42 FineScale Modeler October 2019
In early May, more than
150 modelers shuffled
off to Buffalo for the
annual international
convention of the Armor
Modeling and
Preservation Society.
The contest tables were
crowded with nearly
600 tanks, figures,
trucks, cannons, and
dioramas. FSM editors
Mark Savage and Aaron
Skinner hit the city on
the shore of Lake Erie to
take in the show and
shoot photos of the
entries.
The 2020 convention is
slated for May 7-9 in
Harrisburg,
Pennsylvania. Check
amps-armor.org for
updates and more info.
