This weekend I visited the 2005 NSW Scale Model Competition and Expo, hosted as usual by the Illawarra Plastic Modellers Association.

The two-day competition is open to all modellers, and is held in a large and bright Community Centre in Koonawarra, south of Wollongong and about 100km south of Sydney*.

The Expo was well attended and the standard of competition entries was very high, with a good variety of subject matter and scales, including aircraft, armour, ships, submarines, figures, cars and more. It was also nice to see displays of models and militaria in addition to the kits in competition.

A dozen traders were also on hand.

During May, I will be posting Galleries of some of the models seen on the competition tables over the weekend.

NSW is an abbreviation for New South Wales, an Australian state on the eastern side of the country. Sydney is the capital of the state of New South Wales.
