Anyone Going to AMPS International??
Posted by redleg12 on Sunday, March 20, 2011 8:15 AM

OK Guys...I'm headed down to Fredricksburg on Tues Apr 4 and will be there for both tours. Anyone else headed down at any point?

For those that are down there we can try to get a group shot with Aaron and the FSM staff.

Unfortunately, i won't be attending.

However, I would like to know if  FSM normally does special coverage of this event or is this a one time visit to  publish photos of winners?

I look forward to seeing a photo of Manny in his " I eat the bones of Trolls " t-shirt. Big Smile

That's what I'll wear the first day; the day of judging I'll wear the one that reads: "You see s Seam on This!?!"

Sprue: FSM has sent editors and photographers to the show as long as I can remember. I don't recall if they do a show report per se -- I know they include a bunch in their year-end wrap up issues.  They also post a bunch on the website -- kind of like "live at AMPS".  They don't photograph the top winners per se -- since that's the last thing announced.  If they happen to snap pics of the "best ofs", it's just good guessing by Aaron and the crew.


They've been super supporters for AMPS and the show for a long time.  AMPS appreciates them for what they do for the club and for modeling in general here in the USA.   Bunch of nice guys, too!

Someone take a pic of Manny in those shirts please.  That should be good for a thread of at least 100 pagesStick out tongue  That's a combined number since 1 will be locked and another will be deleted.

I'll be there Thursday afternoon/evening timeframe.  I'll be hanging out with Redleg 12.  Look for the two grizzled old Artillerymen... that will be us.

OH NO! Hide the wimmin'!!  Eats

Seriously gents, have a great time!!

Mike, if you happen to stumble upon any mortars during your tours... strip 'em down and send the parts up... ahhhh... well... if you can't do that, I'd love to have a photo or two.
