Not another one of those Feral Ork Stripper Cakes I hope?  :vD

Slaaneshi surprise cake .... the surprise is that you expect a daemonette and get a borrowed nurgling....

Tertius: Are those Old Crow buildings in the background of your battleforce pic? I so I think you just convinced me to finally get some :D

Yes, the large building is Old Crow.  The smaller one is from a line of sci-fi resin buildings by Mayhem, a.k.a. The Drum.  I think they are out of business. I picked up a bunch of Mayhem buildings 5-6 years ago from a local store trying to get rid of them at a convention for a good price.

Check out my blog for some photos of the Old Crow resin buildings. I have updated it with a pic of the painted accommodation block and Mayhem industrial buildings. I highly recommend Old Crow. They are first rate.

More pics of my Warlord Titan. This was the second Titan I ever built (the first one was a Reaver painted in 1997 or 1998 when Epic 40,000 was released and was not even painted with acrylics; it awaits its rebirth on the Chaos side, paint already stripped, ready for conversion).

The reason for building it was the Specialist Games Epic Titan Competition (which year was that?). I managed to convert and paint it within a month (pretty fast for me). Back then it had a different name though.

Now it leads battlegroup "Breath of Steel" of Lego Metalica and awaits the yet to be built Traitor Titan battlegroup.

Here you can see it with banners and Carapace Multilasers removed (they are attached with magnets).

Thanks for all the great submissions guys - this year voting will be hell! I think I can safely say the standard has gone up EVEN higher than last year - which at the time seemed impossible.  8v)
Voting should start by 7th December.
Thanks to all those taking part, and to the grand set of people giving prizes.
Good luck all :vD

Just one observation, only three entries for Exodus War and Seeds of War... I think we had something similiar last year where we had a category with only a few entries. Probably something to think about for next years :)

Thanks for the heads up, I've modified them to be included in the post. I even did it before the deadline.

Companies that are only just completing their first ranges, so a situation that is likely to change in the future I'd guess. GW's got twenty plus years on them after all  :;):

I was hoping to knock out a couple of entries for those categories, but bad timing with exams and thesis due in two weeks. :sad:

I think the other game systems should really be integrated with GW entries. I don't see any reason why a Exodus War group can't be entered along with the GW war group for instance. It is after all a painting competition. I guess when it comes down to details of single model or large model would be a slightly different matter as one game system's models may have more room to show off painting details, but I doubt anyone would have any objections.

Maybe someone could start a poll prior to next year vote to see if they mind having mixed games systems models in the same category.
