PLEASE NOTERDUCON 2019 will follow judging guidelines and regulations as described in the IPMS/USA competition handbook available
online at www.ipmsusa.org. Categories below have been setup to match IPMS guidelines where possible. The head judge reserves the right to split. A No Sweeps rule is in effect. A unique winner will be selected within each category for 1st, 2nd,
and 3rd place awards. Special Awards are exception to this rule. The RDUCON contest is open to all scale models except those winning a 1st, 2nd or 3rd place finish at the IPMS Nationals or a 1st place finish at an IPMS Regional contest.
CONTEST RULES
ELIGIBILITY All entrants must be registered. Absentee entries will be accepted if registered under the builders name - registration fees apply. All entries must be the sole work of the builder listed on the entry form. Membership in IPMS/USA is not required. The contest is open to all models except those that have won any award at an IPMS National Convention, or a 1st place in a IPMS Regional Convention or are Factory assembled & finished (i.e. die-cast collector cars & trucks, aircraft, armor, figures, etc.)
GUIDELINES Pre-painted entries will be allowed ONLY in the junior categories. Modelers of any age may enter any category ex-cept those designated for juniors. Entrants in Junior Categories are for modelers 17 years and under only. No nude or lewd mod-els. The Head Judge may exclude/remove any entry considered to be inappropriate or offensive. No one will be allowed to enter the contest area prior to registering ALL their entries. Reasonably sized bases are allowed in all categories, but will not be judged, except in the diorama categories. For powered entries, and/or bases exceeding 300 sq. inches, you must contact us in advance as contest space is limited.
CATEGORY SELECTION The Entrant will determine the category of each of their entries. If there is doubt as to the appropriate category, the Registrar may provide assistance. A model can only be entered into a single category. At the time of judging, the Head Judge will make the final decision if changes are necessary. All decisions of the judges are final. Attempts to influence the judges will result in immediate disqualification from all categories entered. No judge may rule on a category in which they are entered. Out-of-the-Box (OOB) entries MUST include kit plans with entry. Special award categories may be subject to additional requirements. Please visit RDUCON.COM for complete details.
