NOVAModeler Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Huge congrats to one of the staff, Rick from Maryland, who was awarded "Master Modeler in 1:48 and bigger aircraft" at the monthly NoVA IPMS meeting last night. In order to achieve this, one has to receive 1st place 5x in a given category at the monthly meetings where members vote for models on the tables. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am truly humbled to be acknowledged by my peers at NOVA IPMS. As you saw last night I was totally unaware of this, what a great surprise. Further, I am in great company with skilled modellers like you and will enjoy the camaraderie and fellowship playing with plastic airplanes. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nmayhew Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 For pure modelling, the Zero conversion was my highlight The Hartmann 109 is a popular subject done superbly - finishing of the highest order All hail!! The Master!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My apologies, Rick. You're right, it was another modeller. I had just been looking at that build again, when I posted my response. I really need to drink more coffee sometimes.......
