Big on small stuff? North Shore miniatures show on Saturday

COVINGTON, La. ( WGNO ) — Every second Saturday of the month, when they gather together to meet, every move is exactly exact. And on Saturday, you’ll get to see it too.

They are the Northshore Scale Modelers Club, an official chapter of the International Plastic Modelers’ Society that was started in 2008 with only five friends and now has about 30 members, most of whom are military veterans who enjoy taking time to create miniatures with careful, painstaking attention to detail.

WGNO Good Morning New Orleans features reporter Bill Wood is watching them at work and enjoying the show just like you can.

The club is inviting the public to attend their annual June expo, featuring competitors from all over the region and happening on Saturday, June 22 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at American Legion Bingo Hall in Covington.

The theme for this year’s expo is “At the Movies,” offering special prizes for entries that present vehicles, characters, or scenes inspired by films. The expo will also feature 12 categories of miniatures that modelers can register to compete in.

Take a look at the Northshore Scale Modeler’s website for more information and details on the expo.
