Note: For the purposes of this competition a standard kit, conversion or scratch build may be displayed on a scenic base, with or without figures either in or riding on the vehicle. If a vehicle is displayed with unmounted figures it becomes a vignette. If it also tells a story and includes more extensive scenery and multiple vehicles it becomes a diorama. However, with the Gold, Silver and Bronze system of marking each entry is judged on it’s own merits and entrants are not in competition with each other, so placing a model in the wrong class will not affect the final judging.
