I noticed that many modelers are unaware of the existence of modeling clubs. Meeting fellow modelers and looking at and learning from each others models is very inspiring! I'm a member of IPMS-The Netherlands (International Plastic Modellers Society) which has about 1000 members. It has regional chapters, with regular meetings. You can view many photo reports of our Regio Zuid-Holland meetings.
During the months that covid-19 measures restricted us from having club meetings, I ran a temporary web page (in Dutch) where all club members could show off their modeling activities. In this way, we kept the club spirit alive. There are 235 contributions, with 649 photos. Feel free to take a look - it's easy to navigate through.
Dutch-speaking modelers can visit the Modelbrouwers forum. A source of modeling information from the nineties is the newsgroup rec.models.scale; you can search its archives through Google.
