As far as I know there is. But I think Benno should update the website.

Good to know that FIGZ will take place again. :thumbup:

First Sunday of June, that will be the fourth! ;-)

Yeah 4th june 2017 indeed (every year the first sunday of June), I did hire the hall already.
Seems Benno has some troubles with the FIGZ site, a shame cause it doesn't help me to promote it right now.
But never the less, we will make a nice party on this 10th meeting together!
Looking forward to meet you guys again, and to see the work of the others in the group build for this year.
I will start promoting after the Dutch Wargame show Poldercon.
This year FIGZ will be again on a long weekend, so I hope not everybody is away with there family...
Please be a little patient, soon I start again with the info for FIGZ!!!

Hello all,

What about me running a workshop again at Figz 2017?
Last years tree making was fun and there were enough participants.

This year we can choose from:
- workshop 1/72 human figure sculpting
- workshop small wooden boat building
- workshop foam building cutting

Maybe participants and visitors of Figz who read this can tell us if they have a specific interest in one of these subjects?

I think we should charge participants of the workshop 10 euro's each to support Dad's wallet for renting that hall.

Support for Remco is a very good idea.

I am voting for foam building. I need a house for the tree of my wife from last year. And I am still amazed about your houses, shown here!!

Figure modelling sounds quite well. :-)

Posted by **Peter** on 27 Feb 2017, 20:10

Foam buildings it is for me! ;-)

Posted by **Das_Dirch** on 28 Feb 2017, 09:20

1/72 human figure sculpting would be great :-D

Posted by **Cryns** on 28 Feb 2017, 10:10

Gentlemen thank you so much for the interest and enthusiasm.
But you make it difficult for the organizers since I will only run one workshop that day.
So we need more votes and see what workshop subject is most wanted.
The other workshop subject will move automatically to Figz 2018 if Dad agrees.
