A great example of the international reach of our hobby in general and IPMS Toronto in particular. Here’s a write up of the recent Heritagecon 9 show by Robert Wlodarek that was posted on the site of IPMS Warsaw.
IPMS Toronto member Chuck Rothman delivers a very informative instructional tutorial at a recent club meeting, discussing his process for making custom decals. Once again we see how lucky IPMS Toronto is to have members of exceptional skill and knowledge who love to share with each other.

Another fantastic show and contest put on by the group at IPMS Hamilton with more vendors and contest entries than ever before. The photos from the show are rolling in and we’ll be posting them here.
