Hey Rick, good to see ya over here! And congrats on the wins last week- well deserved! Cheers, Lynn

Hi all, It is with considerable regret that we've had to make this business decision, but it has proven to be necessary- we simply did not have anywhere near the sign-ups for the tours which would allow us to pay for the coaches required to take people to and from the sites. Our Convention Chairman, John Lent, addresses the situation in the following message: _______________________________________________________________________________ 2014 IPMS National Convention Guests I am writing to you today to inform you that we made the difficult decision to cancel the tours scheduled for August

For now, let me share one important contact point for all our prosepctive vendors: Mike Mattei is once again handling our vendor arrangements this year, and he can be reached at vendors@ipmsusa2014.com. If you want to reserve a table or six, please rea

I need to check in here more often... Jack, I got going on it like gangbusters, then around mid-September, all modeling activity came to a screeching halt when my wife went back to work after maternity leave. Our new daughter Evelynn has taken up most of my time since then, to the point that I only actually finished one model last year (down from 16+ the year before), but I desperately want to get back to the Bloch and get'er done... I really like it, and it will form a cornerstone of my 1/32 Battle of France collection. (No, that won't be a big collection, but I like to have some kind
