About Us

The hobby of scale modelling – creating small versions of bigger things – has grown and evolved incredibly over the past ten years, and we believe that there’s a need for a scale modelling association that reflects that change.

The hobby has evolved beyond the traditional scale modelling genres – planes, tanks, cars, trains, and science fiction – and now includes 3D printing, Gunpla, wargaming minis, and a host of other subjects. It’s our belief that everyone who creates small versions of bigger things has a lot in common and will welcome an opportunity to share their passion with others genres within the hobby.

Modellers Without Borders started as a shared vision between modellers from the US, Australia, and Canada… a truly international scale modelling community that bridges all scale modelling genres with a focus on respect, community, and our shared passion for our craft.

We believe that an organization founded on principles of inclusion, respect, learning, collaboration, and the hobby’s social and mental health benefits can be a force for good.

We believe that a scale modelling society should welcome all modelling genres, build community in-person and online, allow members to seek feedback or simply share their work without judgement, and support industry partners to ensure the long-term health of the hobby.

While we’re still new, we have a solid five-year plan to grow the organization and become a truly global force that will benefit our members, our partners, and the hobby we love.
