Hi everyone. I just got back from my first contest. I entered "Brave Souls" in Omacon2004. It placed first in the dios category. I was very surprised that it also took Judges Grand award and Peoples Choice award. I never expected such results for my first show.
Cheers Kevin

Thanks again everyone for the words that have been said here. I told a few guys at the contest about Armorama so maybe we will get some more members from the midwest If it wasnt for this site I wouldnt be doing the kind of work that was put into Brave Souls, or for that matter the dio i am working on now. So I would like to thank all the members of this site, for any feed back or helpful tips or anything they have done to help a fellow modeler here at big "A" Thats what makes this site so special. also a special thanks to the editors and Jim for having such a site for all of us to get together and share what we know and to learn about things we dont.. Cheers to everyone. Kevin
