LATEST NEWS

Good morning Stuart, Terry, and Geoff! Continuing to thoroughly enjoy each episode. Hope to see some of you at IPMS Nats in August.

If you would be so kind as to add SilverCon to your contest announcement rotation, I would appreciate that.

On May 17th we’ll be hosting SilverCon 2025, with a theme of “The Vietnam War”. The flyer is attached with the details, but here they are as text. Thanks for helping us get the word out to all within range of Sacramento (We’re in Northern CA, in the Central Valley between San Francisco and Lake Tahoe)!

Details:

Saturday, May 17th.

Town & Country Lutheran Church

4049 Marconi Ave.

Sacramento, CA

To qualify for the theme award, your entry needs to be something from the time period of 1955-1975 (not just military items, could be cars, real space, etc.).

We will have vendors and a raffle!

Doors open at 9 AM, with registration closing at noon. Judging starts at noon, and we hope to have the awards finished by 3:30.

It will be standard IPMS 1-2-3 format. We will put the 2nd & 3rd place awards on the tables, and announce the first place & best of winners only (along with ALL the juniors 1/2/3).

Check our Facebook page for updates.

Thanks!

Drew Savage

President, IPMS SilverWings

Hello Stuart, could you please plug our 12th annual model contest and swap meet being held on Saturday May 17, 2025 in Eagle River, Wisconsin. The location is about 3 hours north of Madison where the IPMS-USA Nationals were held last year. I’ve enclosed a copy of our flyer for more details.

I truly enjoy your show and find your information very helpful in my modeling projects. I model a little bit of everything from cars, planes, armor, to si-fi. I also enjoy reading and just finished “100 Missions North” by Col. Ken Bell who flew a F-105 during Vietnam. The book was a easy read and provided a look into the lives of “Thud” drivers during that difficult time. Check it out.

Take care.

WHAT’S ON THE BENCH

Stuart - Got the Whirlwind done except for the landing gear doors. I put them in a safe space…. The 1/48 Sherman is at the decal stage. Not much beyond that as I’m going to be busy with my wife coming home from hospital. :-)

Geoff - picked up the IBG 1/72 Gotha Go242A-1 from Frank Donati at Heritagecon and started building it for a review article for IPMS Canada. Nice kit, and really enjoying it! Also picked up a couple of Wingnut and Copper State Models kits of 1/32 WW1 planes at the show.

[foogallery id="3961"]

Terry - Mostly doing some organization in the bench area, building trays etc. Also slowly working on the 1/72 Valkyrie Battroid and I suppose I need to figure out how to make some better antennae for my Phalanx, probably with some guitar string.

[foogallery id="3967"]

***************************************

WHAT WE ARE READING

Stuart - Almost done Traces by Stephen Baxter, started Your Hidden Genius by Betsy Wills and Alex Ellison.

Geoff - still plowing through the Time-Life Library of WW2.

Terry - Still reading Baxter’s Moonseed and Volume 1 of The Apothocary Diaries novel.
