What a shame! I will just have missed this as I am planning to visit Girona a few days later!

I am booked to go and have a holiday in the area for a week. I will be taking several of my newly painted models along to the show.
Looking forward to meeting anyone else that is going, one of the most friendly shows around.

Hi Michael,

I hope you do well there! Enjoy!

Victor,
If you are definitely in Girona you really must visit their shop/workshop in the old town, highly recommended.

Hi Michael

Just visited Art Girona and met Joan and his father. Besides the small shop,
Joan brought me to his nearby production area where hundreds of figures were displayed
Needless to say, you can’t spend just a couple of hours there! I managed to stock up on
Some goodies. Really impressive place!!!

Rgds Victor

Victor,
I am glad you found and visited the shop.
Yes Joan and Pere are nice people, it only seems like yesterday I was there. Did you say to them that I had highly recommended visiting?
I managed to get a Bronze and a Silver award at the show and if I get time will post some of my entries at some point.
Michael

Dear Paco,

Thank you for sharing these wonderful pics of a great looking show. Very high quality entries!

Rgds Victor

Paco,again thank you for sharing this with us. Without doubt, this is one of the premier shows in Europe.

I thought the Old Bill Bus wedgie, the balloonists vignette & the Spanish Civil War vignette with the Red flag were incredible - thanks very much for posting, Paco.
