I recently had the pleasure of visiting the IPMS Cyprus model show held in Skali, Aglantzia, on the outskirts of the Capital, Nicosia. The show is held in what are some ancient caves in a hillside overlooking the city, a very pleasant venue indeed. I think there are only approx 100 members in IPMS Cyprus, but they are a very talented bunch of guys who produce some high quality models, and some very original subject matter too. Examples of aircraft, armour, ships, figures, cars etc were all on display and as you can see from the pics they were of a superb standard. Genuine model building talent. It may also be worth pointing out that some of the IPMS Cyprus membership are regular visitors and competitors at the Modelworld show held in the UK.

So, many thanks to the guys at IPMS Cyprus, Stelios, Kikis, Louis and all of the other members (my appologies to the rest of the membership, I do not know all of your names!) for putting on such a superb show, it was thoroughly enjoyable. It was a pleasure to attend. I certainly look forward to attending the next one!!
