Lafayette Scale Modelers Show June 6, 2015

Thanks for sharing Mike! (y)
Great show indeed!

About the semi naked female figures;it is a real challenge to paint these flesh parts and to get it right,the figures displayed at the show are top notch work.I don't see it as something sexual, but as Art with a capital A. (y)


Gr,Ron.
 
Funny you should mention that, Ron. Here's Don (Brummbar) at the intersection of T & A a few years ago on the way home from the Kansas City contest.

Cracks me up! (y) :drinks
 
Odd, That. The intersection of T & A is certainly popular with Model Makers. Where's all the Women-people at?

A mystery.
 
Dealing with how to classify nude figures is an ongoing issue, and something that varies from club to club.

The club I'm in has put on several shows over the year, and we always had a rule that any nude figures would be placed in slightly covered area. I agree that non-sexual figures are more art, but knowing that children would be at the show, and everyone has different opinions about that sort of thing, we felt it was better to place them so that they werent in plain view was the better option to keep from having anyone get upset or angry about it.

The problem is it's impossible to satisfy everyone, so we just did what we could try to having as few issues as possible.
