Welcome to IPMS India



IPMS is the International Plastic Modellers Society, which was founded in Great Britain in 1963, by modellers, for the benefit of modellers. Originally founded as the British Plastic Modellers Society, it soon expanded into a truly international body with many Branches across the world.


Although UK members may be scattered far and wide, many try and meet regularly in the local Branches of the Society. These meetings are informal occasions where members meet to learn more about the hobby and allied topics from each other, and show their latest creations. To get the best from the hobby, you need help initially to acquire basic modelling skills and, as a result, people from all walks of life join to help each other.
A Branch meeting gives everyone a superb opportunity to learn or contribute as much as they wish. IPMS has no class, age, sex, colour or creed barriers to overcome, nor does it lay down any minimum modelling standards. All you need to qualify for membership is an interest in plastic modelling as a hobby. Many new members worry about the high standards some IPMS modellers reach. Don't be put off by this, as with a little perseverance and help from other members, you can quickly improve the quality of the models you build also.
