Dear Friends,

after the success of the recent Italeri “contests on line” dedicated to aricrafts,  trucks & trailers,  military vehicles and ships scale models, we are proud to introduce the next “contest on line” dedicated to the world of helicopters.

Italeri has a wide range 1/72 and 1/48 scale helicopters from the "long lasting" UH-1D to the modern AW-101 Merlin. We believe that you can find your most suitable model to do a good job.

Send us by e-mail your scale model pictures of helicopters to our e-mail address photo@italeri.com before 31st  May 2013.

We will evaluate them, according to the parameters indicated here below and we will publish on line our “top chart”

We will evaluate your works in the following categories (from 1 to 5 points)

1 – Historical consistency

2 – Modeling skills (assembly, painting, ..)

3 – Scenario (aging, setting…)

4 - Picture quality (light and shadow, angle of the photo, absence of disorder elements ..)

5 – Supporting description (text able to describe the operational aspects, historical use and modeling details)

The "top chart" will be done according to the sum of the scores collected in the categories listed above. The best scale models, together with those models who have got our interest, will be published on line with its scorecard.

Italeri also reserves the right to assign to the top score scale modes, published on line, some compliments.

Good luck …
