    "3. Every entry must send an email with a photo of the kit (or new parts in box"

    Does it mean all entries must be unassembled on the runners to participate?

      I think you just have to take a pic of your model kit and a piece of paper saying the date(hand written) to prove its not done before the competition starts.
