TERMS TO KNOW AS AN EXHIBITOR

Please take the time to fill out your form as completely as possible. The judges want to know and give you credit for all of the original work you have done. To that end, please note the following terms as defined in the Open System of Judging and provide as much information on the form as possible based on the following terms:

1.     Scratchbuilt: At least 75% of a figure is sculpted by the artist, with some minimal use of commercially available parts (weapons, modified heads, hands, etc.). Basically, the figure is the artist’s original conception.

2.     Major Conversion: A stock figure(s) formed the basis for the figure(s), but extensive anatomy, facial, clothing, and equipment re-sculpting was involved; approximately 50-75% of the piece is original.

3.     Minor Conversion: The majority (more than 50%) of the figure is stock, but some degree of re-working of the pose, facial hair, uniform, etc. was performed.

4.     Ordnance: This category is for all vehicles (armor, cars, ships, planes, spacecraft).

5.     Ordnance Painters: For models where the artist only wants the construction, painting, weathering, and display judged. You can have detailing or conversion work done on a Painters entry, but it won’t be considered by judges.

6.     Ordnance Open: For models for which the artist also wants any conversion, detailing and scratchbuilding judged.

Again: Please use the box provided on the exhibitor form to detail the work you did along the lines above so the judges are aware of all of your efforts. Painters: PLEASE note the manufacturer. The more information you give the judges, the better. LEGIBILITY HELPS ENORMOUSLY. And thanks!
