Greetings!!
Welcome to the wonderful world of plastic model building. Not only is this hobby incredibly fun, rewarding, and relaxing but it can even be *gasp* educational as well. Whether you've stopped by because you saw one of our local shows, are curious about this 'strange' pastime, or are coming back to the hobby after a hiatus we're glad you stopped by and hope that this site will help to stimulate your imagination and improve your modelling skills. There is a wealth of information on this site - from our newsletter archive to the vast collection of model-related links. We also have our own forums where you can share tips and tricks, accumulate knowledge, expand your skills, and just hang out with other 'plastic fanatics'.The club has been active now for over 20 years. We are a fun group of people with a wealth of information and experience. We are always excited to share this knowledge with new modellers which includes our growing junior segment. If you are from the Saskatoon area feel free to come out to our monthly meetings. Membership is not a requirement so check it out and see what all the excitement is about.
We meet on the first Wednesday of every month at the Parkridge Center. The meetings officially begin at 7:00 pm, starting with approximately one hour of building and socializing before moving on to actual club business.

I always enjoy finding non-model related items that can be adapted for modeling use. This link
could have some interesting applications for modeling use. I came across this link while
searching for props for role-playing games like Dungeons and Dragons. This site offers molds
for creating your own tiles and blocks for building dungeons, towers, etc. While a lot of
the molds are fantasy and medieval themed, there are still lots that could be used for
dioramas and such. Since the blocks are designed in pieces you can put them together in
whatever way you prefer. I can see lots of uses for wartime dioramas and such.
Happy Modelling!!
