Mr Wildrice was kind enough to let me sign up and tell you guys about a contest that I'm running this year, so here I am to give you a few details on what it is. I've had a look around this site and there's some awesome looking builds here, so it'd be awesome to some interest from all you guys here.
Anyway, here's the deal: I've been thinking for ages about how to run a contest similar to the 1:1 America's Most Beautiful Roadster contest, and after chatting a few different people about it I've kinda got a game plan.
Here's the deal: Build a 1:24 or 1:25 roadster of any body style of 1937 or older, or design a body all of your own of a similar look. Built it full detail, curbside of slammer style.
You got until November 30th to get it done and submit your five best pictures. Voting will be done by the members on a few participating forums, including this one and will run one month. The first three weeks of voting, which runs all of December, will be followed by a 'final' for the 10 highest-placed cars. Of these ten, the award will be voted for the best received car of the ten.
I've got a gorgeous trophy designed which will go to the winner, along with the obvious bragging rights you'll get for the rest of the next year/your life!
If you wanna post WIPS, which I'm gonna seriously encourage, or discuss the contest, this is a good place to do it, (as well as here of course!): www.automodelling.com/forum.php?id=2&tid=21346
If you're stuck for inspiration think Oakland Roadster show (or Google it!)
Good luck everyone, and thanks to Bobby for his massive generosity and help with this little contest of mine
