For the overall idea of MEDIA MODELLING, continue to scroll down
Remember that this show isn't 'just' film and television, and certainly isn't 'just' science fiction and fantasy - though of course we are not excluded that!
We are looking of modelling subjects - as the MEDIA MODELLING logo says, not only Film and TV, but Books, Comics, the Theatre, Video Games, items in the News, and expanding media and publishing even wider - how about images that have appeared on Record & DVD Covers? (Scroll further down for examples...)
And you can win your own

continue scrolling for yet more ideas!

... examples from record covers - as depicted here by ZZ Top |
|
To give everyone even more ideas of what we'd like to be displayed, a reminder of the ideas from the first show web page... Below - a number of examples, the top three have the sort of 'details' alongside that would be nice! |

|---|---|---|
 |
 |
 |
The Airfix Westland Lysander is build as from the 1960s BBC TV series Moonstrike Here is small cover of the relevant Radio Times to illustrate this, plus an image from the series |
An old Jo-Han 1961 Rambler American built as the one used by the Solomon family in 3rd Rock from the Sun Details have been printed out to explain this |
This Italeri Cessna kit was issued 'as from a news story' when the German, Mathias Rust, landed it in Moscow's Red Square in 1987 A report on this is included to explain it - as does the Italeri box itself |
Below : yet more ideas that show the wide range of subject-matter you could tackle - from individual models of craft, vehicles and figures, to collections, simple scenes or more intricate dioramas Yes there are some spaceships and aliens in there, but there's a lot more besides This wide range is what we want for MEDIA MODELLING |

 |
 |
Even radio can give ideas, (left) here's Tony Archer's (rather clean) Little Grey Fergie tractor - the Heller kit - as from The Archers
On the other hand, (right) there's a vast amount of ideas with Japanese Robots! |

 |
The Minions (left) could create havoc or alternatively, create many options,
While (right) Number 6 is still |
 |
 |
(left) A scratchbuilt, 'Greased Lightning', as from Grease, (left). It would of course have also fitted into the previous show, AUTOMODELLISMO
And, (right) OK it's SF, but it's not all spaceships... |
 |
 |
(left) Why not the theatre - it's all 'the media'? Here's a model with a difference of the Regency Theatre
Whereas (right) Wallace & Gromit - and Shawn the Sheep could provide countless ideas |

OK, (left) science fiction, but also a 'car ' - the Space Chariot from Lost in Space (Moebius kit)

OK it's Star Trek (left) but - with a nod to the previous show Extreme Weathering While (right) - how about combing 'media' - here Wallace & Gromit - fly Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (sort of...) |
 |
 |
Yes (left) there will always be spaceships in science fiction - and 2018 was the 40th anniversary of Blake's 7
But (right) these take ideas of planes and cars found in the W.E.Johns' Biggles books |

MEDIA MODELLING replaces two of our previous shows - AUTOMODELLISMO and Extreme Weathering - though - as indicated above - there could be elements of both in MEDIA MODELLING But - and very important - in no way does it 'replace' our major 'space, science fiction and fantasy' show smallspace |
