New location but same good quality of models from northern Illinois show
On June 15, 2024, modelers from across the upper Midwest traveled to McHenry, Illinois, for the Northern Illinois Model Contest or NIMCON 12. Hosted by the IPMS/Lakes Region Scale Modelers, the show was in a new venue, McHenry VFW Post 1600, and featured 292 models. Here’s a selection for your viewing pleasure!

This bizarre-looking aircraft is the Kharkiv KhAI-3, an 11-passenger aircraft that first flew in September 1936. Ihor built a Mikro-Mir 1/72 scale kit of the one-of-a-kind plane out of the box and painted it with Tamiya acrylics except for metallic areas that were colored with Vallejo Metal Colors.
