I didn't have to wait long after my previous post, now did I? :-D

Love, everything! Good luck monkeytroll and other judges. I'm having a hard enough time deciding on which one I want to vote for as People'sChoice D-:

Incredible display of amazing work everyone. So many different designs. So many great ideas. And again so much to take away from a great experience.

Voting now for peoples choice award. Gods thats hard enough!

And you last minuters " MOVE YOUR BLOOMIN ARSES!!" We need you in there to make it that much harder for poor Monkey.

Amazing work everybody! I've tried to sneak my entry in at the last minute...I've no idea if I'll make it but I just wanted to wish everyone the best of luck.
Cheers

PM sent to Monkeytroll, hopefully I made it before he logged in this morning. I wasn't able to finish painting, but got a decent amount done...could do with a bit more detailing and some weathering/rust/flaking paint...

Great competition and some swesome pieces! Really good work everyone! Looking forward to hearing the results! :-)

I've attempted to name your pieces, if you'd prefer another title please let me know and I'll amend these.



Once again, thanks to all who participated, and especially to those who finished....the dirty dozen fantastic four-teen as they stand at present

And for all who are reading this, PM me with your votes for People's Choice - that's your favourite piece, for whatever reason, which may not be the best piece in your opinion, but your favourite.

Updated with extra pics and entries

Requested extra pics received, andtwo extra entrants made it before I logged in...had to field some work calls so was later than expected Outstanding job people

Great line up, awesome pieces on display there, people!

As for the tittle, Electro-Fence sounds good enough, Thanks! Actually, I was between that and "Don't Whiz on the Electric Fence", but decided to take the safest road...

Cheers, and good luck with the judging!

PS: People's Choice vote will be on it's way soon, need to ponder some more.

Family issues came up and I couldn't get mine finished last night. Sorry MTroll, but I look forward to the next one

Cool cheers for running it and glad I made it in on time.

People's Choice PM sent. Tough call too. O boy, there is some very cool stuff this round. great way to end this year in scratch building.

Graven and I are both planning to have done our scoring today, so hopefully results will be posted tonight, possibly tomorrow.

In the mean-time keep those votes for People's Choice coming in, it would be great to announce that at the same time. That goes for any of you lurkers out there (I know some already have voted ), voting is open to all Dakkanauts

Great job everyone. What a turn out! Quality and quantity together. Glad I'm not judging this round (far too much writing would be involved) although sad I didn't even get started on my own piece.

Just a quick comment for each of you as I've not been terribly helpful during:
Tek Thornison: Nice carving work. Impressive tower, almost too impressive compared to the walls...

Andy_T: Great use of the razors. Maybe a bit more colour to break up the metal.

Magos: Nice work, like all the little details. Maybe a bit of plant-life could have been added with all that fertile soil about.

Red: Great build and design. Walls could have been individualised a bit more (posters, graffiti etc...).

trollmeat: Nice grubby, industrial look to them. Like the use of the Space Crusade board for the pic's too.

Llamahead: Good effort considering the size and scale. Difficult to think of what can be added at that scale, maybe some dirt tracks to show where the grass has been worn away.

OMN: Nice build and a for using a toilet. The dirt could be more dirty looking.

Cam: Good level of detail as I've come to expect from you. Keep working on what you're working on.

LT: Good use of something I didn't know existed, very effective. We've already covered the teeny-tiny gap in the fence.

GrimDork: Nice builds and good use of posters and blood. Could do with some dirt/litter in the corners.

EyeamRai: Nice idea to get organic shapes and love the colour. Could do with something to make it look dangerous (remnants of dead beings).

Vik: Good solid build. The plants work well. Keep heading in the direction you're going.

mekugi: Like the plastered brickwork look and the overgrown path. Keep doing that.

Fango: Nice builds. Coloured sheets could have done with weathering to match the grey ones.

Good luck to you all.

Thanks Dr H. I attacked the bases with a little weathering powder but didn't get far due to time constraints. Some scattered trash would also be nice, I'll probably make a batch at some point and touch up several terrain pieces at once.

Yeah, that was the plan. I started painting the night they were due...I'm actually impressed I got as far as I did.

So yeah, there will be more grime, nicks, dents, chipped paint, and weathering done to the rest of the panels...as well as some underhive graffiti. Anyone have any good references for Necromunda themed graffiti?

Magos: Nice work, like all the little details. Maybe a bit of plant-life could have been added with all that fertile soil .

Thanks forthe feedback my friend and I totally agree with you! A bit pf grass or shrub amd a punch of coloir wpuld look pretty good..... maybe I will add some anyway!

Just about to send my vote for the peoples champ! Fingers crossed everyome!

Excellent feedback Doc, but...

...Yes and no. Individualization would be nice, but not with posters or grafitti. That would be rather out of theme. Tilework, mosaics or geometric patterns-- Someone suggested Moroccan tile patterns-- would be fitting. Alas, no time to do them. But I will be experimenting, be sure of that

Ok, so with only minor back and forth my esteemed colleague inmygravenimage and myself have reached a decision and have the top three places locked down.


Anyone interested ?

Grim' & Fango: Yeah, I think many a time in these competitions it's time running out that gets people.

Not a prob' Magos.

Yeah, I'm with you there, Red. I realise that all your terrain lacks posters and graffiti on purpose. I had a mental block as to what could be added and wanted to distinguish what I meant for individualisation. Something to add a bit of colour, rather than shapes.

Go MT Go.

Make us wait till next year for the results? ;-)

Not really bovered MT!

You got to be joking, of course we are interested!!!!!

OK, I guess I'll let you in on it......

So it was indeed a very close run thing, there was some minor discussion about the top spots, but in the end there were ony 2 points separating 1st place from 3rd place.

Excellent work by all, and nice to see a variety of systems being represented.

Drum roll please......

In first place we give you :

OneManNoodles and The Thin Verdigris Line


In second place we give you:

Red Harvest and The Coral Corral


In third place we give you:

Camkierhi and his orkified walls



Votes for People's Choice were pretty varied, with a good number of you getting votes, but in the end there was a clear winner:

LittleTower and his amazing Electro-Fence of lighty-uppy goodness


Congratulations to all who entered, great to see so much terrain getting added to people's collections, looking forward to seeing you all in future events


And obviously a hearty round of applause for our nominated winners, I'll be getting prize packs put together for three of you in the next couple of weeks.

LittleTower, you get to bathe in the warm fuzzy feeling you get from the respect and recognition of your peers


OneManNoodles, you get the honour of deciding what a whole bunch of crazy people are going to be playing with on their worktables next


I'll try to form my notes on all your entries into some kind of cohesive form and get those posted tomorrow.



Thank you all

Sweet grats guys !! Looking forward to the next comp Noodles, no pressure

Firstly Thank you so much to Monkeytroll, and to Graven for stepping in. Great competition, awesome work by all. Hope that is enough words to not give away anything on the preview text!

Congratulations Guys, well deserved OMN, Excellent piece and excellent work, especially when you think you cast that lot all up yourself.

Given the competition I am honoured to get a placing, ALL the pieces are amazing in so many ways.

Great job MT, over to you now OMN, tough act to follow bud. Will wait Patiently honest!! Never know I might sit the next one out!

Congratulations to the winners, and well done everyone.

I'll have to try and incorporate a fence/wall into the next piece... and hope I get that done (started) so that I don't feel the need to incorporate both into the following round...

Look forward to what the next round will be.

Wow, those are fantastic! What a great comp!

Congrats to the winners! It's been a blast!

Thanks for the kind words, Dr H.

I'm looking forward to seeing what's next!

Congratulations fellers!!
That was a well run competition with a great theme monkeytroll, thanks for organising it!
I'm looking forward to the next one.

Well done everyone, it was a very tough contest to call and the scores were very tightly packed all over. A pleasure to see all your amazing works!

Thank you all very much, truly honoured! I'll be surely toasting to that tonight!

Congrats to the winners, ant to MT for putting it up and running it, great Round

Cheers to all, and happy New Year!

Ah man, I missed the end of this one and adding my vote for peoples choice :(

Great results though, congrats one and all, especially OMN...

Looking forward to Round 13

Congratulations one and all, especially to OneManNoodles. Beautiful work everyone. A worthy contest.

14 entries in total... Very cool. More is merrier, even if it stresses the judges.

My lesson learned was: finish early. I seem to enjoy things more that way. And really, enjoying the contest is the most important thing.

Great work everyone. Whats on for the next round I wonder .

Are we going to have to make terrain using noodles? D-:

Congrats to the worthy winners!! Awesome work and well deserved all!
Happy New Year and roll on Round 13! :-)

What....

OK, this is unexpected. Forgive me if this seems a little bit surprising.

Congratulations Camkierhi & Red Harvest. I was seriously expecting one of you two to take first, if not one of the other fantastic entries

My favourite was Little tower's, yes, because it lights up. I'll have to pick up some of that wire and have a play around sometime.

@Tek Thornison: Very nice, reminds me exactly of things I used to see in WD and the rulebooks etc.

@mekugi: Looks really nice the grass and graffiti is fantastic, a few things I'd point out, use a mix of orange and brown for bricks, a bit of brown to the mortar / cement. looking good

@MagosBiff90: Really realistic and grimy, I like how you made the corrugated sheet.

@DrH: Agreed, needed more dirt, I also left out the posters/ flyers that I would normally add.

@trollmeat: By all means, I'm sure his pastainess the flying spaghetti monster would smile upon such an act of dedication.

@BArnzie4Moop: Me too

@ALL entrants that finished: You should all be proud of what you have made, it's not always easy working from a blank canvas, and terrain pieces are almost always much larger than the models you might otherwise make and requires a certain amount of perseverance and imagination to complete such a potentially daunting project. So well done.


Thank you very much Monkeytroll for running a great competition, I hope the next will not shame such a high standard.
I'll try and come up with a sane theme for the lucky 13th round, I expect it'll be ready to launch by Sunday and will run for 12 weeks

Happy new year all.
Noodles

Next competition is up:
