Okay folks, what a fantastic competition! We received by far the most entries ever in a Dakka Painting Challenge, in fact almost twice as many as ever before.

So that naturally means the final five were some of the most equal we've ever had as well, which meant the task of judging was super-tough...in fact the 3rd place prize winner was so close that we had to go to a tiebreaker!

If you missed the contest rules and wanted to refresh yourself on the contest theme, please check it out here, or if you want to see the rest of the amazing entries, you can see them all here.

But anyway, without further adieu, here are the top 3 final prize winners (you can of course click on these pics to see a larger version of them in the Dakka gallery):


Our overall winner was entry #8: Saladin, Haqqislam Faction by Dakka user bou,
winning a prize of €100 euros worth of product from Corvus Belli (the makers of Infinity):




Our second place winner was entry #16: Tokusetsu Butai, Yu Jing Faction by Dakka user LeoPelo,
winning a prize of €65 euros worth of product from Corvus Belli:




Our third place winner was entry #15: Securiate w/ Combi-Rifle by Dakka user heartserenade,
winning a prize of €35 euros worth of product from Corvus Belli:




A big congratulations to our top 3 prize winners as well as a big thanks to everyone who participated...you all did an amazing job!


A massive thanks again goes out to Corvus Belli for their amazing support towards the Dakka community and if you haven't checked out the Infinity website or given the game a chance before, now's the time!

Congrats to all three, but obviously a big congratulations to bou, excellent piece and a worthy winner.

Also nice to see I voted for all three of these pieces.

I voted this three guys too (among other five, I think).

Congratulations all!

It has been IMO a hugely successful contest with a very high standard of entries.

There were several other pieces which I would have been happy to see in the last five.

Any chance the next comp. can be restricted to Dakka members who have more than 100 posts, or else a member for more than 3 months?

This comp reminded me of RC racing as a child with my mates - we were all set up for our local little race tournament we had organised, then a bunch of kids from the 'city' turned up with their fancy, mentally tuned 2-strokes and smoked the lot of us!

(I'm only kidding of course, I know the competition functions as a way to benefit everyone!)

Us old hats just need to up our game!

Congrats to everyone, and thanks to Corvus Belli, DakkaDakka, yakface and inquisitorlewis.

There were so many great entries for this... lots of inspiration

Congratulations to not only the winners but to everyone who participated.

Having the Infinity Painting Competition get the most entries ever for a Dakka Dakka contest is fantastic news as well.

Helping to grow the game of Infinity is one of the goals of such things, and it helps 'justify' the new Infinity sub-forum here too!

So, welcome to all the new users, and let's keep the momentum going!
