OK...I'll take on Challenge #2, exactly as originally written up: matching the model to the box photo. I find it fun to build advanced kits to a degree where they precisely match what's shown on the box.

Don...
Ran into a little bit of a problem...The kit I had planned to use for this challenge, a coaling retailer kit - Catskill Coal Co.by Muir Models, is incomplete. It's missing materials (it's an all wood & cardboard kit) for the base, the coal conveyor and the coal chutes - near as I can tell up to this point. In order to finish it, I'd have to use some non-kit materials and do a little free-lancing, sort of. Would this be streching the rules (at best) or plain ol' breaking them..?? Please advice how to proceed. Thanks.

Bringing this thread back to life, is the end of the contest to be June 30th? Similarly, how and when do we go about posting images of the finished projects?

Go up to "current contests/challenges" and start a thread like the other contestants have already done. We welcome your entry, you do indeed have a few days before the end of the contest..
