madtatt Posted Monday at 08:22 AM Author #73 Posted Monday at 08:22 AM Hello, dear model building friends. After almost a year, I’m opening my Falcon thread again. I want to give it a new try and take part in Germany’s largest plastic model show, “The Euro Model Expo”. As you may remember, I was unable to do this last year due to my wife’s serious illness. But she is now doing very well again and she wants me to finally enter the competition with my model. And so I started to dismantle the diorama into its individual parts and carefully pack them into transport boxes. The Falcon itself is a tight box in the truest sense of the word. The base plate does not cause any problems at all as it has a large, smooth surface, the floor is level, and therefore the foam does not slip. You had to be careful with the large top part. It’s damn heavy. But I carefully hoisted it into the box and packed it safely with all the foam for transport. And so it can start at the end of the month. EME here we come…. mtaylor, GrandpaPhil, Old Collingwood and 7 others 10 Greets Jölle. modellmarine
