Well - what a show! I think we can say IPMS is back.
Fistly huge thanks to all involved with the show. Exhibiting this year were Alastair Aird, Callum Andrews, Richard Dallimore, David Hart, Joe Moran, Huw Morgan, Terry Patrick (Saturday) Tim & Emma Young and Me.
We also gained three new members (including Callum's dad Ian who has come over to the dark side) and Alastair took Gold and silver in the competitions. As of this morning we are also featured on YouTube courtesy MsModeler - we'll try and add a link.
We had visitors and members from literally all over the world and I think I can say that our display truly reflected the sheer diversity of subject available to the 144 modeler, definitely the culmination of our modelling year. I can also report that several manufacturers of 144 goodies sought us out for suggestions / advice on future products.
Finally unbounded gratitude to Huw, David, Tim, Emma, Ian and Callum for staying on when they could have just gone home to help with the breakdown and lugging everything out to the cars. It takes around three hours to set the stand up on Friday but we have to have it all packed, dismantled and cleared in about 30 minutes on the Sunday.
Here's to '23!!
First few pictures attached - feel free to add more.
