Special Guest - Joey Montes
Navy Corpsman 2nd Class
Joey Montes is one of the hobbies big up and coming new stars. You wouldn't know it by looking at his amazing custom figure work, but he has only been in the hobby for about two years now. "I feel like I still have some learning to do from some of the other extravagant artists from around the world," Joey says. We think he is off to a terrific headstart!
Diorama, Museum of the American Soldier is proud to announce Joey will be joining our already talented ranks of artists. See his work up close at MBONESIXTH!
Joey is currently serving in the Armed Forces as a Navy Corpsman 2nd Class. He is happily married and father of three wonderful children.
Palmetto Light Artillery
MBONESIXTH '08 is proud to announce the Palmetto Light Artillery will be joining us.
The Palmetto Light Artillery was raised by Captain Hugh R. Garden in 1862. The men came from the areas of Sumter, Columbia, and Cheraw in South Carolina and fought in the Army of Northern Virginia for the rest of the war.
The modern-day Palmetto Light Artillery is an organization of volunteers who reenact the War Between the States in an effort to educate the public and to keep alive the memories of those brave men and women who sacrificed so much for the causes in which they believed.
7th South Carolina / 4th New Hampshire
MBONESIXTH '08 is proud to announce the 7th SC and the 4th NH Civil War Reenactors will be joining us.
Why do they do it? For the sake of those who fought, died and sacrificed, that all they gave never be forgotten. They encourage the study and exploration of history by participating in battle reenactments, living histories, school educational programs and civic festivals.
They will be on hand to perform drills, answer questions, have pictures taken and demonstrate weapon firing.
Seminar - Question and Answer
We've just added a third seminar to the show! Because of the overwhelming support and interest in the museum, we've decided to do a Question and Answer session. This seminar will give attendees the most up-to-date, inside scoop on "Diorama: Museum of the American Soldier!"
Seminar - One Sixth Scale Photography

One of the most enjoyable parts of our hobby is photographing our favorite figures. In the backyard or inside on a table top diorama, 1/6th scale photography can be fun but tricky! Bobby will be doing a seminar packed with helpful hints and tricks on getting the best 1/6th scale photos possible. He will cover lighting, composition, using bounce cards, posing and much more. Class length with be approximately one hour. See you there!
Seminar - Detailing Leather & Uniforms
by Graham Court of NewLine Miniatures
MBONESIXTH is proud to announce that Graham Court, owner of NewLine Miniatures, will be conducting his very first "how to" seminar at our show. Anyone who knows Graham can tell you his line of custom uniforms, real lace up boots, hats and accessories are the finest in the hobby. I always say, "the difference between a good figure and a great one is a pair of Graham's boots!"
As with all seminars at MBONESIXTH, Graham's presentation will be accompanied by text and photos in our program book, so you won't forget all the great stuff you learned.
Graham has announced the first 10 people that sign up for his seminar will receive a FREE German uniform. Email us at info@mbonesixth.com and register today!
