Just tossing this out here.
I have scratchbuilt a couple rods for Halloween showing on the different forums I have been on over the years, and just might do one to show here this year.
I have good pictures of my first one, and very few good, descriptive ones of my second one, but will show them once I get the files, etc.
First one I started with a foam pumpkin from Michael's and added a skeleton Halloween decoration, and scratchbuilt everything else.
Second one I used a real live squash vegetable, a BRATZ doll, a small pumpkin head, and the wheels off a FTD pedal car flower-pot sort of thing. I scratchbuilt a wacky flathead for it, and other details, all Halloween themed. I was hoping the squash would rot and "deflate", but it just dried up.
Just thought it might be fun to share any Halloween type model builds we might have. I had a ton of fun making mine, and I would encourage anyone to do one- just let yourself go! 👻👽🤖💩💀
Don't want to make anyone "work", planning a contest, and all the related stuff.... just an idea.

You must be a mind reader or we are on the same wavelength or something . . . I've been thinking about a Halloween themed contest for the last couple of weeks . Something starting early next year and running thru Halloween . I think it would be a blast !

Sounds good Bob. I like the many months to think of something.... 😎 Maybe announce it on Valentine's Day 😄

I think that's better than trying to get something going for this Halloween , time is too short and it feels like we just finished the M2W contest . This doesn't mean you can't build something , I'm sure your head is full of crazy ideas !

I have been thinking of posting up some artwork.... in the proper receptacle of course, but wonder if we could include original artwork, of a proposed build, or just a 2D Class, as part of any contest, themed "show"..... 🤔 Maybe a "WANNABUILD THIS" class?
