Annoying that I have to click each photo. Looks like a great show.

A well deserved congratulations Clint! Your work is very worthy of those awards! Nice to see that contest was such a roaring success. That gives me hope for Orangecon this year, even though I most likely won't be there if all goes well for me: my 40th class reunion is that same weekend in Florida and I really do want to go to that!

The IPMS Nationals in Vegas will be a wild ride for sure if the trend at Roscoe Tuner is any indication...

Just think Mark, no contests of any sort for over a year. Stuff that wa s built for last years Nationals will show up along with stuff for this years Nats. Not to mention that some folks had more building time at home due to the lockdowns. I think that it will be a very high entry count.

And that's why I'm not entering anything for our show on May 8th. I didn't build much because of the pandemic and I know there's going to be a TON of builds on the tables.

Over on reddit I keep seeing new people interested in the hobby, if the pandemic did anything good maybe it brought more people to model building.

Yes, it brought back folks who stopped building whenever, for whatever reason, and it has brought in new folks who never built a model before in their life. But yeah, it sure has expanded the roll for now.

Oh yeah, I agree for sure. And yes, I will be entering even though the possibility of winning something has dropped dramatically. I just want people to see what I've done during the lockdowns....
