Ctmodeler Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Considering starting a build off. Nothing crazy . Just a couple of us pick a kit and all build it. No photo etch or aftermarket parts , just a simple build. Let's go guys !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oPROJECTMAYHEMo Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 I would be down for this in the future, still in the middle of my very first build. Once I have honed the craft I will definitely be up for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LouO Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 This could be kind of cool, maybe get some input here first. Then narrow it down to maybe 3 different kits (via voting) so there is some choice. What are you considering for a deadline though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ctmodeler Posted February 10, 2020 Author Share Posted February 10, 2020 I have no idea really. Like all of us busy working etc, maybe like a month or something . What kits you thinking ? I want something cheap honestly lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CabDriver Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 There’s a pretty cool one I’m going to take part in hosted on Instagram (although I’m sure some of the builds will end up on here)... https://instagram.com/34fordbuildoff?igshid=sthzbjnw6kim Got nearing 30 entrants so far...should be fun!

Ctmodeler Posted September 11, 2020 Author Share Posted September 11, 2020 How about ideas for the buildoff ? I don't have alot right now . Only one so far is this : convertibles. Any year any make . Something you wanna be driving this time of year when the leaves start falling and you're just cruising the country ! American makes only !!

Jantrix Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 Kenneth I've run quite a few build offs over the years and participated in many more, and I'm going tell you that the more you narrow the theme, the less interest you will have. So in my opinion - convertibles - great idea. Plenty of kits of all sorts. American only? I would recommend not adding this. Because people who would have ordinarily joined you with the Jaguar or Mercedes roadsters they have planned, have just been asked not to participate. More people join build offs when their planned build coincides with the build offs theme. Also short time frames are a killer as well. I'd go with a fall/winter type length. I wish you luck on the build off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zippi Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 This should be great to see what everyone comes up with for the Christmas themed rides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you missed it....unless it is a year long build off.... I totally wanted to jump in until I looked at the dates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
