Contest Rules

• The contest is accessible to all.
• We prefer online registration (3 Euro/model). Use the registration document which can be found on this site. Registration at the show costs 4 euros/model. Online registration is open until May 31 2024.
• All payments, including for online registration, occur on Scaleworld itself.
• There is no limit on the number of models that can be registered per participant.
• Junior modelers under 16 years of age can register for free. Their models can be registered in a separate category (Juniors). However, if they wish, they may also participate in the other categories for free. 
• In the categories Military Vehicles 1/35 and larger, Military Vehicles Diorama, Aircraft & Helicopters 1/48, Figures Painting and Figures Open, one has the option to subscribe in a Masterclass category, in addition to the standard category.
• The participant can choose to participate in Standard or Master class. However, if a participant wins gold in a Standard category, this participant is required to register in the related Master category in subsequent years.
• Reference material and photographs taken during model construction may be shown next to the model.
• If the organization believes that a model has been entered in the wrong category, it can be moved to another category. This can never cause a competitive disadvantage for this particular model.
• Models may be taken from competition tables by professional photographers (international magazines and on the Internet). If you wish not to allow this, please report this at registration.
• If a model is not firmly attached to the base or foundation on which it is presented, please mark it on the registration card. This can help prevent accidents.
• Models may only be removed from the competition tables after the award ceremony.
• The organization reserves the right to remove any models from the contest which offend for any reason. If possible, this will be done in consultation with the participant.
• Although the organization does everything within its power to avoid this, the organization is not responsible for any damage or theft of models.
• Each category will be judged by at least two jury members belonging to the organizing club.
• Members of the organizing club do not participate in the contest. 
• Models are judged according to the ‘Open’ system. Therefore, multiple gold, silver or bronze medals are possible per category. However, some medals may not be awarded.
• We encourage you to enter as many models in each category as you like. We will however only award the highest medal won by your models in each category. 
• We encourage you to display your models within a category together as a display. This is more customary in figure categories, but you are welcome to do so in any category. This is of course no obligation and will not be taken into account for judging. 
• The jury’s decision is final.
• Participating in the contest implies that you agree to the rules.
