2010 - XV GPC Open - IPMS Campinas

*** IMPORTANT UPDATE ***

Hello AF talent,

Half of the year is gone, world cup is done so it´s time to get cracking with models, this means there are only 5 weeks until our big annual meeting in Campinas - Brazil.

Please do visit our group´s website (http://www.grupogpc.com.br/hobby/plasticmodeling/home-eng.html) where you will find the latest news and you can now already register your models for the competition.

-----------------------
Hello fellow modellers;

It's with great joy that I invite you all to start up with your builds for next year's annual meeting in Campinas - Brazil.

This year we had 891 models from 178 modelers. Lets reach a thousand in 2010!!

Our event will be held as usual in August 2010 (exact date to be defined) the rules are already available so you have the time to plan your models as well as a trip if you are from far far away.

Please do visit our website for more information (http://www.grupogpc.com.br/index.php?lingua=4&pagina=home_eng). Yep, it's in english as well.

Here are some pics I took at this year's event until my camera decided it would not take anymore pics that day.

This is the main hall, in the back there you can see people gathering for drawing of gifts and handing of medals and trophies, the table you see here is for military models, planes, cars, dioramas and etc are all around, it's quite a big venue:
