IPMS Toronto member Anthony Wong conducted a fascinating seminar at the April meeting where he shared his techniques and tips for how he constructs incredible figures from scratch! Please enjoy the video below (apologies for the poor audio) and you can also find a link to his presentation deck.

This is your friendly reminder about our upcoming meeting on Wednesday, February 7th from 7 to 9 PM.

Our club member Garfield Ingram will be sharing his techniques for rigging biplanes with a combination of slides and hands-on tutoring.  You might remember Garfield from his December presentation on “A Visit to The First World War Western Front”.  As any avid WW1 aircraft modeler would know, rigging your model is an important part of the process.  The same can be said for modelling ships and many WW2 aircraft as well, so this session should be of great interest to many.

As always we will also hold our “On the Tables” segment, so please bring your creations for all to view and enjoy!

Our monthly meetings take place the FIRST Wednesday of each month from 7:00pm to 9:00pm.  Doors are open around 6:45pm, so members may arrive early to set up. 

Meeting location is:

Royal Canadian Legion Hall
Wilson Branch #527
948 Sheppard Ave W, North York, M3H 2T6 

We look forward to seeing you all there!

It is not easy to do this, as I regret to inform you of the loss of one of our close scale modelling friends. William (Bill) Dingle died suddenly and unexpected earlier this week. We have not only lost a close friend, but we lost his talents as a master modeller in the 1/72 armour model community. He was well known internationally as a great modeller and great friend. He was a true friend personally and will be deeply missed! Bill helped found AMPS Fort York and has been instrumental in supporting and contributing to IPMS Toronto.

Bill leaves behind a loving family, with his mother (Jean); sisters Melody and Becky; brothers Duane and Bobby; nieces Sarah and Kayleigh (and her husband James); great-niece Margot; and great-nephew Jensen. Our hearts and condolences go out to his family.

At this time, there will be no service as we leave the grieving to his family. Bill, keep building up there!

Dear IPMS TORONTO Zoom friends.

We regret to inform you that we will be cancelling our monthly Zoom calls. While this is a difficult decision, we just do not have manpower to manage both monthly in-person and zoom calls. We may bring them back if we get help in hosting these zoom calls.

So thank you for your great participation, and hope to see you in person one day!

Harvey

We regret to inform you that, due to unforeseen circumstances, tomorrow’s Feb. 14th, 2023 Zoom meeting is cancelled.
