Excellent work! Good luck everyone! I wouldn't like to be in a judge's position!

Gods this judging mallarky is very very difficult. So much brilliant work. Got some results in and it's a close run thing at the moment.
All you guys who entered, but could not finish, please could we see your work. Post us up some images to inspire future efforts.
Also Please PM me your votes for the Special Effort Prize. This is not based on if its the best model, but the effort and improvement someone may have made in their entry. Or thinking outside the box, and something just really cool.
Again thank you all for making this a great competition, and "shakes fist!" making it so blooming hard to judge.

Sorry to hear that.
Maybe a starting point for the next comp's theme? A scratchbuilt - and riveted - soul making contest, for former judges who gave it all in the line of duty?

Billy will get farther in life if he learns to spell. Then he can become a lawyer and get the courts to make Timmy tear down his own tree house. Timmy's tears will taste better that way. Just sayin' XD.
I PMed you Cam w/ my vote but I think it got deleted, so I've sent it again.
Judging is hard. I used to manage painting and appearance judging for a large east coast tournament. It is real work. My symapthies to the judges. But it should not have a soul cost. That only happens when you have to hold your nose and pick the least bad. Not the case here at all, unless my eyes are lying to me

I think this is the first one to have this level of participation, actually. This is a good thing. One thing that Cam may have forgot to mention, the 1st place winner ALWAYS runs the next comp. No pressure to start the next one right away, but Cam ran this one properly, it's a good format to follow IMHO.
so, for Cam....

I would like to say this has been amazing, thank you all, everyone, for a brilliant experience.
The judging has left us slightly lesser men, as we all had to dig very deep.
So here we go.........
1st............Littletower.
[
Simply to staggeringly amazing, such a big project with great detail.
2nd..Red Harvest.
Too pretty for words. Stunning work, that is absolutely inspirational.
3rd..Viktor von Domm.
Just amazing, epic proportions and amazing detail.
I can honestly say there was nothing between these three entries, points in it. You have truly done some amazing work and thank you for making us all sit back in awe.
( I literally sold a piece of my soul to get a result here.)
Thank you.
As to the Special Effort Award.
mars2024.
For your pure use of junk, and amazing weathering.
I will be in touch with the winners shortly for prize giving etc.
Again thank you all so much, please continue to make these contests so great.
I am afraid Littletower the flame of rivethood passes to you for that one.
