Call for Papers – August
I will be putting together the magazine over the next week , hopefully ready to publish on Sunday. As mentioned at our July meeting, last month’s mag was a bit of a struggle due to the lack of contributions , hopefully we can do a bit better this month. It was clear that there were plenty of new models entered for the US competition and hopefully people will want to write about them, so give it a go. I don’t care how long or short the articles are , or in what form (wax tablets accepted). If you haven’t got a model to write about , how about tell us about what you have in the loft, or give us that killer tip, anything of interest would be appreciated.
Build a Model in a Day
This year’s “Build a Model in a Day” event will take place at Ampfield Village Hall on Sunday 5th September. The event is open as far as models are concerned, you can build what ever takes your fancy, adding any after market details if you see fit. The only rule is the kit must be unstarted at the beginning of the day.
We will make a start at 9 am and run to 5pm allowing time for judging any completed kits and announcing the winners.
Along with a coveted trophy there will be £25, £15 and £10 “Just Add imagination” vouchers for the 1st,2nd and 3rd placed entries.
As last year we ask for a £3 contribution per modeller to cover the cost of the hall hire.
We should be able to accommodate 25 modellers, we are intending to invite members of Poole Vikings, IPMS Salisbury and IPMS Portsmouth.
