Our Next Meeting will be a...Group Build!

In Memorandom ...
In fondest memory of ECPM member Richard Adams. A man skilled in model building, kind of nature, and a repository of wonderful memories.
Richard, we miss you, each and every one of us. Rest easy sir. And thank you for your friendship. The Osprey pictured above was completed by members of ECPM at the request of Mrs Marshall Smith. It was the last model he was working on but was never completed. So William Reece, Alan Welch and Gary Mitchell went into action and completed it for the family. Marshall was a long time member of ECPM and will be missed.
Picture above is the Osprey in its new home.

Why We Build
Building a scale model freezes a moment in history. It preserves a time and a place and an event in a form you can hold in your hand. It's an aid and an incentive to learn about times past in a way that is not only easy to comprehend, but also enjoyable. It lets you not only revisit history, but rebuild it. |
