canon EOS 400D.
