    2022 SC Scale Model Mega Show

    Unfortunately, it doesn't actually work that way. We have a member of our club who's a recently retired SC Army NG LTC. Not only that, but he's an engineer branch officer, and what's more, he's a civilian employee of the guard who's a licensed civil engineer whose job it is to provide contract...

    2022 SC Scale Model Mega Show

    That is one of the courses of action that we're looking at, for sure. However, in our geographic region, moving our show date up to earlier in the year puts us in conflict with the Atlanta AMPS / AMMFS show scheduled for mid-Feb and the AMPS International Convention that is usually scheduled...

    2022 SC Scale Model Mega Show

    We sort of think the same and hope that the economy improves for next year. There was also an IPMS show in Maietta, GA on the same day. Nothing we can do about that, though, since we're not an IPMS chapter their event deconfliction rules don't apply. Another major improvement this year was in...

    2022 SC Scale Model Mega Show

    Not our largest show ever with regards to total entries, but also certainly not our smallest, either: Over 185 models on exhibition (counting several collections or groupings as single models -so individual model count was somewhere well over 200). 41 entrants (modelers) and models registered...

    Modeler's Guide to the SCUD Missile Cable and Hose Connections

    Hi ya gang, Just wanted to post this link here to share a bit of research that I've done for a couple of projects that I'm working on - Trumpeter's SCUD B on Tracked TEL 9P19 and SCUD C on Wheeled TEL 9P117 both with the R-17 Missile. Dropbox:: Modeler's Guide to the SCUD Missile Cables and...

    2022 SC Scale Model Mega Show

    I want to let everyone know that this SC Scale Model Mega Show is scheduled and on track for Saturday, 18 June 2022 at the SC Army NG Armory on Bluff Road, Columbia, SC. We’ve been assured by the armory that there will not be a repeat of last year’s a/c fiasco. For this year, we’ve also refined...

    2021 South Carolina Scale Model Mega Show

    I'm glad you guys could all make it down! It was great to see you, and I just wish I had had some time to hangout with you. Also great that you were able to check the block with your vending. Preliminary reports from the vendors suggest that they all had a good day. It seemed like there were...

    Good ol' UPS

    I have to say that I blame a lot of that sort of damage that I get with my own orders on the shippers. Way too many are cutting corners and just stuffing items into "padded" envelopes which offer no darned protection at all for items like kit boxes and books. The last several books that I've...

    2021 South Carolina Scale Model Mega Show

    So, yet another update, this time on the new COVID procedures policy: The hosts of the 2021 SC Scale Model Mega Show highly encourage everyone attending our show to follow the CDC recommendations for vaccinated and unvaccinated persons. The CDC recommends that all persons follow these...

    2021 South Carolina Scale Model Mega Show

    Another quick show update: We have sold out all 71 of our vendor tables and are now working off of our stand-by list. If you want to vend, all hope is not lost. We usually get some few cancellations and our vendor coordinator does, in fact, go by the stand-by list. The BIG NEWS is that we have...

    1/35 Rye Field Type 82e Volkswagen

    Very nice! I like that a lot. Does the kit come with only the one rear seat?

    2021 South Carolina Scale Model Mega Show

    Yea, I got the word from Timmy yesterday afternoon that the vendor tables were sold-out. No surprise, I have to say. We've sold out all our vendor tables for several years in a row, and every year after that, we've added a few more. This year, though, we've reached our maximum - 70 tables...

    2021 South Carolina Scale Model Mega Show

    The "Special Awards" are all sponsored by folks outside the model clubs, and the particular sponsors will judge the models for their own awards. ALL of the models on exhibit, though (not just the ones registered for the regular contest portion) are eligible to be judged for any of the special...

    2021 South Carolina Scale Model Mega Show

    I'm sorry to have to say it, but you guys will need to rent a regular vendor table for that. On the other hand, you are welcome to bring the stuff and try to sell it directly to one of the regular vendors. (It's not unusual for some of the larger vendors to buy out the "closet cleaner" vendors...

    2021 South Carolina Scale Model Mega Show

    If there're just a couple of folks who want to display together, the simplest thing is to probably all show up and get in the registration line together. The first one should tell the registrar that there's a group registering together and how many. He or she can then put you all in a row...

    2021 South Carolina Scale Model Mega Show

    Just a quick reminder that this show is FAST approaching! We only have 5 (out of 70) vendor tables left, so if you want to vend, better contact our vendor coordinator ASAP. (Email contact info on our show website.) We'll also be conducting in-person and simulcast Zoom judges training on...
