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.

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

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.

Lots of stuff in the works but I'm promising myself to get at least one entry finished during my holiday break from work.

Trevor, Spark, good luck making progress this week !

I hope to complete another one this week as well.

When, oh when, will I win the lottery so I can quit working and join your 'Merry 'Bashing Band' I wonder???

I feel ... like such a .... SLACKER!

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.

[barad_dur]

Way to go Trevor !!
I will be lucky to complete my goal of only 4 !

[tay666]

Mine are a lot smaller than yours.

[ShaneM]

I look forward to seeing more of your beautiful bashes at the Show this year sir

[barad_dur]

Thanks Shane!

I plan to bring the Death Dealer on Hell Hound vs Demogorgon (finished) , and Griffin vs Dragon (in-work).

You can see all the work-in-progress pics for these kitbashes in the Kustomizers section of this clubhouse.

Oh I have been seeing the in progress

[barad_dur]

Man oh man , I am way behind schedule getting my entries completed - panic is staring to creep in …

Hoping to spend several days this week dedicated to working on my entries all day long …

[tay666]

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.

[bucketfoot-al]

Good luck guys - I'll be thinking of y'all and wishing I could be there!

[barad_dur]

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.
