Welcome to our website!
The High Plains Modelers club is a Northern Colorado chartered chapter of the International Plastic Modelers’ Society, USA.
Our club brings together plastic modelers from Northern Colorado, and Wyoming. We build scale and plastic models of armor, airplanes, vehicles, ships and anything else that we think is fun to assemble.
