So yeah, SCGMC is coming up November 9. I know there are a few folks flying in from other states coming to this event. Yeah, we’re growing, and the Gunpla community is starting to recognize this as an event worthy of travel. This year, we’ve taken some serious looks at the previous two years and have been doing so much more to better the event. Our organization is so much more complete than previous years.
Yesterday, we headed out to Huntington Dog Beach for one of the several beach day’s the group Corgi Nation hosts. Since we have three of the little monsters, we decided that we definitely needed to go. Terry is in Hawaii this week, so we dropped by his place and kidnapped Duke and brought him along. I forgot to bring my camera, but we have our phones.
Last weekend was IPMS OC’s annual OrangeCon event. A group of Those Gundam Guys went and pretty much ruled the Gundam category. One of the tank builders did make the 1/35 scale Hovertank from 8thMS Team, very nicely done. Angel picked up Third place with his Unicorn, I grabbed a Second for my Efreet Custom, and Mike, one of the newer guys to our build gatherings picked up 1st for his Patchwork Sazabi. Which also picked up Best Sci-fi, and with the running of Best of Show, was the one of two kits battling for that award, only getting inched out by Sean’s incredibly well built ship (not a ship guy so, I forgot the name). Not too bad for the new guy who picked up airbrushing from attending last year’s SCGMC.
Which is the perfect segue into the little video I made to help promote the event that is a little less than a month away.
