Mad City Modelers 2025 scale-model contest photo gallery

Airplanes, armor, autos, and more at this popular model contest
The Mad City Modelers hosted its annual scale-model contest at Monona Terrace in Madison, WI, on March 15, 2025. As one of the Midwest’s preeminent scale-model contests, it drew 119 modelers who registered 573 models for the contest. We were on hand to photograph as many of those as we could while modelers visited amongst themselves and shopped the vendor tables.

Mike built his Eduard 1/48 scale Wildcat out of the box and primed with Mr. Surfacer Black before airbrushing Mr. Color paints, post-shading as he went. He applied gloss to seal his work as he accented select areas with oil paints. After another round of gloss, he applied pinwashes, chipped, and sealed it under flat clear.
