DOLLS
HOUSE AND MINIATURE SCENE LAUNCH WW1 IN MINIATURES COMPETITION
With 2014 marking
100 years since the start of the First World War, Dolls House and Miniature Scene
have launched a World War One in miniatures competition to commemorate this
catastrophic event. Sponsored by some of
the biggest names in the industry and launched at the September 2013 Miniatura
the competition will encourage miniaturists worldwide not only to put their
creativity to the test but to remember the four years of suffering and
heartache.
Launched on 20th September 2013 at Miniatura, the Dolls
House and Miniature Scene WW1 in miniatures competition provides an opportunity
to get creative and learn about the First World War plus win some fantastic
prizes. There are three categories for entries, clubs, individuals and under
16’s. Entries can be anything from a single miniature item to a whole diorama
scene and based on the Home Front or the Western Front. Miniaturists will have
until the 15th July 2014 to submit their entry. Full details can be
found in the November 2013 issue of Dolls House and Miniature Scene or by
visiting www.dollshousemag.co.uk/WW1competition
Lucie Roper, the editor of Dolls House and Miniature Scene says,
“100 years have passed since the First World War which affected every corner of
the globe and we felt it was right to mark the date in some way – it only
seemed fair to also invite others to do the same. Working alongside The Dolls
House Emporium, Jane Harrop Miniatures, Miniatura and Petite Properties we hope
to inspire the miniatures community to remember this event in the way we know
best, through our miniatures and what better way than to do this with a competition.
The DHMS team wish you all the very best of luck!”
And There's More......
Each month The Dolls House & Miniature Scene Magazine will also be featuring a project based on the WW1 theme on their website, free to all in with the aim to inspire. To kick off their series here is the first project......
