It’s already Fall, so it’s time to kick off the Fourth Annual 1/87 Vehicle Club Holiday Model Contest. There will be two categories: Holiday Scene and Holiday Model. The first category is for dioramas or layouts featuring one or more 1/87-scale vehicle models in a scale scene. The second is for individual models.
To enter: 1. Build a diorama or a model (you can also modify an existing scene or model). 2. Take a photograph. 3. Send it in. Prints should be sent to:
