Group Build Description: This campaign covers everything that is in the Sci-Fi universe or the alternative history.
This could be anything from Star Wars, Star Trek, or any other Sci-Fi franchise.
Alternative history subjects are also included. So all your “what-if” ideas belong here as well. For example panzer 1946 or luftwaffe 1946 ideas. All alternative history for all historical periods are included.
Any scale or medium is allowed.
Remember to post a starting picture.
Kits cannot be more than 25% finished unless they are unfinished projects from the previous 11 versions of this campaign.

A Note about Awards: Your model can only be entered in one campaign to be eligible for an award.
I have three kits. One of them is a resin figure, the second is a Revell Star Wars set slightly started and the third is a scratchbuilt starship. As I am tackling a BMP-1 in the Made in USSR (2025) campaign and have a focus to complete that, I will select the one to build in this campaign in January. Also will upload the start photo.
All the three does worth to participate… hard to choose!
I’m in; however, I don’t know if I’ll roll the previous campaign’s entry or start something entirely new. Besides cutting the pour blocks off and sanding the resin, I didn’t make much progress in 2024’s Sci-Fi Campaign basically because of lack of workbench time, the Japanese resin kit had no pins-to-holes, and the instructions were vague.
I’m unsure if any of you are familiar with it, but I’m planning to make a what if/sci-fi build based on the retrofuturistic themed Fallout series of video games/tv show. I’ve been a big fan of it for a while and I’ve recently thought about how afvs would be used in Fallout’s post-apocalyptic setting; so I’ll be making an Enclave (post apocalyptic US government remnants) MBT-70/KPZ-70 that’ll be modified to match the Fallout universe more.
I’ll be using the Dragon KPZ-70 kit with some modifications that I’ll plan out more of later. I’m already planning to make the commander’s 20mm autocannon into a plasma/gauss machine gun, due the Enclave’s frequent use of them in the series. Also I’m debating on how to paint it, I think a red desert/desert MERDC as an “experimental camouflage” could be cool, but if any of you know of any cold war experimental US camos I’d love to know!
Looking forward to another round. My intent will be this Bandai Zaku II. I don’t know much about Gundam, but this looks pretty cool. I will likely change the color scheme significantly, but haven’t decided which way to go yet.
Well, depends on what luftwaffe? If it is WWII luftwaffe it definitely fits the bill. If it is the Bundes luftwaffe that actually used the MiG-21 for a short while, it is not Sci-fi or What-If.
Interesting idea! However logically the post WW-II Luftwaffe of Marshall Göring would use a Panavia Tornado (as original German plane) instead of the that-time-demolished Soviet Union made MiG-21. But surely, it is your choice and to be honest, the WWII German camo will look good on a MiG-21. I will follow your build with interest!
