For the folks in and around Houston, Dallas, or East Texas area...

A few questions:

First, do you know of any competitions in the area where I might enter a diorama?

Second, for those who have seen it, do you think The Kommandant’s New Driver would stand a chance at such a competition, against the big boys?

Anywhere around Dallas or Houston would do, since I’m halfway in between…

Any input whatsoever on the subject would be greatly appreciated.

The 2005 IPMS USA National Convention will be held from Wednesday July 20 through to Saturday July 23 at the Cobb Galleria Centre, Atlanta, Georgia.
I know this is far away but it’s worth it!!!
