Rat Fink fan? Weird Ohs model fan? Hot rod car fan? Born with styrene in your genes? THIS IS FOR YOU!
This is the first ever on Rat Rod Bikes forum "RAT / ROD MODEL KIT BASH CHALLENGE" ! What is a kit bash you say. Here's the dealy boo: You take a model car kit, and you take a model kit of the Weird Ohs / Rat Fink / other such character variety, add some scratch built parts and tid bits here and there, then you;
BASH THEM TOGETHER!
The rules will be few and far between. But basically, these are the requirements for the challenge:
1. Rat / Rod Model Kit Bash starts on September 15 and goes till December 15, 2020. The builds must be started and completed between these dates. You may use disassembled parts from previously made kits, as well as partial kits to begin.
2. All builds need to include at least one car / vehicle (boat, plane,motorcycle,etc) based kit, and one kit of a completely different variety, such as the Rat Fink themed kits or the Weird Ohs kits. Scratch built parts are strongly encouraged!
3. Documentation of the builds will be in this thread on the forum, and all builders will share the same thread. When you post a new stage of your build, please start your comment with the name of your build; like this example I will use for my build. It should look like my first comment post on this thread following the description of the kit bash.
If you have any questions, now or along the way, please direct them to me, OddJob, as I will be monitoring this challenge along the course of the build-off / kit bash.
The weather will soon turn cooler, time to huddle in your cozy corners around the world , pull out the Testors paint and glue, sharpen your cutting tools, and air up the air brush! Here we go!
