Welcome to the Rat / Rod Model Kit Bash II ! Last year we had so much fun with the innaugural version of this Build Challenge, that there was no way we couldn't follow it up with Version II !
I'm so stoked that the thread from last year continued with momentum throughout the whole year, with 36 pages and over 700 comments and posts! We had a strong group of builders, with some very creative builds last season. Can't wait to see who and what we get this season!!
The rules are few and pretty easy. The idea is that you take two or more disimilar model kits and 'bash' them together to form a new and crazy creation of it's own. You can use parts from kits, scratch build parts of your own, or 'rat rod ' it by using items for which model building is not normally intended.
The official Rat / Rod Model Kit Bash ( RRMKB ) Challenge will officially begin October 15 and run till December 15. We will have a week of voting on the finished projects, and be all 'wrapped up' by Christmas.
( yes, I worked a holiday pun in there; get used to it!)
All the builders will post their builds on this one thread. To keep them more defined and so others will know when you are making a new post about your build, and not just commenting, start it off with the name of your build in all caps, and bold too, if you can. Followed by your builder name. Like this:
1 ON THE HOLE AND 4 ON THE FLOOR ~ OddJob
My kit bash build this year will be based around the Weird oHs model kit Huey's Hut Rod, and another hot rod car model yet to be determined.
Expect a lot of 'outhouse' humor and some wacky fun as I relive my childhood days of building Weird oHs and other models in my upstairs attic bedroom. Let the Testor's fumes begin!
Here are some of the builders who participated last year, forgive me if I miss anyone. Let the fun begin!
