Shaping the Future of Fine Scale Modeler: Insights and Innovations
Manage episode 438442945 series 2597540
Have you ever wondered how a beloved hobby magazine can evolve and thrive in today's digital age? Join us as we explore the fascinating history and future prospects of Fine Scale Modeler magazine. Featuring insights gathered from Aaron Skinner and Tim Kidwell at the IPMS National Convention and an A Scale Model Podcast's exclusive vision-sharing session with Firecrown Media's CEO, Craig Fuller, we revisit the magazine's journey from its 1980s roots under Kalmbach Publishing up to its current direction. We'll reflect on the magazine's early days dedicated to skill development and how it adapted through changing revenue streams, all while expressing our passion for a return to detailed, skill-based builds.
Inspired by high-end European publications, we brainstorm innovative ways to enhance Fine Scale Modeler's quality. Imagine longer, more in-depth articles, comprehensive product comparisons, and reviews that elevate the magazine's value. We discuss the importance of maintaining affordable pricing to attract casual readers while leveraging digital content to guide them to new online resources. As lifelong fans, we believe in the need for a strong American modeling publication and encourage listeners to share their ideas for improvement, which we will discuss further in future episodes. Join us in this compelling discussion and be part of shaping the future of Fine Scale Modeler.
