I never got round to posting any of my other 2008 show snaps. So, here is a very slow start. These will come in day order, or thereabouts. Welcome to Tuesday, 15th July.

You're welcome to provide the captions....I need educashun. BTW, I know these are motorcycles.

This is also a motorcycle, I believe.

This is the wonderful Enzo Maio, illustrator and amazing character. He does the model box art for Revell amongst others. I snapped him painting the KV1 and have pix of the finished work, but I cannot reproduce them for copyright reasons. I believe the KV1 is hitting the shelves this spring, so you saw the box art here first.

Harry met him, he let him take some close up photos of his work on the condition that he didn't publish them anywhere..

Keep the snaps coming :tup::

The British road run was disappointing at first glance, but there were some great lorries out there.

Thats right, Enzo was great - he let us snap him at all stages - I really admire him. He is one of the most loveable characters of Beltring. I've got some slides he took of me (he don't do digital nonsense!)
and he also gave me some copy prints of some of his work which I treasure - even though they are just copies on a4 plain paper.

Hi Snapper,

I am waiting with anticipation to see my wagon, it was lined up there, but not seen a glimpse so far :-(

Harry, James and I were bouncing around in the back of a jeep taking snaps. It was an entertaining experience, but we managed a few decent pix, I hope. This one has a bit of atmosphere.

Hi Richard,

I took a few of this scene and the best ones without the car in the distance were blurred. I hope this fits the bill. Someone cleverer in the black arts of Fotoshop than I could probably get rid of the roundabout.
I'll see if I can pursuade a colleague to do it for me.

Will do. I'm assuming this is Richard's Bedford.

:tup:: Thanks Mark,

That is a good one, I remember being held up prior to that photo, and we then had a clear run, so were not hanging around at that point :)

I'm no expert but is that any good?

That is correct, it was one of the ones sold to collectors by the Swiss Government a few years ago. It belongs to my friend. here is another picture.

Nice to see it kept in the dry.

Someone will have to explain to me how to spot a Swiss one....
