NordicCon 2013 Part 3: Ships, Figures and Cars

This year, I have gathered the ships, sci-fi, figures and some cars together into this last section. It is very hard to predict what modelers bring in under these categories and they tend to vary widely from classic military subjects to the latest sci-fi. Enjoy the variety!

There weren’t many ship contestants this year and WW1 seem to have dominated the headlines.

Among the larger scale ships (greater than 1/200th), there were a couple of interesting scratch-built vessels….

There were several submarines too…

I like this particular sub the best although it is fictional)! Great paint job with the Giant squid and wonderful lattice windows.
