And the Winners Are!

[Westmarcher]

Can't help thinking DHautpol might have won something if he hadn't put so many entries in each category.

Not just DHautpol. I wonder if those who put in multiple entries shot themselves in the foot to some degree by dividing their own votes. For example, rightly or wrongly, because there were so many good entries, I made the decision to spread my votes around the entrants and not vote twice for what seemed the same thing. As far as the winners in each category are concerned, the only winner multiple entries seemed to pay off for was Shutuphippie - all of the other winners only put in one entry in the category they won.

Anyway, congrats to all the winners and runners-up, thanks to Leon for organising and sponsoring the competition plus my commiserations to everyone else who entered and made it so hard to judge.

He did get 3 runner up prizes, wich is more than most of us

All of our winners and runners-up have now got their Forum badges!

I thought the same thing but i just felt motivated to paint and didn't think I would prep and base and paint a second entry when i posted the first one. But I did. I felt my second entry was better (and indeed awarded me a second place) but couldn't (didn't want to) retract my first entry.

Congratulations to all the winner and a big well done to everyone who took part.  Thanks Leon and team for putting on the event. I for one am looking forward to next year's event.

Gaz.

Many congratulations, to winners and participants all ! Thanks to Leon for organising the competition, and thanks to everyone who voted for my Germans troops.

[Leman]

TBH if you're going to have late war Germans that's how they should look. A well-deserved win.

I would also like to thank Leon in organising this for us. As a community we are so scattered it's terrific to be able to share pictures and ideas on here!

[DHautpol]

I would like to add my thanks to the organisers for arranging the competition and add my congratulations to all the winners, some of the work was amazing.  Rupert of Hentzau's LoA are beautiful, I just wish the units were bigger so as to increase the spectacle.  I also really liked paulr's AWI units, at the other end of the unit size spectrum, and the elephants in xccam's Carthaginians, the face is very expressive.

I would also like to thank Leon for loading my pictures into the relevant places

I would have posted my congratulations sooner but managed to lock myself out of the forum; fortunately, Leon has sorted that out for me now.

I am reluctantly compelled to the conclusion that key judges have been influenced by anonymous deposits in Swiss bank accounts, unclad ladies at parties, and cases of champagne.

Subject to which proviso, well done the winners. 

[Tarty]

Amazing entries this year was so hard to choose, many of them could have gone either way. Well done to the winners. 

[Womble67]

First off a massive thanks to Leon for organising the competition.

Secondly thank you for everybody who voted for me to be honest I'm a little bit overwhelmed by it all

Thirdy sorry for my late reply as I've been on holiday for 10 days

Take care

Andy

[paulr]

Welcome back from holiday, a well result 

[Womble67]

Thanks mate it was a really good holiday went to the Claymore wargames show, Edinburgh Tattoo which was absolutely brilliant

Take care

Andy

[paulr]

Welcome back from holiday, a well result 

That should, of course, have read "a well deserved result"

[Redstef]

Thanks Leon for organising this again and thank you to everyone who voted for my efforts. Some fantastic entries , especially in the vehicle section, that show what can be done with 10mm.

now the dilemma. Order more LoA and edge that project closer to completion or use as a start of a new project 

[Womble67]

That should, of course, have read "a well deserved result"

I'm constantly making mistakes so I shouldn't worry. I knew what you meant anyway

Take care

Andy
