Would a Warhammer 40k subject qualify?

What about using alternate markings/paint schemes....ie. RotJ speeder bike w/police markings or X-wing w/Luftwaffe markings?

I once did a Naboo fighter in desert camo, complete with RAF roundels! Cool

Count me in!  I'll build an MPC X-wing fighter.  I'm gonna use it to try out some new weathering techniques...but also build a quality model.

Here's the box art:

2014 SCI FI HARD SCIENCE GROUP BUILD

START 22MAY14 (because one cannot argue with KAHN. see sci fi forum for explanation)

END 04JUL15 (INDEPENDENCE DAY)

anyone who has started can finish after the deadline and claim the badge.

This will be a "hard science" group build, no figures. a German PANTHER from Harry Tuttledove's 4 + 2 volume WORLD WAR series would be pushing it.

ASAU (Any Scale, Any Universe) so STAR TREK, STAR WARS, JULES VERNE, etc. pretty much any TV or movie or book.

CHANGE: having read the ipms nationals category, it looks i have to allow Mecha (Gundams, Robots, etc., from Kits)  if i want to build my TERMINATOR ROBOTS which is why i started this thing to begin with. so NO FIGURES. sorry for the confusion. pm any questions. thanks.

i would like to include a box art of the kit  as well as the usual info in the roster. the plan is to post a pic of the finished build next to the box art in the roster. i realize this could get out of hand but it's worth a try and i am doing it in BRAILLE SCALE GB.

Obligatory WIP pics to be posted.

Have fun, get crazy and try something different. i certainly am.
