Michael Martin had a couple of auto models at the last meeting that featured customized bumper sticker and license plate decals that he’d printed himself. A few people (well, me, at least) asked him about it. So in case you missed the email about it, here’s how he did it:
Two items:
First, it was mentioned at the meeting last night that G&G Model Shop (in Rice Village) has a collection of kits for sale. Mostly WWII German and Japanese aircraft, and the boxes are apparently not in the best condition, but might be worth a look.
Second, RC Hobby Shop in Sugar Land has moved. (I found out when I went to the old location looking for airbrush needle lubricant.) Their new address is 206 Brand Ln in Stafford, just south of US-90 near Dulles. This is fairly near the Stafford Centre, behind the O’Reilly Auto Parts.
Not sure where these place are? Check out the map – you can get there from the Links page.
June Meeting Tuesday the 12th.
Maybe we won’t be in the closet like the last couple of months.
We have a theme this month – ‘Anything German’. Which is pretty broad, so it shouldn’t be too hard to find something. It doesn’t have to be completed.
See you there.
7 to 9 pm at the Tracy Gee Community Center
3599 Westcenter Drive, one block east of the West Beltway 8 Toll Road on Richmond Ave

In case you missed the email, Tom Moon provided a link to photos of all (I think) of this year’s entries, neatly categorized and labeled, and put in a gallery over at photobucket. There’s a link on our Galleries page.
I’ve also added the latest version of the contest results on the same page.
Thanks, Tom!
Oh, yeah, there’s a meeting tonight (08 May). Bring stuff to show off.
ModelMania 2012 is wrapped up.We had 408 entries from over 100 modelers, and untold multitudes of spectators. Here are a few photos to give you a taste of what it was like:
For those interested in the results, you can find a pdf here.
Congratulations are in order for all of the participants, whether they took home an award or not.
Don’t forget Scalefest coming up in May! Links to upcoming shows are listed on the right side of the page.
