The modelling spirit

[ModelerSite]

In a world where prices seem so constantly to be rising it is source of considerable satisfaction to think just how much pleasure can be still obtained ridiculously cheaply by the modelmaker. A large proportion of all models that are made can be said to be the by-product of waste, being made almost entirely from unconsidered oddments that would otherwise have been thrown away.

The previous text seems to have been written lately, but it was the introduction of the Model Marker magazine editorial, October 1952 issue, two years before my birth.

It represents the modelling spirit and what encourages modellers to build scale models and even nowadays with all the available technology, I still see model makers who enjoy improving details or creating a model entirely from scratch.

The 2010 was a very special year for Modelersite, as we’ve celebrated our tenth anniversary, 10 years online, 120 issues, 3000 articles and thousands of pictures, galleries, etc.

We reached one of the aims planned 10 years ago and we’re in debt with others, but gave all our love and devotion to this hobby, the best we know and could.

This is a very special end of year for all of us here, the balance is greater, is the great challenge of having created a complete project and our responsibility as publishers and members of this magazine to readers, sponsors and friends is still greater, to go on making what we love, developing new goals and objectives.

We hope we might have a chance to reinvent ourselves to offer a far better Modelersite.

Happy Holidays to everyone and wish you all the very best for 2011!!
