  7th International Painting Competition (2001)
7th International Painting Competition by the Antwerp Model Soldier Society, the contest tables   March 3th/4th 2001
Organization : Antwerp Model Soldier Society
Location : Centrum Oosterveld, Wilrijk-Antwerpen (Belgium)

This was the first time for me to visit this show.
I had picked up a flyer of this miniature figure show on another plastic scale model happening on an earlier date and I was pretty curious about what they had to offer.
I consider miniature figures still to be the most difficult subject to model.

This show is a yearly happening initiated by the Antwerp Model Soldier Society and it's all about figure modeling (that's right, no planes, no tanks, no cars...). Lots of miniature figures on show and a few trade stands.

I visited the event on both days to take as much pictures as I could and to admire some stunning models. Too bad there wasn't much light in the building, despite a lot of small spotlights standing on the tables. Most pictures aren't that good but I hope you can get an idea of the remarkable craftsmanship that went into these models.
