A Winner Is You!


...you might remember my Karchev the Terrible warcaster model, which I built & painted using some cinematic effects from Armorcast:


...well, I'm happy to report that the model won first place in the "Vehicle or Monster" category in Armorcast's first annual cinematic effects contest!  Much thanks to sponsors Armorcast & Battlefoam for putting on this contest!

  6. Thanks everyone! It's funny, Steve at Armorcast commented that what pushed the "Best of Show" winner (Todd Farnholtz's beautiful ‘FireAnt FLEA’ model) was the OSL effects - I had originally planned to do OSL on Karchev, but I was rushing to get done by the deadline - later they extended the deadline by a month, but I had such a bear of a time working on the model that I couldn't bring myself to go back and re-work it again.

    Mik: I actually left the choice of what category to enter the model in up to Steve at Armorcast - I was pleased it was the "Monster / Vehicle" category, since the winner of that category got two prizes instead of one. :-)
