Not sure if a rule for that has been written down.
In another case it was deemed that it is the time when the whif is posted here for the first time that counted. This seems to be drawn in 2014, though. I'm sure somebody more authoritative will chime in.

Gentlemen,

I consulted the archives and found this post from 2009: https://www.whatifmodellers.com/index.php?topic=26305.msg385635#msg385635 (https://www.whatifmodellers.com/index.php?topic=26305.msg385635#msg385635).
I clearly states that in order to be eligible for the whiffies, it has to be POSTED to the forum in the year of the contest.

So I would rule that this profile does indeed qualify for the 2023 whiffies.

TomZ

Thanks Tom but does this qualify? I only painted an existing 1 piece model.

Then in any case for "Best Paintjob"!  ;)

My last reply was to the Ukrainian tractor pulling a Z tank...just saw my Hellcat is in here too. Also not a What If! 

Thank you so much!  But not a Whif.  Are we adding a Real World Build category for 2023?  I would support that completely.

Gentlemen,

Last night the Academy had an emergency session to drink a lot of whisky discuss this and I can now officially announce that the 2023 whiffies WILL feature a category "Best Real World Build". Eligible will be all builds and art that are meant to depict real world situations and are not obvious whifs. However there will be NO judging based on complete accuracy and number of rivets! The emphasis is on "meant to depict".

Fred Zenrat's backstory for the 'Martin B-28 1/2 in the 'Best Backstory' class, what else?

QuoteNo one is quite sure why Martin built the first B.28½ Canberra although there are plenty of theories;  was it a cost saving pre-production test build for the B.57?  did it result from an error converting the English Electric drawings from Imperial measurements to American feet and inches?  was it to save money on infrastructure?  or was it part of a plan to trick enemy defences into thinking that attacking aircraft were further away until it was too late?
Whatever the reason (and nobody at Martin is talking) the first Half-Can1 was rolled out of Martin's Baltimore plant and took to the air on 19th July 1953.
Visually the basic airframe was a half scale version of an English Electric Canberra PR.9.  The only variations being the undercarriage, the cockpit, and the engine nacelles.  The use of General Electric J85 Turbojets necessitated increasing the diameter of the nacelles above that of a true half scale replica, the cockpit and canopy had to be redesigned to enable the single crewman (or woman - thank you Reg) to fit, and the undercarriage were lengthened.  This of course leads to more questions such as why did Martin build a half scale English Electric Canberra and not a half scale B.57?
