Welcome to the Home of 2008 Region 6 Chapter of the Year IPMS - Lt. j.g. Nathan Gordon Central Arkansas Scale Modelers
|
Did you build models as a kid? Do you enjoy building miniature representations of the cars you have owned, or maybe the
airplane you work on, or secretly wish you could pilot? If so you might want to come out and pay us a visit. We are a group
of scale model builders who get together each month in Little Rock, Arkansas to share our hobby. Our interests are
varied — from cars, planes, tanks, figures, ships, real space, to science fiction — all modelers are welcome to join the fun.
We learn from and inspire each other, regardless of our individual interest.
We hope to see you at our next meeting!

some other links listed, some may be on Tony's list but some of the others aren't. They'll take you to reference sites,
