Resoconto Hobby Show Roma primavera 2014 - Parte 2

Next weekend I was at Hobby Show in Rome.

There were few stands but I've found some useful things.

A romantic rubber-stamp that reproduce a... stamp :D by Stamperia.

I've found a PVC mould with sealife subjects as shells and a tiny starfish that I hope to use very soon. Untill now I've handmade starfishes but this one is really tiny, less than 1 cm (0.4 in), it will be useful for the shape but I have to work to make them more natural.

Two punchers, one for little tags to put on packages I ship, the other for plants in miniature. Unfortunately so tiny leaves are difficult to find.

Finally the best purchase, a miter cutter to cut frames, wood and plastic splints.

They have a safety block, the screws you can see in the picture, and it is marked at 45°, 60°, 75°, 90°, 105°, 120° and 135°. I've tried them and cut perfect corners.

The seller was a very nice French sir, his website is Cominter-dinosaure.

I've seen also other interesting materials and tools: powdered glitters, a little cutting plotter, Japanese mold clays and a lot of PVC for moulds. The next time...

As written in another post precedente post, on last weekend I went to the Hobby Show Roma at the ADMI (Associazione Dollhouse e Miniature Italiane) stand to promote miniaures for dollhouses, the ADMI team and to do short classes with Cristina Stacchini, Daniela Messina e Roberta Solari.

Hobby Show primavera 2014

Da un po' di anni l, una delle fiere dell'artigianato e dell'hobbistica più famose in Italia, si presenta in un doppio appuntamento annuale a Roma.

L'appuntamento autunnale è il più conosciuto, quello primaverile lo è un po' meno ma è pur sempre ricco di corsi e materiali.

On February the 28^th, March the 1^st and 2^nd an Italian fair, HobbyShow, will take place in Rome at Nuova Fiera di Roma and I'll be there with other miniaturists at ADMI (Associazione Dollhouse e Miniaturisti Italiani) stand.
There will be some short classes, for the list wee here.
The other miniaturists are: Celidonia with her amazing sculptures, Le Miniature di Eurosia with her wonderful works and Cristina Stacchini with her lovely workd, all in 1 inch scale.

My classes are two, a little shabby chic shutter

and a fantasy set.

See you at HobbyShow :)
