I promised you guys a contest by the end of the week so here we go.
The contest subject is ARTILLERY. Any flavor you wish including: coastal, anti-aircraft, heavy, anti-tank, rockets ect.
Prize is a $300.00 Admiral Toys gift certificate + $100.00 Olive Garden or Red Lobster gift certificate ( your choice).
Contest ends July 1, 2007.
I am the only judge in this contest.
Scale is 1/18th scale only.
Be original!
I will judge on the basis of difficulty of piece attempted, attention to detail, historical accuracy, quality of construction.
As usual, have fun, and show us those mad skills of yours.

WOW! What a prize!
I think I'll enter this one.
I'm not sure what I'll do yet, but I'll think of something.
Thanks Kamikaze!

This has kind of turned into an annual thing for me to get more of you guys to
kitbash your models and pass the time between new releases. I hope to get the big three to have an annual contest someday. Have fun. You should have plenty of time for this one.

Is there a limit to how many customs we can enter? I may have time to do a couple projects.

I've got a ton of bottlerockets left.
Sounds like a plan...

Is a cannon that fires real .22 legal?
Will we get scored on accuracy and penetration too?

Only if you accurately penetrate a piece from the opposing side. Points are deducted for friendly fire

. Anyone decided what they're doing yet. I'm feeling lost.

I have an idea, but haven't worked out the logistics. All I'll say is its over 50" long

. Also thought about doing a panzerjagerwagen to salvage what's l left of my RC Panzer

Is there any particular scale for this contest?? I have a 1/144 M3 37mm AT gun I converted from a Popy pak 36 because I needed one in my armored infantry company. I may enter it if scale is not an issue.

Yep. Scale is 1/18th scale.
