Modelers from across the United States and Canada — and a few from the rest of the world — descended on Louisville, Kentucky, June 9-11, for WonderFest and set a new record for models in the Amazing Figure Contest. The final count was 1,049 entries including ships from Star Wars, Star Trek, and Macross, big fighting suits and kaiju, heroes and villains of comic books, TV shows, and movies, and beings that will haunt your nightmares. Here’s a small selection of the models that crowded the tables.

Yes, there’s more!

Article_3

Do not miss any of FSM exclusive Workbench Reviews, including this review of the HobbyBoss 1/48 scale Hawker Hurricane Mk.I . Anyone can build this kit, and that’s a good thing.

And make sure you don’t miss other reviews while you’re there: 

Kits are cool! Keep going to find more cool stuff!

Article_4

Older or basic kits often have detail molded into a single-piece chassis. It might be more work than you want to deal with to cut out or add detail pieces. A simple alternative is paint, and you don’t even need an airbrush!

Don’t forget that every FSM Snapshot comes with a PDF version for you to download and use offline.


Learning is fun! Keep reading to learn more!
