NRS - Landowner Feature: Will Pattison, NM

Greetings!

Welcome to the March 2022 Edition of the NRS Newsletter!

Landowner Feature: Will Pattison, NM

Will Pattison (left), one of our New Mexico landowners, was featured on the cover of issue 99 of the Meng AIR Modeller Magazine, a globally renowned aircraft modelling publication. His "War-Weary Warhawk" (plane) was highlighted for his creative approach with heavy weathering. Pattison, who survived a devastating spinal cord injury suffered in 2009, built scale models as a boy and got back into it as part of his physical therapy program. He now sells work to collectors and has been featured in a number of magazines and books.

"These fighters were truly filthy and as soon as I started collecting Banshee photos, I knew where this project was going." - Pattison commenting on the approach he found himself taking once he started the project.

Pattison's weathering detail is so well done, it's truly hard to tell this aircraft is 1/32 of the normal size. Detail like this could only come from a true artist like Pattison, who is also a gifted photographer. Well done, Will!

March Conference Review

In addition to NRS’ CEO Pat Pelstring (right), Evan Schmitt – Director of Finance, Brady Evans (left) - Director of Wind Development, Chase Cheshire (center) - VP of Business Development, and Ben Klassen – General Counsel attended the conference and had the opportunity to meet with high-level delegations across the entire renewable energy space including utilities, financiers, equipment manufacturers, and other developers.
