Regions and SIGs, Show Tables and Modelling Clubs
Many IPMS regions, Special Interest Groups (SIGs) individual members, associations and modelling clubs are happy to show their plastic and cardboard models built. There are hundreds of models on the modeling show. Many participants in the show are also actively working on a model. Of course you can also ask them questions. They would be gladly answering you! They are happy to explain the finer points of the hobby! All IPMS regions, Special Interest Groups (SIGs), individual members, associations and model building clubs compete for several prizes, like the “Best Group Display” or the “Pat Beentjes Award”.
Note that the show tables are NOT intended for sale.
