Modelpalooza Entry Form Definitions
Divisions:
Adult
Anyone 18 and over but anyone 17 and younger can also enter. Judges will not know age of modeler
Junior
Anyone 17 and younger
Judges understand that the model was built by someone who is under 18 and will be more forgiving.
Categories:
Choose the category that best fits your model. Judges are typically assigned a category that they also build. This way a judge understands the nuance in building models in that category. Click here for more Info on categories.
Scale:
Enter the models scale. If there is no scale enter no scale or N/A.
Complexity:
This lets the judge know how much work you put into the model and details.
Out Of The Box - if kit instructions are included, judges will be able to confirm that the kit is out of the box and will judge based on knowing that nothing else was added to the kit. If no instructions are included, judges will score based on quality of model build. Simply have the instructions near your model on the display table at the show.
Kit+ Aftermarket and/or some scratch building - judges will expect a higher level of quality of build due to the added complexity of the build.
Scratch Built - Judges will score based on highest standards of quality since these types of skills lend to being a model master.
Special effects/Lighting - If you have added any of these to your model that was not included in the kit you can indicate it on the entry from. You can add a short description of the add ons in the title section or write a longer description on a seperate piece of paper and place it next to your model. This will help judges know you have done extra work beyond what came with the kit.
Collections
If you are entering multiple models as one entry to be judged as a collection, check yes.
Title:
A short title or description of your model. This can be anything that better helps define your model. For example, P-51D Mustang, 1984 Grand Prix Winner Ferrari, Sherman Tank At The Front 1944 etc. You can place a separate description with further detail if you wish to provide it.
