The Anime-Manga Scale Modelers SIG will be getting delisted at the end of the month per the SIG leaders request. COI and COE forms are due and need to be completed by those who have not completed them yet.

PP – Looking to create a “what judges look for” YouTube video, starting the process of creating it now.

DM – Nothing much new this month, continuing to work with reviewers and getting reviews in, 31 reviews posted this month. New reviewer Gaahleri sending in paint and airbrushes.

MO – Financial state continues to be as expected, nothing new to report. Laptops/Chromebooks used by the event staff are in need of updating, will be taking care of that in time for the convention.

CB – Journal is on schedule, working with the team to streamline consistencies across everything. Looking at options to put additional article information on the website.

DL – 8 chapters still need to renew and will be working with them on that. Has been working on regional and national awards. 3 new chapters will be forming soon and joining IPMS/USA.

ETR – Has been attending the National Convention zoom meetings. Questions have arisen regarding what constitutes a guest for National Convention registration, Eboard will review and update the National Convention Team with an answer.

JN – Currently reviewing all our technology platforms and ways to efficiently integrate them so they are not so decentralized.
