FigureWorld 2013
What, they’re going to do it again ?
Oh no they’re not !
Oh YES they are !
Look, pantomime season may well be long gone, but there’s no reason not to hark back to the freezing days of winter…..or was that last week……Still, it’s nearly Spring, but I digress
So; FigureWorld; same place, same time of year, same people running it.

And yes, yet again it’s going to be brilliant…….Just like it was in previous years !
We’re already beginning to organise this, and just so you can pencil the date into your diary, it’s going to be on Saturday the 20th of July 2013 at Oundle School, Oundle, Near Peterborough. PE8 4GH.
Times for the show will be the same as last year – 9:30am until 16:30pm.
And just like last year there’s a good amount of free parking. There will be a stall with refreshments, lots of traders and enough displays of model figures to please even the most jaded modeller. Yet again there’s no competition to worry about and simply loads of figure modellers in attendance to chat about your favourite hobby with.
So there you go, early warning and “Reason Number One” for returning to FigureWorld in 2013 –
See, even now, we’re just thinking of you !

Hi Rob

I have never been heard loads of great things so this year I am going to be there.

Looking forward to it.

Steve

Its a great show, as others have said its a fantastic location and vibe.

I'll be releasing Tommy's War figures 15 and 16, these are a Sergeant of the Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry, France 1915, and a Private of the 11th Bn Australian Imperial Force, ANZAC Cove 1915.

I will bring the display case which will have a wide number of fantastic painted figures including the bike and figure diorama produced by Carlos and a number of the figures themselves, time permitting I will have the new figures included in there!

A show well worth the journey.

Figureworld 2013 - Reason No. 2: The Paintathon

Yes, we’re doing this again on the Sunday, and hopefully you’ll be able to join us at the FigureWorld venue with some paints, putty or just for a chat.

There isn’t any entrance fee for the Paintathon, the idea being to offer the space for people to come along and paint or sculpt in a group, rather than as individuals at home.

Last year a lot of ideas seemed to get passed around, and different techniques were seen in use – far easier to actually see something done, than trying to explain it to someone in a “Step by Step article.

As we said last time, if you’re travelling down to Oundle, why not make a weekend of it and come along to the Paintathon on the Sunday.

“Reason Number Two” for coming to FigureWorld in 2013 – Look at some models, buy some models, and even get chance to get started on something before leaving for home.

The Usual Suspects

FigureWorld 2013
The Trade Stands.

You came, you saw, you did a little shopping.
Yes, there is a global recession happening, and everyone’s tightening their belts.

However, with FigureWorld being pretty centrally located, it’s fairly easy to get to, and hopefully there’s not many folk having to travel five and six hours to get there.

With that in mind, we’ve invited the very best purveyors of resin, white metal and all those bits that you just can’t do without, and put them into two rooms so you can select exactly what you need for your next project.

Let’s face it, buying on the Internet is all well and good, but being able to look at the model you’re thinking of buying before parting with the hard earned cash is so much better – not to mention being able to take it home with you rather than waiting for the post.

It’s just under two months away still, but that’s just another way of saying “there’s plenty of time to save up !”

So, Reason Number Three for getting to FigureWorld 2013 – more things to buy than you can shake a stick at, and possibly a few things to make a new stick out of when you’ve worn out the old one.

The show is still being held on Saturday the 20th July 2013 at Oundle School, Oundle, Near Peterborough. PE8 4GH.

Opening times for the Saturday will be 9:30am until 16:30pm.

And don’t forget the Paintathon on the Sunday: - 9:30am until 14:30pm

Is there somewhere a list of traders? I need to plan a plan what I could possibly buy;p

'eM

Other Traders will include Hawk Miniatures (with Paul Blaber Minatures and Rafael Cebrian Arcabuz Flats), Sphere Products, Oakwood.

Cheers

We're going to be there again!

Usual array of the Sphere burnt wood products plus W&N brushes, paints, mediums & pastels and a selection of tools and acrylic paint sets.

The Displays
Let’s face it, these are the stars of the show, the whole reason FigureWorld began !

In fact, we think it’s why FigureWorld continues to attract new friends every year.

No competition, no pressure, no judging gaffes; just lots of space to display your models and be able to discuss them and other people’s work with……well…. Other people.

The whole idea behind FigureWorld is to get modellers together and talking. To see what each of us does, to talk about why we do it and how we do it, and perhaps to give each other ideas about new projects or types of figure we’d like to tackle in the future.

Struggling with that latest project ?

Can’t quite get the effect you want ?

Just plain difficult to find the motivation to paint ?

All good reasons to chat to people who do what you do – they’ve probably been there before and very probably have a good solution for it.

Obviously we’re contacting the same clubs and forums as last year to support the display area:-

The White Rose Society.

The British Model Soldier Society

The British Flat Figure Society.

Darlington Model Club

Platoon Brittanica

Jolly Bodgers

SouthWest Figure Modellers

If you’re not a member of one of the above clubs or forums, then you’re welcome to join the main “open” display space – which is part of where the guys running the show will be displaying their models..

So, just like last year, you’re still invited to come along and put on a display of figures, because that’s what Figureworld’s all about.

The show is still being held on Saturday the 20th July 2013 at Oundle School, Oundle, Near Peterborough. PE8 4GH.

Opening times for the Saturday will be 9:30am until 16:30pm.
And don’t forget the Paintathon on the Sunday: - 9:30am until 14:30pm

So there you go, “Reason Number Four” for returning to FigureWorld in 2013 – Not only are you worth it, your models are too !
