Diorama competition 2016 at the Day of open House
Win prizes worth 1.000 Euros

Dear Herpa-Fan

Show us your hidden talents, and present your best piece at our redesigned open house event. On July 9, 2016, we will display your diorama together with all other entries, and the audience will choose the most convincing miniature landscapes among them all. The winner stands to get a 500 Euro Herpa/Faller shopping voucher, second place 200 Euros and third 100 Euros.

And this is how it's done:
We are looking for inventive and/or true-to-detail displays of typical or remarkable scenarios from the world of miniature models. There are no limits to your creativity. For the audience, to be able to judge your showpiece objectively, please play by these two simple rules:
1. Your diorama shouldn't exceed 100 x 100 cm in size
2. In decorating it, please include Herpa models and accessories.

And off we go:
Please send us digital photos of your creations via email to: mandy.gerlach@herpa.de. A few explanations regarding your diorama would be helpful during the pre-selection process, which will be completed by June 16, 2016. Shortly afterwards, you will be notified if you have made it to the final selection round, which will take place in Dietenhofen during our open house from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. All participants of the final round will receive more information from us well in advance. During the final selection period, all visitors will have the chance to judge your model-building abilities.

While among those turning in appraisals, we will raffle three shopping vouchers of 25 Euros each. If you have any further inquiries, please send an email to the aforementioned address or call us at 49+(0)9824-951166.

We look forward to your creative model building ideas.
