Grippin,

So long as the venue is available, everyone is welcome. Its a free-wheeling session, really, and you should be able to see various stages of kit construction going on. And the discussions (both modeling related and otherwise) are also great.

Oh, and its absolutely FREE! You dont need to bring anything, but if youve got kits under construction, or about to be constructed, you might want to bring them along so you can get pointers.

Ill send you a PM on how to contact me. Otherwise, you can also contact any other IPMS-Bert Anido members you see here.

See you soon! :)
