Deere-est Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Zwollewood. The mecca for the model farmer and the farm modeller. Home of superb conversions, home of superb layouts. ... also home of the Biffy Hot Roll. .. . the All You Can Eat Chinese at "Wokstadion Zwolle" leading to a morning spent trying to erm. ... pass a breeze block!!! ZWOLLEWOOD The place to be for models, laughs and a few beers or if your name is Laley. . . a Herfst Bok or several!! So onwards with the photos and starting with some from the Hotel Lumen where Andy has booked rooms on our behalf for the last two years and the experience here is top notch. Should have got some of the rooms I guess but I'm sure it can be Googled. The Bar. The colours change, fading through a sequence of blues, greens, yellows, reds and so on. The other end of the bar area with iPads free to use/ These cubes are in the same sequence and are suspended in a shaft from the foyer to the top floor. Looking up from the foyer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted November 24, 2012 Author Share Posted November 24, 2012 The stunning gas fire in a word but it is far more of a feature than your average gas fire at ten feet long. The bar area during a Saturday night party. Complete with band. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted November 24, 2012 Author Share Posted November 24, 2012 The stadium to to the rear of the hotel looks to have had a full house for a home game on the Saturday night, a game of dominos anyone?! The beers of choice: The Boss. .... popping a move. . Popping a few nuts. .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted November 24, 2012 Author Share Posted November 24, 2012 Sean, handsome fellow. ... . I think he was actually tapping his foot to a Bruce Springsteen cover here.. David however was enjoying the aforementioned Grolsch Herfst Bok to worry about the music!! One more of the band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted November 24, 2012 Author Share Posted November 24, 2012 On to the show and this Fendt 930 graced the entrance to the Ijsselhallen. As you all already know, the model tractor for this years show is a Siku Fendt 930. Starting with some shots of the stands from various times of the show during the weekend.

CMB Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Sjonnie's set up is really mind-blowing, despite some of the machinery looking unfamiliar to me. I've never seen a 1:32 display so consistently detailed and your photos do them great justice Tris. In another life I will have this man's talent (and a lot more money to have the opportunity)!

Thanks Chris, I'm no Layley Bailey mind but I do me best. You're so right, the detail runs along more than twenty foot and not much if any is forgotten. Zwollewood! Brilliant :ha ha!: Fabulous pictures Tris, I must go next year. That hotel looks good too! It was a phrase I coined over the weekend, Barry and it stuck. Suits it too. Next there will be stars in the floor there!! Yeah you must go again buddy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
