Cheers for stopping by our table Wayne, a big thank you from the Norfolk Scale Model Group, based in Norwich. Sadly, I wasn't there, but would've loved to say hello - glad you had a great time 👌
I really miss shows I used to go to with my club and like to watch things like this just in case they turn up ...thanks for keeping the smiles going Wayne :)
Hello Wayne, great video mate, there are some fantastic models there but the one that blew my mind was the Dambuster Lancaster dropping the Upkeep mine, and the water was phenomenal at 5.50, Lee.
That was my Dalek, 2001 Space Clpper and Aries ib on the IPMS Farnborough table at 13:06 and my Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea flying sub at 7:26 on the Movies and TV SIG table - we won the silver prize for the best SIG table mainly I reckon because of the superb 2001 EVA Pod and the Aston Martin SB5!!! I love SMW, this was my 10th anniversary of attending but didn't win anything in the competition this year. Glad you enjoyed the show
Excellent job of videotaping the show. You pan your shots nice and slow. Numerous other people at the show pan around model to model and you don't get toes the model and they are moving to the next. So thank you for the great work. Really enjoyed watching.
Nice to see your video Wayne after Gary from Gary's Stuff (also on TH-cam) talked about the same event. Gary does plastic models, mainly military aircraft / vehicles.
Hi Wayne, I was there on the Saturday too and was totally blown away with the Lancaster in the competition zone! Keep up the good work and hopefully bump into you next year!!!!
Great video Wayne. I was at a small show this past weekend in my hometown. It was mostly figures with a smattering of sci-fi and military. I was blown away! Thanks for sharing. 😎🇨🇦
The stand with K.I.T.T, Reliant, Enterprise and Razor Quest is from my IPMS club I belong to in Brighton, they're also my friends builds. We usually attend Telford but couldn't make it this year.
Hey Wayne. So good of you to take the time to go and film that event. Even I was just amazed at the time and the attention to detail each one of the displays. As you know I was in the U.S Marine Corps and can really appreciate the military models. Also am a HUGE Starwars fan and enjoyed that as well. Thank you SO much Wayne I really appreciate that show.
That was a cool,presentation Wayne! Really nice clear camera work! Everything can be seen in fantastic detail! I always wish that I could go, but year on year I’m marooned at home- not marooned exactly, somethings always crop up or other circumstances prevent me from going! Also not having transport is a massive detriment! Oh well I can watch the videos and posts! Wish I was going to Airfix next week! Very Best!
Hi Wayne, regarding the judging, it takes several hours for all the entrants to enter their models (lots of entries for abroad). Then the judging starts…it is generally judged from past winners and if you are judging upwards of 50 models in a category then it’s going to take time. Having judged the 1/48 detailed class in the past for 10 years, you are under extreme pressure to be fair, open and transparent to every model entered…let alone being done in a timely manner. There really is no other way to judge because in the evening we are all socialising with friends from around the world. Also you have to remember that some of the models entered have taken years to build so to rush judging would be very unfair. The best way is to have a good look on the Sunday morning….because a weekend visit is really the only way to get everything in….we’ll almost.
Agreed as a judge in previous years its a high pressure situation and we are ALL volunteers there to enjoy the show so the time it takes out of our weekend is significant.
The pod from 2001 was amazing - I have a 1 meter long Discovery from 2001 that I 3d printed several years ago. Will have to see if I can find the files to print the pod now. Looks like it was a great show - thanks for sharing the video Wayne.
I went on Sunday, last time I visited was 2016. In 2016 it took an hour to get to the car park from joining the back of the queue, this year, drove straight in. There were no queue's to speak of, the number of traders was down probably 30% and the number of people there down by probably 50%. From that point of view, it was disappointing, but the standard of models and display were definitely better. The number of entries in the competition classes were also down. I entered a ship and there were at least 25 in the same class back then, this year I don't think there were even 20 ships entered. It was still worth it though, if you get a chance to go - GO!
Cracking snap shot of SMW 2022 caught a brief shot of the C130 Hercules on the 580 sig stand for which I'm a member, we had done a table dedicated to the 40th anniversary of the Falklands war on the dash of the herc was a magazine picture of Linda Lusardi
I'm primarily an aircraft modeller, but as soon as I saw the monoshawan on the cozmic stand 😍 😍😍 (I went with the smaller one, as I think it is time to expand my skill set 😁)
FWIW. MY Dad introduced me to Airfix in '59. I was 4. he guided me to paint black, the spikey exhausts on The Sunderland... We actually got the bomb racks sliding out! Happy Days! Been to Telford twice, Amazing experience, if only to be surrounded by hundreds of other 'Modellers' who are on the same page! [Edit: Your Camera work is Superb! Just the pan right speed, exposure spot on !]
Nice video Wayne! But if you think about it, it's pretty simple and logical why they don't let anyone into the competition area until the judging is finished. Firstly, how could the judges do their jobs properly with the public milling around (trust me with the crowds it's hard enough just to get a glimpse at some entries). Secondly, there's a shit ton of entries that they have to judge and even with multiple teams of judges covering all the classes it takes time just to look at the entries let alone come to a consensus decision if there's any disagreements. Lastly, they announce the winners on the Saturday as not every competitor will be there for both days and traditionally Saturday is the main day. At least that's my take on the matter.
Hi Wayne, glad you liked my Slave 1. I was fortunate to win 'Best Sci-fi model' with it. There is a a full build series on my TH-cam channel th-cam.com/users/StaplesandVine I hope you enjoy it. 🙂
Scale ModelWorld is a two-day event (plus build/set-up on the Friday, when it is not "open for business") : The Competition is just one aspect of the event - but this year consisted of well over 100 classes and had somewhere in the region of 1400 entries from literally all over the world, I understand. Models for the Competition may be entered from late Friday afternoon and then from 9am on the Saturday morning, until 11.30am, to give competitors (especially those travelling long distances or from abroad) as much time as possible to arrive with their entries. During this time on the Saturday morning, the Competition Area *IS* open to the public for viewing. The Competition Area then closes to everyone except the judges, from 11.45 to 15.00, for the judging process. With tens of thousands of attendees to the show, it would be almost impossible for the judges to do their work with SO many people milling about the competition tables, probably take longer and potentially risk damage to the models. So it's much more efficient to close off the Competition Area for as short a time as practical to do this. There's no other time it could be done. The Competition Area re-opens for general viewing at about 3pm Saturday, until the show closes at 6pm . It is then open for viewing all day on the Sunday - models must be left on display both days and not removed until about 3pm on the Sunday. During this time, the awards/commendations/winners/etc. are then displayed with the appropriate models, so that everyone can also see who/what has won, prior to the official "awards presentation ceremony", which is also held on the Sunday.
Yer I tried to get in at 10am and was turned away. I just wonder if the judging could be done later in the day as crowds drop off to give maximum exposure to the public. It works well at Wonderfest this way. Great that they are there on Sunday though. I couldn’t stay for the Sunday but will make sure I do next year. So much talent there. Thanks for the info though Gary. I was a Telford virgin this time but will know for next year
@@WorldofWayneUK If the competition area was closed by 10am, I would suspect that it may have been a decision taken out of some necessity "in the field", so to speak, which *could* have been possibly because the competition team were rushed off their feet - I know they were surprised with a late rush of competition entries to accommodate this year, which needed extra tables for them..... But as I said, doing the judging earlier rather than later means that for the majority of the viewing time, people can also see "who won what" - which is usually the first question everyone asks ! ;-) Yes, you really need to stay over - at least one night - to do the show justice for the whole 2 days - and wear comfortable shoes ! ;-)
This year the comp area was closed to all visitors who were not putting their stuff on the tables until after the judging was done (I'd put mine on out on Friday evening). I don't remember this happening in previous years so its obviously something the new comp secretary has instituted.
I'm curious about the Dambuster diorama. 1. The Lancaster has visible windows which they didn't have. 2. There are no squadron markings which it /did/ have. 3. It's flying over water but the explosion is /behind/, which makes no sense as the bomb (which can be seen) bounced on the dam's water so the aircraft is facing the wrong way and the dam is behind it. (It's not the bomb splash as the water is above the Lancaster so it's a huge under water explosion. 4. Each aircraft was told to wait until the water had settled between each bomb before making their run so the choppy water is wrong. Don't get me wrong the model is a great one and very skilled, but the modeller hasn't thought the composition through properly.
I believe this is showing one of the testing runs they did - the water splash is a bit of artistic licence I think as it hiding the support for the model. I built something like this in 1:72 some years back and used the beams from the lamps used to fix the altitude as the supports for the aircraft using transparent acrylic rods :)
The X Wing diorama must be based on Star Wars, as they had different markings (I think) in Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi didn't have any hangar scenes at all.
Do you know what this tell me about Europeans! THEY LOVE WAR! Their problem is they have a hard telling what belongs to them than what belongs to the next guy. They always want what others have so they have these armies.

Thank you Rich
Telford was a great show, it was nice to meet you in person aswell Wayne. Lee Dack 👌
You too Lee
I think i would be a kid in a sweet shop at Telford. lovely video and superb models. Thanks for showing us.
Cracking Vid! Loved the background music and lack of waffle.....a proper modellers vid that.....an hour of it would have been nice....❤️🤪
Lancaster ( bottom ) bomber. You killed me with that Wayne. Best laugh today by far. Amazing video.
Nice to see your video Wayne after Gary from Gary's Stuff (also on TH-cam) talked about the same event. Gary does plastic models, mainly military aircraft / vehicles.
I will be at Telford next year…how can you miss this…wow!
You would love it. 😍

I love IPMS shows. As a member I display some of my scratch built stuff at these shows.
Thanks for the insight into the show Wayne.
Can’t believe the dam buster model with the massive cotton ball at the back didnt even place. There was some amazing work.

I loved that

Hi wayne I once built the flying sub in 1966 and a gemini space craft from revell in 170s
Wish we had shows like this in the states . I know there is one but there should be more .
If you're into sci fi and fantasy models alot of sci fi/fantasy conventions have model contests along with art and costume contests.
The pod from 2001 was amazing - I have a 1 meter long Discovery from 2001 that I 3d printed several years ago. Will have to see if I can find the files to print the pod now.
Looks like it was a great show - thanks for sharing the video Wayne.
Thanks for showing the show unfortunately I rarely get to visit shows regards Fred 👌😎 ps best vid of Telford I’ve seen so far
Thanks Fred

Hi Wayne
It was great to meet you on Saturday, I hope you enjoyed your day🤗
It was great Marcus. Good meeting you too. I bet your knackard lol
Hey Marcus, are you any relation to Douglas Camfield, the best ever Director of Dr. Who?
@@WorldofWayneUK to right I am lol , I’ve got the day off to recover. Have a great time at Hornby and if you see Paramjit can you send him my regards.
@@TheDavidPoole I have heard the name mentioned a few times by my dad , I’m seeing him tonight so I’ll ask to confirm. 😊
now that was very cool thanks wayne
Fantastic video really enjoyed it. 👍
Awesome models water explosion was epic loved the Herculeas and Orangutan , what would Lou and Phil make of it.
Cracking snap shot of SMW 2022 caught a brief shot of the C130 Hercules on the 580 sig stand for which I'm a member, we had done a table dedicated to the 40th anniversary of the Falklands war on the dash of the herc was a magazine picture of Linda Lusardi
I actually took some close ups of that as my brother used to load them in Iraq. Unfortunately one of his Hercs got shot down.
Went on Sunday, but got to say its not the same as it used to be, but having said that, and watching your film, loads of stuff i missed!
Was that Vulcan the one that was underwater in Thunderball? It looks like it's resting on a seabed.
I'm primarily an aircraft modeller, but as soon as I saw the monoshawan on the cozmic stand 😍 😍😍
(I went with the smaller one, as I think it is time to expand my skill set 😁)
Amazing !!
The Dam busters omg wow
there are some pretty awesome models there
That Star Trek travel pod looks great.
FWIW. MY Dad introduced me to Airfix in '59. I was 4. he guided me to paint black, the spikey exhausts on The Sunderland... We actually got the bomb racks sliding out!
Happy Days! Been to Telford twice, Amazing experience, if only to be surrounded by hundreds of other 'Modellers' who are on the same page!
[Edit: Your Camera work is Superb! Just the pan right speed, exposure spot on !]
Thank you
Oh wow this looks great as i used to hav an ex workmate over at our LMUK Amptill who used to go 1of the militairy bases in Telford
Yer my dad was based at Cosford which is nearby
I was there mate , I kept an eye out for you but no luck , maybe next year :)
Ahhh maybe next year. I did but on social media where I was when I was having a spot of lunch 😊
Wow!
That’s an amazing show Wayne… did you buy anything to build?
Lol I was quite reserved. I may have bought a Polar Lights Enterprise as well as a Metropolis Maria
Nice video Wayne! But if you think about it, it's pretty simple and logical why they don't let anyone into the competition area until the judging is finished.

It’s just that the Wonderfest competition is far bigger then this and they do it after the first day while the room is closed.
bring back model mart. i never missed a show when that was going and it did make sourcing kits easier :)
Hi Wayne, glad you liked my Slave 1. I was fortunate to win 'Best Sci-fi model' with it. There is a a full build series on my TH-cam channel th-cam.com/users/StaplesandVine I hope you enjoy it. 🙂
Ahh excellent. I loved your model. I really wish I could have got closer but I am checking out your channel now.
@@WorldofWayneUK I have watched his build series and you will really enjoy it Wayne.
That's great @@WorldofWayneUK I hope you enjoyed the build. 🙂
Wow! 👍
looks a great show, some of those models are brilliant, did you meet anyone there wayne.

Might be wrong but wasn't Boba Fett's ship called Slave 1 ??
They used to let you in before they started judging years ago ,really annoying when you have traveled mile to have to miss the competition area.

It was also pointed out by Bob from the Chelmsford club that the port elevator should be somewhere in the splash as it was knocked off by the water.
@@50somethingbloke19 Not to mention the poor tail gunner getting a tad wet! :)

Wow £200 notes for some of them models! From Cosmic Scale Models
Boba Fett's ship, 4.47, was called Slave 1. Any decent modeller, could tell you that.
I was being sarcastic
Heey, czech republic shirts :)
Slave 1 yea i said it!
Not prepared to pay a booking fee for a ticket, mugs game.
4:34 Giger rhymes with 'eager'.
I knew it as soon as the words left my mouth lol
