and how many do you have completed?

My goal is to bring 10 kitbashes this year.

I have 4 completed, 4 in progress, and 2 not started yet.

I have seven completed (five figures, one bust and one vehicle) hopefully will have one more completed in time.

Wait.

You mean you can finish kits before the show?

I'm usually finishing mine up in the hotel on Friday night.

Last year I was casting kits in the parking lot. Guess what will never happen again.

Why not? Does the hotel have a "No-Casting-Resin-in-the-Parking-Lot" policy? I hate those! :wink:

Preach it, brother! Most people don't realize what a "working weekend" it is for us kit producers/casters...

Just finished my last entry yesterday.
So now I'll have 20 kits and 3 dioramas this year.

23 completed entries - wow- that is very impressive!

I am making slow but steady progress:
4 finished,
2 very close to complete,
1 about 70% complete,
3 planned (but its going to be tough to get those completed in time)

I had planned on bringing Roostercat's 4' Kothoga, but am behind working on it due to the fact that I have had some family issues pop up.
I am still planning to try and get it done, but I am not going to rush work on it. So we will just have to see.
I might still bring one or two if that doesn't work out.

And its a good bet that many of them will be incredible builds. I always get wonderful ideas from every contest I see.

Well, I have 2 that are 'this' close to being done.
Another 3 that shouldn't be any trouble at all to get done.
And another 3 that are kind of "iffy" at this point, but I'm still plugging away at them.
