#1 Post by barad_dur »

I have already started working my entries for 2025 model contest

I have 2 kitbashes that I definitely plan to bring, and another 10 potential candidates to choose from, so not sure total number yet.

Entry status as of July 9, 2024

2 in progress

TBD planned


Please share your 2025 wonderfest model contest build status in this thread - thanks !

:D

I haven't even gotten to my bench yet.
I just got all my pics from the last show finished up, and now my car broke. So depending on when parts come in, maybe I can start getting back into the swing this weekend.

I've got a bunch on the bench, but haven't had any bench time this month.
Hopefully I can find time during the holidays.

I have 6 ready to go to the show, with a bunch more in the pipeline.
Just need to get this bathroom project in the rear view mirror so I can get back to the workbench.

I dream of having time to get back to my workbench.

At this point I am just hoping to have enough time to finish the 3 kits that were closest to done when I had to suspend hobbying for home improvement.

Only 10 days left to complete my contest entries and I still only have 1 entry (composed of 3 kits) completed.

I am really struggling to get the paint job acceptable on my other planned entry; the Dragon vs Griffin.

Panic mode…

Remember Joe, Winston S Churchill also said:

"When you're going through hell, keep going!"

OK , it may be only metaphorically relevant, but I think you get the idea. 😁

Keep at it. We are all pulling for you. 💥⚡🎇👀🥳
