2025 Space City Shootout Overview
This year there are 23 model categories described below. The featured marque is Chevrolet Camaro and the featured car type is Roadsters, however you may enter any kit that meets the definitions defined in the category descriptions below. All categories are open to modelers of all ages, but we have a special category for modelers under 16 years.
The entry fee for entrants 16-or-older is $10 for the first two models and $2 for each additional. For entrants under 16 the entry fee is $2. The first ten entrants under 16 years will receive a new kit take home.
A contestant may enter as many models as they wish in as many categories as they wish. However they should be aware there is limited space for displaying their models, particularly in the most popular categories. So come early!
If you would like to have your kit photographed for Fine Scale Modeler, please click the button above to download the form. Then fill it in and bring it with you to registration.
Please click either button below to download your contest registration form. Choose either the PDF form, or the Microsoft Excel form according to your preference. Both forms have the same content and both show the cumulative entry fee for each model you wish to enter.
Also, both forms have been set up so you can fill them in on your computer, without needing to write them out by hand.
Fill in your registration form and print it out before you leave home. Bring it to the registration desk when you arrive. This will save you a lot of time and will make it much easier to get your entries processed.
Please click the button below to download your table card. You must complete and print one for each kit you enter. Bring your table cards with you to the registration desk, where one of our staff will record your entrant ID on each card.
Fold the portion with your name underneath and place each table card under, or next to each of your kits when you place them on the display table.
DO NOT leave your name, or any personally identifiable details showing on the table card. This is so your entries remain anonymous during the judging process.
