Kamping Kitbash #1 Gent

The second edition of Kamping Kitbash is a collaboration between Nerlab (Gent) and Sickhouse (Enschede) dedicated to bring people together through TableTop activities. Our goal is to unite enthusiasts worldwide, infusing the hobby with a fresh artistic spirit and fostering collaboration to create a vibrant and diverse community. 🌍

We have been funded by Erasmus+ to organize two weekends full of events focused on kitbashing, miniature making, RPGs, and tabletop games, with a special emphasis on indie games and supporting grassroots initiatives. 🎮🤝

1st weekend: 13-15 of September 2024, Gent, Belgium

2nd weekend: 1-3 of November 2024, Enschede, The Netherlands

Kitbashing as our philosophy

Kitbashing is the practice of making scale models out of pieces from other kits to assemble a model of your own creation or in a different way than indicated by the model’s instructions. You’re kitbashing if you are ‘bashing’ the different kits together. We embrace the spirit of kitbashing in everything we do. We don't follow manuals; we co-create and experiment, merging ideas and people to create something truly unique.

Who is it for?

By and for miniature-obsessed creatives, nerdy artists and imaginative role players.

Are you looking for creatives who share your passion for the hobby? Do you want to push the boundaries of what art in miniature can be? 🖌️ Are you excited to spend a whole weekend experimenting, playing and talking about your favorite TableTop element? Or have you been looking for the most insanely fun way of getting into the TableTop world? Join us at one of our events!

Theme? Let's think and experiment!

We want to connect the web of creatives and hobbyists to exchange knowledge and enable artistic cross-pollination. 🐝

Furthermore, we want to dig deeper into the possibilities of what gaming and art can do and mean for us as people. 🎲 We want to ask interesting questions and create around the themes of identity to find a more powerful way of expressing ourselves collaboratively.

💡We can learn from everyone and anyone has something to teach. Kamping Kitbash is an open and inviting space where you’ll be challenged to reconsider notions of identity and cooperatively express yourself. We strive to build a diverse community that is not afraid to experiment and share knowledge. We also want to make the funniest, grossest little goblins 👹
