1. You become chartered by meeting the requirements through the DLC(director of local chapters). This includes all officers being IPMS members and at least 5 total current IPMS members. You fill out a form and a few and your chartered. I think the charter is for a year. 2. One benefit is that your chapter acquires the national insurance and can get a certificate which covers shows or club meetings if required. It also gives you access to the regional coordinator to help with things 3. If the member joins the chapter, the fills it out on recharter form. You can also get a list of IPMS members in your area with email addresses to help form or grow. We don't give phone numbers. Dave

I don't like their paints anymore so no effect for me. Using Tamiya and others Dave

I think the discussions on this thread are part of the PR problem. People discussing and arguing about a hobby most just want to have fun turns people away Dave

IPMS Three Rivers does this at Tricon also. Contact info is: Name: Bill Dedig Email: WEDJR@AOL.COM Dave

Very cool. I am working on the 1/32 kit from Zoukei Mura for an IPMS review and this is great for me to compare Dave

Can't lose either way. After Texas of course Dave

Giving their business away Dave

Love it. Love Reapers stuff Dave

Think of it this way- In 1-2-3 judging, you take the modelers best kit in that class and compare it to other modelers best kits. With no sweeps, a person who is outstanding can't sweep a category. In GSB, you are evaluating the models individually so if a person builds 25 1/48 scale aircraft , in theory, they could win 25 awards. Dave

That's cool. Love that episode too. Great work Dave

Haha! Cripes a Mighty it is- thanks for the help Dave

Hi Chris and Gil: I have the Tamiya 1/32 P-51D kit and it may/may not have a filet on the tail ( I do like those markings). Chris- love those too. And thanks for the offer. I'll dig into the kit tomorrow night Dave

Hi All: So I want to build a 1/32 P-51D and I want some scheme with invasion stripes. I am by no means a P-51 expert so does anyone have any recommendations of cool schemes with invasion stripes that I could paint it up as? Dave

All: There is 154 page thread of details at Large Scale Planes here: https://forum.largescaleplanes.com/index.php?/topic/52716-mh-60-academy-seahawk-135-scale/ Definitely a great read Looks like it was started in 2014 Dave

Me.......😁 Dave

I have bought from DMold and their products are great....when they are available. He has a "real" job and travels and makes parts when he has the time. When they are in stock, they are wornderful. But it is spotty due to his travel. Dave

Nicely done Dave

Sigh. This has been a long conversation so I went back and looked at the last time this was surveyed among chapters, members. Results were overwhelmingly AGAINST changing to any kind of GSB. So unless there has been a large shift in 15 years, this is a great conversation and will probably end right there, a conversation. And I build figures and routinely go through the GSB. Dave

Looking good Dave
