    Hi guys: The 2014 Jerseyfest Model Kit & Statue Fair will be held from August 1st to the 3rd in 2014 at the Marriott Hanover Hotel in Whippany, New Jersey. We sold out of vendor tables at our last show with over 115, and are expecting a significant increase in vendors and attendees at the 2014 show. The success and growth spurt from our last show has allowed us to upgrade to a four star rated Marriott hotel in a great location, not far from Newark Airport. See hotel pictures by clicking here: Marriott Hanover Hotel ? Home of Jerseyfest 2014 » JerseyFestFair Once again we are putting on a big show that will appeal to a diverse audience of modelers and collectors who are into vehicles, figures, mecha, props, etc. and various scales from miniatures to life-sized. And of course the show will have a huge amount of hobby supplies and materials of all kinds. Our model contest will once again be spectacular with phenomenal trophies and prizes. In the coming months, we will be announcing our special guest artists and information about presentations occurring during the vendor show on Saturday and Sunday. We also have some new activities and surprises for this year that we are not ready to announce yet - so stay tuned! The show will once again kick off with “Jerseyfest Academy” all day classes on the Friday before the vendor show (i.e., August 1st). They will be mostly “hands on” classes featuring instruction by elite artists on painting, sculpting and constructing vehicle and figure model kits. Two of the classes are Sci-Fi ships related. See the latest info on the Academy here: Jerseyfest Academy Hobby Classes & Workshops » JerseyFestFair We have a talented team working together to make the 2014 show extra special. Many people from all over the USA and international locations will be attending. The kits and presentations combined with the overall social experience all day and night will make for a great weekend of complete hobby bliss. Much more info to come folks ! Here is a "show report" summary of our last show with pictures: http://jerseyfestfair.com/?page_id=2949 Hope to see you at the big show ! The Jerseyfest Team JerseyFestFair » Model Kit & Statue Fair

    Hey guys: The entire Jerseyfest team was blown away by how big and successful the show was this year! We are grateful for all the attendees, vendors, artists, support team, etc. who participated. We just posted a gallery that contains hundreds of pictures from the show. It shows the incredible amount, quality and diversity of models and art that were for sale and on display, plus how much fun it was for everyone for 3 days. Click here to view the gallery: 2013 Jerseyfest Model & Kit Statue Fair » JerseyFestFair Lots of pictures of Sci-Fi vehicles and mecha models are included in the mix, so keep going through the gallery. We applaud the hobby community because so many people believed in and showed up for this convention from all over the country and even from outside of the USA. Also would like to again say thank you to Steve Wang, Lorne Peterson, Jeff Yagher and all of our other guest presenters for making the show extra special. In summary... - Over 65 people attended Jerseyfest Academy classes, which occurred the day before the vendor show started. The programming and artists were first rate - thank you guys. - We had over 112 vendor tables, and sold out. - Many vendors did great with sales. The various kits, art and products for sale were phenomenal. - The contest room was jam packed with 32 tables filled with 349 entries - the quality was jaw dropping. - Every presentation/demo was a home run with great presenters that covered diverse topics, and had great audience turnouts. - The hallways and bar were packed with partying hobbyists having great conversations and laughs all day and night. Even had great food and drink just like the old basement days :wink: ). We were all one big family, but this time there were hundreds of us. - I was happy to see many folks from the Sci-F and hardware community embrace the show, which I know will keep expanding every year. Many folks raved about how the presentations from Mike Salzo, Jason Eaton, Paul Bodensisk from ParaGrafix, Kevin Derken and Charles Villacara were fantastic. Thank you guys !!! But there's always things that could have been better and room for improvement, and we will work even harder for next year's show. Hope to see many of you at Jerseyfest in September of 2014 for an even bigger and better show. Much more info to come, so stay tuned. Cheers to this great hobby of ours ! Thanks, Dave JerseyFestFair » Model Kit & Statue Fair

    Hey guys: A new, special exhibit was just added to Jerseyfest that will showcase a spectacular array of large scale, Sci-Fi vehicle and mecha models. It includes ”studio scale” pieces and other unique, large sized builds. The models were created by some of the most talented artists in the garage kit hobby including Jason Eaton, Mike Salzo, Al Camisa (aka IED Bountyhunter), and more. Several pieces will be on display in a separate room, many of which accurately depict original models used in films or TV programs like Star Wars, Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica and other classics. All Jerseyfest attendees will have access to the exhibit room on Saturday and Sunday during the vendor show, which is included with the price of admission into the show. Below are some examples of the many models that will be on display at this exhibit: Star Wars: Imperial At At, Imperial Probe Droid, Snowspeeder, X-Wing, Cloud Car, Imperial Dispatch PPD Battlestar Galactica: Colonial Movers, Antique Viper, 31 Inch TOS VIper, Ragtag Ships, Colonial Shuttle Various Mechas from: Macross, Ma.K See more show news here: http://jerseyfestfair.com/?page_id=57

    We hope more of you will consider signing up for the "Advanced Sci-Fi Modeling" all day seminar (http://jerseyfestfair.com/?page_id=2237). It's a lot of bang for the buck, with 8 hours worth of demos and presentations by top guys for only $60. No matter how experienced you are, it will be great to see how other experts do what they do. Here is some more info on the seminar: Jason Eaton... "I plan to go over the ideas and solutions to lighting or adding a little dynamic motion to models. I'll show examples with lights in engines, cockpits, and navigation lighting. The Blade Runner Blimp was a much more intensive lighting and video challenge, so I'll show how that was accomplished, what hurdles were encountered along the way, and how you can use third party vendors to get what you need, if your skill set doesn't get you to where you want to go. I'll also show the new solutions I've come up with for a model I'm building right now, that features motion, lights, and sounds - all controlled by modified custom programmed Radio Control equipment. I'll have a Powerpoint presentation to show, and I'll have a few electronic boards on hand to show what they do." Mike Salzo... Subjects include: Best tools for trimming and clean up. Cleaning your parts Choosing the best adhesive for the job. Sanding parts Types of filler. Reinforcing parts Seam clean up. Installing armatures Enhancing kits. Planning the build, making the most of your time. Painting plan, making the most of downtime. Adding hardware, screws, nuts and bolts. Hollowing resin for lights. Choosing a stand General tips and tricks Q and A session. Kevin Derken... Advanced lacquer painting techniques on a vehicle using Japanese methods and aesthetics typically associated with Maschinen Krieger. Paul Bodensiek (owner of ParaGrafix Modeling Systems) You'll get to learn great ways to use and apply photoetching by a true expert. See him do it right in front of you so you can pick up the nuances and ask all the questions you like. Here is info on how to register: http://jerseyfestfair.com/?page_id=2237

    Hey gang: I know many of you guys are familiar with Ma.K kits and some of the great painters who build them. I learned much more about them more recently and was blown away by how awesome some of the kits are, plus how talented many of the painters are. Many of the hardware and metal painting techniques of course are applicable not just to Ma.K, but to any vehicle model and of course figures and bases that have parts conveying metal. The following link provides a nice summary on Ma.K kits with some great pictures: http://jerseyfestfair.com/?page_id=2787
