A worthwhile afternoon at Sky Manor

Postby flyboy 28 » Sun Jun 24, 2007 2:41 pm

I headed to Sky Manor for the lunchtime "rush". We had some interesting visitors. A lot of the shots came out very badly, for which I'm very disappointed. Can't do anything about it now though. :P

Nice selection of visitors. Any more shots of the first one? I had no idea what it was without looking it up. Can't say I've ever seen one before.

First one is a Varga Kachina, which was based on the Morrisey Nifty, if I remember right. Good set as always, James...
