Figure Clubs

[Jim Patrick]

Trying to get a new feature going (yes, I'm back on the staff, thanks Gordy ) and it will list all of the figure related clubs all across the world. All we need are links to your websites. If you dont have a website? No problem. Just reply with your club/group/organazation information and who can be contacted.

Trying to put a comprehensive list together of all the clubs/groups out there in order to bring like minded people together all around the world. Who knows? Maybe there is a painter (or even a beginner) out there who doesn't realize your club is out there?

Here is what I have:

Atlanta Military Figure Society (AMFS)
http://www.atlantafigures.com/index.htm

Historical Miniature Society of Northeastern Oklahoma
http://www.hmsneo.org/

That's all I have. Pretty sad I know but most of the clubs I used to have links for don't work anymore.

Please try to keep this as links for clubs/groups/organazations as the online group is pretty large.

My club and i'm proud to be the webmaster.
As u dutchman it is sad that i must say that the figure hobby is dead in the Netherlands.
So here is my club's website.

Great idea, Guy, but I must offer a minor correction regarding our,ie, the MFCA's, website. That link is our old original site, and it's actually dormant. Our current site is www.mfcashow.com. I'm the webmaster, and I'm in progress to include more than just the show content. One goal is to revive our newletter and make it available as a pdf on the site.

For anyone within shouting distance, we meet on the 1st Friday of every month at 7:30pm in the second floor suite (Artisans' Hall) of the Professional Building, 8100 Roosevelt Boulevard, in Northeast Philadelphia.

We bring along works in progress, new acquistions, books and articles, and just about anything of general interest to the hobby. Everyone is welcome to join us, so if you're in the area, please do stop by.

Prost!
Brad
