I have never seen such collection of whiffery master pieces. Amazing indeed!
:bow: :bow: :bow: :bow: :bow:
Call me back in month, I MAY have reached a conclusion by then............
Wow! I needed more votes! Well done everyone. Thank you to the organizers and mods. :bow:

OMG, what a field of candidates - and it's REALLY tough to make a judgement. There's so much good stuff in there...! :-\
"This, Watson, is a four pipe problem" said Sherlock Holmes. Or in other words AAAGH!!! too much choice of excellence. I may have reached a decision by the end of the summer.
An impossible task. I had to create two new fake identities in order to register all my choices...
;D :wacko: :mellow: :lol: ;D

I'm going to remove one vote equally from all entries for every voter who admits to this.... ;)
:o
That's me told!
Well done, everybody! All deserve prizes. :thumbsup:

Wow. Toughest vote ever ! Great stuff guys :wub:
I wish I could vote for all of them! Very tough choices!
Far too many good builds ... So, I changed my criteria & voted for ideas worthy of further exploration.
No, I'm not saying what they were 'coz I may be wanting to further explore them later. :P
Okay, the voting is now closed, and the very worthy winner is (drum roll.....) :
sandiego89's Ice Station Delta
And very well deserved it is too: that was great concept, very well executed. :thumbsup:
Runner up was Dizzyfugu's Cheetah GR.2 Another worthy build.
Thanks very much to everyone who took part, everyone who voted, my fellow moderator crudebuteffective and to NARSES2 for help and guidance. This was great turnout with a superb standard and variety of entries. Well done to you all! :thumbsup:
Very worthy winner! Congratulations to Sandiego89, and to the moderators and everyone else who had a part in this GB, this was my first of many, i hope! :bow:
:cheers:
Congrats to all of you! :bow: :bow: :bow:
... and specially the winner. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Congratulations to Sandiego89, who really caught the Colf War's ideas and visions in this neat diorama scene. Well deserved!
And I am surprised that my Cheetah GR.2 made it onto the podium - thanks a lot!
Anyway, also many thanks to Weaver for setting this whole thing up - and everyone who took part in the GB. Lots of great ideas and designs, IMHO, and this time a very tough decision to place those (only) three votes. But having five or more would not have made things better... ;)
Congratulations to the winner, and to all the other "builders".. A very interesting and varied GB.
And I'd like to I add my thanks to Weaver and the mods for the organization.
congrats to the Winner :party: :thumbsup:
and a big well done to all who took part,
and a equally big thank you to the mods
Excellent, a super model, well executed and equally well thought out in the first place. :thumbsup: :bow:
Congratulations Dave.
:thumbsup:
Thank you all, I am glad that "Ice Station Delta" was well received! It may have caused a change in my eye glass prescription ;D
A big shout out to the organizers and moderators, and to all the builders- it was great to see so many contributors.
Thank you again, Dave.
Well done to the winner and the other builders. We gave ourselves a real headache in deciding what to vote for.
Gondor
Yup a deserved winner and nice to see a diorama top the poll :thumbsup: Congrats to Dizzy to and all the other entries. A great standard and a very enjoyable GB. Well done to all
Congrats guys ! For sure it's nice to see the small scale stuff swoop in for the victory !
:cheers:
