Well, now that's the rub, isn't it? The P stands for plastic, but everyone welcomes any modeling material. The trick is to build a contest model to the contest standard regardless of the medium.
However, unlike their Colonial counterparts, it's my understanding that IPMS contests in the UK and Ireland are more like "shows" than contests. This means those who come to display are as welcome as those who come to compete.
I'm a competitor, not a displayer. But, were I the latter, I would also display some unbuilt kits, namely printed sheets, to introduce casual viewers to the art of paper modeling!
Drink a pint for me!
