How about a 'Custom Of The Month' competion?

Post by paulitoy »

-

I think most of us on here love our customs.

With nothing new - Inidana Dave aside - since the eighties, customs are the obvious direction.



How about from July 1st, we post a thread with new customs for that month and vote through a poll for the winner.

There doesn't need to be a prize.

The glory of knowing that we all like your custom is surely praise enough.

Whatcha fink?




We could also trawl through the archives and maybe come up with 10 already made customs and vote on them for the best custom yet as a pre-cursor to the 'regular' monthly 'slot' starting next month....

The Baron knows the archive better than anyone, seeing as he created it.

Maybe he could list 10 'classics' for a poll to get the ball rolling....



I know. I'm full of great ideas....

Sounds cool, maybe we could have different categories? Vehicles / Figures or Original Sculpt / ARAH and 25th moulds?

I think the baron is probably working on an update sometime ironblood, there are a fair few of other peoples waiting to be added too....

customs should probably be recent, not ones already added, or @least updates, it's refreshing to see new stuff.
ok, to be fair, maybe stuff already seen but not added to archive? i just think this should be anonymous.

A fair point.

Until that is sorted then, we could have an individual member's personal top ten's each week and we vote on what we think their best 'work' is.

Next week Andy, you could pick out what you think your 10 best customs are.

Set up a poll with pics of them and we'd vote on which we think is the jewel in your crown.



The week after it could be Scoobydie, or TKW, or me, or Jimbo, The Baron, etc.

We narrow our own work down to the top ten and go from there.

It doesn't matter if the archive is out of date then.



Once we've all taken a turn, the Baron can set it up as a monthly comp for all of us to submit one each time....
