February 2026

February we are changing things up. Our Challenge for the month is to send in a picture of minis out on the town. Have you taken your minis to show friends? Have you ever brought them to display at a show? Do you like to photograph them outside? To participate, please send in your picture(s) and a brief description to Katie Vitullo at ke.vitullo@gmail.com and we will post it HERE.

Minis on the Move

If you send in a picture, please allow us a few days to get it added to the challenge page!
