SMA BIG SPRING CONTEST 2013

ENTERING THE CONTEST
There will be a form available as of March 1st where you can upload your 'unstarted kit with date in the photo' photo and a paypal button for paying the entry fee.

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO START ON MARCH 1st.

You could enter April 21st or May whatever - there isn't a 'deadline' to enter other than the obvious end of the contest May 31st. (actually you could enter May 31st, but not June 1st.)

If you decide to enter another kit down the road, as long as it isn't previous started (with the exception of the All-Open) that is fine.

Also...If you want to only join the contest in April and haven't started the kit that's cool. So you 'enter' with a date stamped sprue shot - say April 7th, then start the build and finish by the end of the contest.

Date: March 1 - May 31, 2013
Categories: Armor, Aircraft, Auto, Sci-fi, Figures, Watercraft, All-Open (any genre)
Fee: $5 per entry
All builds entered into contest, other than All-Open category must be new build as of March 1, 2013.


There will be a *special* award for juniors (chosen from all categories not including all-open)
No dioramas will be accepted this year, other than in the All-Open Category. Photos of kit only in the 6 'normal' categories.

Here are prizes that we have to date.

BADGER AIRBRUSH
I'm thinking a little different this year though - as the guy who finishes first least needs a better airbrush, so we'll do 60 color paint sets for first in each category, Patriots and a 7 color paint set for seconds in each category, and Kromes for third in each category.
