[WWI] California Aces!

[J.R. Boye]

    Alright, alright, here are my photos from Silverwings.
    I fully agree with everyone else: I had a great time meeting some great modelers and some really fine people.
    Dennis U. entered about 10 airplanes in 1/72 and I entered 3. Dennis came away with first, second and third so he must have paid the judges handsomely :-) Actually, his work is great and he deserves congratulations. He is also a great promoter of the hobby.
    I did manage a first in soft-skin vehicles for my Ford ambulance, though, so I had some consolation...

      The "Aces" photo shows standing, left to right:  Alex Limon, Tom Morgan, Bud Pearson, Gabe Limon, Mike Vice. Sitting are Dennis Ugulano and J.R. Boye.

      The first table display photo shows a collection of Dennis' tripes supplemented by one of J.R.'s and shadowed by the nearly completed Staaken (Aviatik) that Dennis is close to completing.

    The second display shot shows 1/48 planes by Gabe and Bud, plus some Wings of War game pieces just for fun.


                  Looking forward to next year!

                                                                                          J.R. Boye
