Greeting, Hobbyists!

Welcome to our third community showcase and review thread. Please celebrate the crafting achievements of the community and offer both praise and feedback.

Our theme for this cycles was chosen by public poll and was presented as "elevation" as follows:
ELEVATION: Your build should rise to some height from the surface of the table; it could be a watchtower, antenna array, gantry, silo, crane, monolith, statue, etc. or it could be a hill, bluff, or other example of high ground. 40k's 5" LoS-blocking terrain is a good reference point.

I've also included a choose-all-that-impress poll just to generate some data to feed whatever, if anything, we decide on. Just mark any entries that you feel deserve a shout-out, either for close adherence to the theme, innovative or ambitious design, careful crafting on the build and paint, or overall impression.

Without further delay, here are this cycle's entrants in submission order, with additional images in spoilers.

Hmm, the poll says to vote for as many as I wish, but it only lets me select one radio button.

Is there an issue with my browser or the poll itself? There's some great stuff in here but I can't choose just one.

Nope, that was my error. Try it now that I've ticked the right box. Thanks for spotting it!

I like jadenim's rock tower. The piles of regolith at the top and bottom really sells that sense of erosion.

Ask yourself: have you rated a gallery image today?
