2019 MODEL COMPETITION IN SINGAPORE


HOBBY BOUNTIES OF SINGAPORE continues with its annual Airfix-linked model competition. In 2019, its online presence was boosted by the dedicated Airfix Cup website.


SMN report: The force behind the competition is Peter Chiang, of the Hobby Bounties store. We have featured the competition before, and it's well worthwhile checking out the SMN article links at the bottom to find out more.

The 'Make and Take' session (below) is a useful feature.


Plenty of beautifully crafted models (below) showed how stands and dioramas provide display appeal.
