Well now with only three weeks to go I thought I'd ask who is going to Wonderfest this year? This will be my fourth and being retired now I can make the weekend much more leisurely as I won't have to rush back to Florida and work immediately after. In fact we will be heading to Austin, Texas to visit our older son after we leave. Also, if you are going are you attending either of the Friday classes, SciFi U or Kitbuilders U? I will be doing SciFi U for the third time and this year we are building a Moebius Ironman with lighting. I've always learned a lot from these and the price is very nice. I did Kitbuilders two years ago and it was very good as well but very expensive. Hope to see some of you there over the Memorial Day weekend.

This will be our third fest. Should be there early afternoon on Friday. Not going to do either of the classes on Friday this year... did SciFi U last year and really enjoyed it.

Looking forward to seeing you there!

This will be my 12th Wonderfest; and Thag and I usually get there around 3pm on Friday, so that lets out the classes that day.

Saturday AM, I'm teaching the Hardware demo class on scratch-building with epoxy putty from 10am - 11am.

We'll be arriving Thursday to set up for our new Friday class - Wonderfest Finishing School!

Too much month at the end of the money, I'm afraid, but I do plan to return before the end of my days.

Raise a glass for The Rat at the Lizard Lounge (or whatever name it now uses). I miss you guys (event's great, but the people are better).

Well so far I'm planning on arriving Thursday. But if my MS keeps acting up I will have to pass this year. But I hope not! I've already paid for Fridays class. And I have about 12 kits for the contest (even though I never win). I also plan on bringing my sculpted Green Slime kit that I made from balsa foam and Apoxie Sculpt. It down to 3 weeks now. But if I go money will be very tight!

Happy Aurora Trails!
Chinxy! :dude:

Full of great loonies ! :thumbsup:

Oh yea... I'll be there....packing resin !
I'll have all sorts of kits available...some real good show pricing too.

Fer instance... ( the short list )
Hulk figures
Paul figures
Some nifty Space Ghost stuff
A bunch of figure kits from my buddy Jason "Spyda" Adams

Not to mention...3 or 4 patterns of some very cool future kits.

Actually, I think that I should have purchased a table this year !
You can usually find me at the Meet and Greet as well as the Resinilluminati suite.
Hunt me down !

If you are serious, as of the beginning of this week, I know someone that was trying to sell their table for like $200.
