The members of the Society for Scale Modellers will be holding their 35th Annual Scale Model Exhibition between Wednesday 10 February and Sunday 14 February at the Malta Maritime Museum at the Vittoriosa Waterfront.

The models on exhibit will consist of civil and military aircraft, cars, trucks and motorbikes, armoured vehicles and various classes of ships all from different eras and scenarios as well as a section dedicated to figurines.

Many of these models have won awards and placed well in international events as recent as 2015. These models are veritable works of art and are obviously finished to the highest possible standards, testimony of the capability of Maltese modellers. As Malta's representatives of the IPMS, the Society has been promoting scale modelling in Malta these past 34 years and has locally and internationally become synonymous with the high standards in model making of its members. In its continued effort to ensure that this expression of art remains popular, the Society strives to introduce youngsters to the hobby by means of its exhibitions, workshops and courses in scale modelling.

Those wishing to obtain more information can visit the Society's website at www.ipmsmalta.com. Visitors to this year's exhibition will also be able to follow the process of model construction as members of the society will be working real-time on models at work-stations set up purposely for the spectator's benefit. IPMS Malta enjoys a very high ranking in international modelling quality and consequently, both finished and work in progress models are guaranteed to be of the highest levels. The exhibition will be open Wednesday 10 to Sunday 14 February from 9am to 5pm. Entrance is free.
