Well, there's now 42 mins left, so hopefully everyone who wanted to enter will have managed to - I just want to say good luck and well done to everyone who did enter, and a big thanks to 3ff3ct for starting/running this competition.
Can't wait to see all those entries!

I have to drop out. Sorry guys, but the hours I am putting in at work (14 hours a day) just don't leave time for me to do anything other than crash.
Maybe next time.

We have a grand total of 12 entries, all amazing and totally off the wall! Such a great display of creativity and skill! The pictures have all be organised, the thread for voting will be put up this evening, I'm aiming for 8pm although it could be earlier or later as I have a bit of food shopping to do, along with other boring stuf you don't want to know about. A fantastic effort by all, I've loved organising this competition and have already got a few ideas for the next one

Well for my two cents, I would love to see one dedicated to the ubiquitus Chimera to go along with the spirit of the basic guardsman. I cant wait to see the entries given the level of painting of the members of this board.

Hey 3ff3ct, are you still doing these competitions? Because if not, I'd like to start one.

No, I was wondering if you are still holding the competitions, and if you're not I could start my own set of them.

Well I hadn't done any due to lack of interest, the entry on a few of the last ones was a bit non-representative. If everyone wants to do some more then I'd be more than happy to continue with them! You can of course give me a hand, Dadcro, any help would be much appreciated We did a 'winter wonderland' one last year, which was a bit restrictive. Assuming that everyone could get a hobby related gift for crimbo/hannuka/>insert celebratory winter festival here< we could do something that would be more inclusive, rather than who has the most snow flock knocking about.... Anyway, Ideas!!! Get them flowing!

Well I think many people didn't take part as they didn't see the point. It's a competition and there's pretty much 3 members who always get all the votes. I've taken part in two of them so far and I think I've gotten 1 vote so now I don't want to waste the money making a model for it when I could use it to add a model(s) that I'm going to use. Think I spent about £7 on my last model which works out as a £7 squadie in flak armour...not fancying a squad of them!
But still I do like the competition just think many are dishartened by the amazing work by some of the others.

But still I do like the competition just think many are dishartened by the amazing work by some of the others. The intention was to have a bit of fun, do some crazy stuff and have a winner so it has a purpose, rather than the winning being the purpose. I can certainly see your point though, and agree that that's probably why so few people entered the last few. HOWEVER I think that since everyone has gone OMG ROFL BBQ WTF GG PAINTING COMP (please don't ban me mods... ) over this thread again then Golden Guardsman shall rise from the ashes!So, a christmas free for all? ;D

then maybe rate the figures by a few different grades
1 - idea (or fluff) 2 - conversion work 3 - painting 4 - fun factor
etc etc etc
if you entered a figure that wasnt of the greatest quality of paint then perhaps it still could be highly rated because it had some other good thing about it...
maybe rate each grade out of 10 and reach an overall score, highest wins
like 'come dine with me' ... sort of
