Wine Country Modelers, February 2008


Location: HobbyTown USA, Petaluma
Date: February 21, 2008
Commentary: Doug Dropeskey
Photographer: Doug Dropeskey

The Wine Country Modelers meet on the third Thursday of every month at HobbyTown USA in Petaluma. Meetings generally start at 7pm. Though many of the members focus on automotive subjects, meetings often include science fiction, fantasy, figure, and military models. Meetings run for about 90 minutes with a simple show and tell format. Each attendee gets a chance to talk about his or her model(s), ask questions of the group, discuss model related projects, and/or just say hello. Attendees are encouraged, but not required, to bring underway or completed models for show and tell. Anyone can attend, so feel free to drop in and talk about your corrent project or ask model related questions.

Editor's Note: I forgot to take pictures of my own models at the meeting, so I added them after the fact. Except for the Panther, these pictures show the models as they appeared at the meeting. I assembled the Panther running gear for the meeting, but have since disassembled it to complete painting.

For more information about this Wine Country Modelers meeting, please visit the HobbyTown, Petaluma website.
