Suspect it might be towards the end of the year and possibly in europe. So if the Belgian show is on (October?) might have to arrange a long weekend with SWMBO.
We have both had 1st injections and will have had second by mid May, so with any luck some travel will be permitted after May.

Well, Orangecon is coming up here in the south of California, so far it is still on. Las Vegas Nationals are also still on so far. Maybe I'll have something to post here after that....

Well, someone took notice. San Diego had the first Southern California model contest this past Saturday. Here is my award from that show, the first one for the Haven this year. Third Place, Sci-Fi and Real Space, San Diego 2021:  That is my 1/72 scale Horizon Models Mercury Redstone rocket. Wow, that felt so awesome, especially considering the literal flood of Masterful models entered this year!

Thanks Ian! The very next show will be the IPMS USA Nationals near the end of August. I doubt seriously there will be any awards for my work there given the extreme talent and volume of models expected. Still, I'll have plenty of pics for that one!
