Title: Trophy preview
Post by: Scott Richlen on July 21, 2015, 06:34:44 AM
Last year NVCL started a new tradition of awarding hand-made trophies to the 1st Place winners at our contest in September.  I know that Phil Spillman liked the one he won which I had made.  So, I've made another.  But different...

Here's what happens when the gremlins get to you.  And anyone who wins a 1st place has had to have had this experience a few times....

Some people have way too much free time on their hands.
That is one crazy looking trophy. Everyone here would be proud to have that one.

You know that Tim has already dusted off a spot on his mantle for it.  I'll have to practice extra hard and then make sure that Jack R is one of our judges  ;D

Hi Scott, You're very right about my pride in your last year's effort! I have been competing with models since 1963 AND YOUR'S IS THE ONLY ONE MY HAS ALLOWED IN OUR LIVING ROOM! I look up at it from time to time and remember Old Time Stunt with my Humongous! What a dream flyer that thing is! Happy times just keep hanging around!
