THE SHOW
GOES ON!
I
ANDY EVANS,
MANAGING EDITOR
andy@modelaircraftmag.com
am sure that the hot topic of conversation
amongst modellers of late has been the great
news that IPMS Scale Modelworld will in fact
be taking place at the Telford International
Centre over the weekend of the 13th and 14th of
November. Just how this year’s show will look
is something of an unknown at this time, as
ultimately the IPMS committee have said that
they will be guided by whatever Covid restrictions
are in place at the time, but at this stage in the
proceedings they have sufficient confidence to
commit to the event. However, there are still a
lot of decisions to be made about how the show
will operate and they will be issuing updates on
a regular basis over the next couple of months.
Just how the virus will be having an impact on
our lives and ultimately planned events such
as Scale Modelworld during the beginning of
the winter months will no doubt have a direct
bearing on the overall appearance of the show. I
have already seen posts on various social media
outlets about how traders, from both the UK and
overseas are feeling about the show, attending
or not as the case may be. Nevertheless, for
modellers the mere fact that the IPMS committee
has sought to go ahead with the event is in
itself really encouraging, and I am sure we wish
the organisers the very best as they prepare
for what is essentially the highlight of many a
modellers year! Despite Covid still having a big
impact on our lives I am pleased to report that I
have visited a couple of shows over the summer
and whilst attendances were certainly down
on pre-pandemic levels, it is fair to say that the
overall feeling was one of relief and bonhomie
from both visitors, traders and club stands. It
was also great to be able to browse the wares
of a number of traders again, and to pick up a
few essentials to help me progress a few stalled
projects that have been staring at me from the
darkest corner of my workbench all summer and
propel me back into action during the next few
months! Of course, with Scale Modelworld being
back on the agenda, I will now have rethink my
list of kits and accessories I hope to purchase and
see what my wallet thinks of it! Indeed, there a
more than a few reference books I have my eye
on, and of course they will need supporting with
the relevant kits and of course all the ephemera
to go with them! So, let us continue to hope that,
as we work our way through the pandemic, we
can regain some of what has been lost since
the start of 2020, in both our personal lives
and the hobby we love. So, as always please
stay safe, stay calm and happy modelling!
