Exploring the IPMS National Convention: Journeys, Purchases, and Community Highlights


Listen Later

Discover the magic of the IPMS National Convention through our eyes as we recount the vibrant atmosphere and thrilling events of the show. Join us as we navigate the expansive vendor room brimming with kits, aftermarket items, and books, and share conversations with fellow hobbyists and vendors. Fan favorite Evan McCallum stops by to discuss his latest purchases and burgeoning interest in modern Chinese AFVs. We also delve into the value-packed seminars and the challenges of navigating a packed schedule.

Take a sentimental journey with us as we reflect on the legacy of Brian's shop and the formation of the Goldbrickers Scale Modelers in Radcliffe, Kentucky. We celebrate the camaraderie and rich experiences shared at the convention, with notable contributions from our Canadian friends. Adding a layer of excitement, we touch on the Moosaroo reveal and the new ICM kit challenge, alongside listener emails highlighting their joy of reuniting with old friends and making new ones in the modeling community.

Meet a retired Air Force officer who's turned his passion for space launch rockets into a thriving 3D modeling business. Learn about his journey from inception to managing a growing catalog of detailed rocket models, using cutting-edge technology. As we recount our spending sprees in Madison, Wisconsin, and discuss the latest book and kit purchases, we also offer a heartfelt thank you to the community for their unwavering support and shared love for the craft.
