High Plains Con XXXIII

This is High Plains Modelers thirty-third annual model contest, featuring at least 43 categories covering every aspect of model building.  We have entries in airplane, car, armor, space, sci-fi, dioramas, you name it.  This years theme is the Birds and the Bees.  Entries for this category can be actual bird models, airplanes (they're birds), Thunderbird cars - the Bees can be bombers (B-17, B-29, and so on) or Super Bee cars, Dodge Hornet - this should be a lot of fun.  We typically have several hundred models from 60 or so entrants, and more than 20 tables of vendors from which to buy that next kit.  A very fun day.
