PHOTO SUBMISSION CHANGE / REQUEST

I have to change things just a bit- please email all photos directly to my email address skalkbloodaxe@outlook.com

Reminder- I want 6 photos (front, side, rear, side, top, and scale). More photos than the minimum are allowed and will be reviewed during the judging phase.

Apologies for the change. If sending photos via email is not possible then send me the link wherever they are posted and I'll log to it.

There's a bit over 189 hrs left before contest closes. Still plenty of time to enter and submit an entry.

If you have already submitted your entry this request does not apply, you are all set.

Phew! I'm all submitted and nearly had a panic attack then Skalk :-)

Mine is in, along with excessively large pic files pleased with how one very experimental weathering technique worked, as for the rest that's ob the hands of the Skalk

I need to do some stuff, but I'm close. Definitely not going to win any awards, but it has been fun to do and try out a couple of things. Gotta finish up and take the obligatory shots.

Looking forward to seeing what everyone has come up with

Completely forgot I entered this contest... Better get cracking!

Have sent my entry photos using 'sky drive' whatever the f that is!

Could you confirm that you got them Skalk?
Cheers
Andy

Well, there it is.

Submitted.

Quick question Skalk.

Are we ok to use a single prefab bit if we feel it brings a piece together? I have one tiny GW bit that I want to add but I am not sure about it if adding the single piece affects scoring.

Not sure if i will be able to get this in on time... going back down to london on thursday for my exams and still have lota of prep to do (both for the exams and the junk pile! ).

Welp, it is Monday, guess I should start working on this contest entry. The snow is going to affect my plan a bit...

Hairspray and salt applied... rust effects here we come!

@ nerdfest09- sorry for the stress, you are all set.

@ graven- via your photo gallery or email to me?

@ GrimDork- Don't sell yourself short.

@ Commander Cain- Plenty of time left.

@ Rabid Ferret- A few GW bitz are not going to affect judging.

@ Andy_T , Theophony, and daemonhunter187- You are all set w/ your submission, thank you.

@ Silver- Whatever you have, submit it if you can. Some points are better than none.

@ BrianCJ- Whatever you can do.

@ hdbbstephen- Looking forward to seeing how your new rust turns out.


4 days 5 hrs left. Entries are starting to come in in, thank you to everyone that has submitted your entry so far. This has been a fun contest to run and I hope it has been for you to participate.

Reminders:

- Entries are due by 5pm (1700) EST. Entries submitted after that cannot be included for judging to maintain fairness. However If there is a distinct and egregious reason why you cannot / were unable to submit at that time PM me for consideration. A simple "I didn't have time" will not be accepted, nor will any consideration regardless of situation after the official entry photos are posted.

- Popular vote' for Daemon Prince (best overall entry) starts the day entry pics are posted here and will be accepted via PM only until Dec 28th and will be counted up until results are posted. Judging results for all categories will be posted sometime on Saturday Dec 28th.

***

A list of contestants that submitted for judging will be posted here Friday Dec 13th soon after 5pm (1700) EST. If I fail to include someone that submitted it is only due to oversight, please PM me and I'll make the correction.

Photos of completed entries will be posted sometime between Friday Dec 13th to Sunday Dec 15th depending on my schedule.

First Place and Daemon Prince winners will be contacted individually via PM for the est arrival date of your prize. 2nd place winner packages are prepped and ready for mailing sometime between Dec 30th to January 3rd.

Skalk, I emailed you all pics on Saturday. If they didn't come, I'll upload them here and pm you.

Rec'd your PM, I emailed them back to myself. You are all set.

RIGHT. 4 days off work, time to kick into gear. I am excited!

@Skalk: huzzah! and very very excited to see what folk have produced. The lack of wips has indeed proven a tease...

Skalk, did you receive my emailed entry a couple days back, forgot to post here.

@ Scarper- Plenty of time.

@ graven- I do not know if 'no WIP' had the effect I was hoping for. We'll see by Friday.

@ Theo- Yes, you are listed in my last update

I've taken Friday off for some IRL in the morning but I'll be around Dakka for most of the day.

3 days 7 hours left. Still plenty of time to finish a project for submission.

I should be able to finish by tomorrow...

Since I was at that point, I took the first rust tutorial I could find on the dakka tutorial pages and ran with it. Fairly happy with the results, as well as with my first determined effort at making my pigment purchase worthwhile. I've still got to take the pictures, which honestly is the hardest part for me Hoping to submit my entry tonight or tomorrow.

It's almost "pencils down" time, can't wait to see everyone's work when the contest is over

I'm done now,
I just PM'd my images to you skalk ... after having read that I should have e-mailed them ... gj brain

Thick and fast now it seems the entries are arriving Skalk! how many entrants from the original listings have finished? it seems to be a HUGE comp :-)

@ hdbbstephen- I'm looking forward to seeing your final product.

@ GrimDork- Take a lot of pictures from each angle and choose the best ones of the lot.

@ OneManNoodles- I received your entry via PM. No worries, you're not the only one.

@ nerdfest09- I do not have the list compiled yet as I'm going for a 'one shot' effort once the contest has closed. Though guessing I'd say around 10 completed entries. I expect that number to grow significantly before the contest closes, and I strongly suspect there is at least one '30 seconds to spare' surprise entry from someone that never announced their participation... or not.



60 hours left. Contest is still open to anyone even now. There is more than enough time to start and finish.

Hey Stalk I had a look but I couldn't see it, but do you want us to pm you a shot of the junk before painting?

Yeah I read that wrong and laughed at myself! I thought snrub asked you wanted him to pm you a shot of HIS junk before painting!

Ha!

Yeah good eye there Nerdy.

@ Snrub- Yes, you must provide one WIP picture that does not have paint. It is acceptable if a repurposed part on your model has paint from a previous project.

Pics away!! (completed image on my side project log)

@ hbb- all set.

Counting down to 48 hrs before contest ends. Still time to start and complete a project.

Prize update- I'm making an effort to have them finished when the contest results are posted. Previous delay notice was due to projected IRL scheduling.

Crap, I was thinking I had this weekend to work on it. Hopefully will still have a chance, but will be a bit rough.
