The Canadian Heritage Warplane Museum in Mount Hope, Ontario, Canada, hosted HeritageCon on Sunday, March 29, 2026. Organized by the IPMS Hamilton Scale Modelling Club, this year’s contest had more than 900 scale model aircraft, armor, autos, ships, figures, Gundam, and more on the contest tables. Open to the public, HeritageCon drew 3,000 visitors and had a full vendor room selling tools, vintage kits, new releases, books, and more. Attendees brought their models to the FSM photo booth when they had time between catching up with friends and buying more models for their stashes!

To model a looted Spitfire stolen and put into ork service, Jackson started with an Airfix 1/48 scale kit and added Games Workshop ork pilot and styrene guns and mounts. The base utilizes Games Workshop Epic Scale models to create a forced perspective. AK Interactive acrylics and putty masking under enamel washes with AK Interactive Streaking Grime and Tamiya products make up the paint and weathering.
