[EagleWarrior]

Congratulations to OSJClatchford and void_dragon for well deserved wins, and well done everyone else for some excellent entries.

[osjclatchford]

Well thats surprising! Never thought I had a chance there, considering the quality of the other entrants. Indeed congratulations be to eaglewarrior and voiddagon. This was nice to see bfg getting so much deserved attention... Some truly inspiring entries this year!

[Void_dragon]

Aaah I never would have guessed! I feel really lucky. There were such a large number of excellent entries. Lord Borak's massive battleship in particular deserves a mention as both an excellent piece and an extremely close 2nd place. Well done everyone - the entries were great and the standard was very high. I always look forward to seeing them all revealed. Time to start thinking about next year!

[Lord Borak]

Congrats everyone.

Thanks Void Dragon. That station was awesome so it deserved to win. I'm very chuffed with a 2nd place, especially as it's my first ever foray in GC Just one vote out though *mutters* Next time Gadget

And the almighty judges have judged!

It was difficult with the many conversions this time, think OSJClatchford and EagleWarrior, we did find a winner:

Lord Borak his Invicta Fidem Dreadnought!

Congrats!

[Thinking Stone]

Such excellent work by everyone! I remember seeing the construction shots of your battleship (well, dreadnought ), @Lord Borak, I'm glad the hard work was recognised!

Next year maybe I'll check the voting dates before the voting is closed... but still, Gothicomp remains a shining standard for miniature spaceships everywhere!

[osjclatchford]

Very well deserved win to lord borak . That dreadnought looks like a missing piece of the gw design studio's work. Like an official release that never happened.espescially the way the weapons are still modular. Great stuff.  However I must comment on the absolute insane amount of detail to be found on any of eaglewarrior's vessels. They really are above and beyond. You all make me want to do better. In the end is that not the intended, nay desired, effect of a competition?

[Lord Borak]

Lord Borak his Invicta Fidem Dreadnought!

I seriously did not see that one coming.  Thank you Kindly!

[Void_dragon]

Couldn't agree more - well done Lord Borak!
It will be a great addition to the Hall of Fame.

Hi.

I'm a new member here - looks like a great community - I was referred here from Yaktribe (i'm a regular Necromunda player)

I have recently bitten the bullet and undercoated & assembled my BFG fleet that has been mouldering-away in storage for an absolute age - some of the stuff I've seen here has really really inspired me.

There is nothing like a competition to get the blood flowing and motivate me to get stuff done, so I have one question?

When is the next one of these annual competitions set to commence...? and do we have to set-up a WIP (work in progress) thread to validate the entries or something? - or can we just work-away and then submit the final image for the category we decide to enter before the deadline?

I'd love to know / have juts a tad more guidance on this as a n00b...

Cheers!

Submission entry usually are in July and August



Congrats to all the submitters btw

Hey,

next year will see a new competition.
There is no need for a WIP-thread, we never had a validating aspect to the entries. We believe in good sportmanship. I have a good eye on official models and what is kitbashed or copied but usually participants tell me if a ship submitted by them is not one of their own creating (eg they did paint them but not build them).
But if you would to create a wip-thread that is allowed as well.

So, see you back in a few months.
