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

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.
