[Archive] Golden Hat #13 - Winners

Grimstonefire:

[align=center][/align]

A really close fought contest, this one really did come down to the last handful of votes to decide.  Between 1st and 2nd 1 vote, and between 3rd and 4th 1 vote (and 4 votes between 2nd and 3rd for anyone interested).  This makes it one of the closest fought competitions we’ve had yet.

Anyhow, as I’m sure you want the winners…

1st and Golden Hat winner - Blind Berzerker

2nd and Silver Hat winner - Obsidian

3rd and Bronze Hat winner - Grimstonefire


1st, 2nd, 3rd



The staff don’t normally publically list the placing of other entries, but I have to give a special mention to GRNDL, who I just beat to bronze by one vote.

Well done everyone.  Especially Blind Berserker as well, this is his first entry and I’m sure you’ll all agree has a promising future here.

Obsidian I think your entry was really imaginative, well converted and very well painted.

Medals will be awarded shortly and 22 slaves handed over to their new masters.

First off, congrats to all the winners - and a big thanks to all of you - for making such a ‘weak’ themed comp this awesome. Very well done, all of you

- but then also a big: ‘I’m so sorry’ goes to Obsidian. Second time beaten by a single vote :frowning: - GH, really is a tough business. Had the pleasure of following you - nearly colour by colour - so I new you had a very strong entry (again). You even went that far doing a big hat.

- and I did what I could to help you out, my friend (and that’s not the withdraw, I’m thinking of :P) - but my vote wasn’t enough. Always a 3th time, some say :smiley:

@GFS
Shouldn’t you give a mention to the ever so close 4th. Think, I can guess which one it is - but a honourable mention would be in place being this close (IMO)

Golder Goldeater:

Congratulations to everyone! Where can we see the votes by the way?

(To see how good have we done)

Obsidian:

Congrats all, better luck next time I guess. :hat off

I did... GRNDL was 4th. ;)

Golder Goldeater:

By the way, the painting contest category at the site’s main page

goes only as far as GH #9. Why is that?

Zanko:

Congratulation to the winners and all participants! :hat off

By the way my personal favourite was Blue in VT’S entry! :cheers

Perhaps my slaves will steal the design datas and make a copy! :smiley:

                     :hashut

clam:

Yes, Blue did an exceptional cool model (and for that reason he had 1/3 of my votes) - and I’m also about to steal his idea :smiley:

tjub:

Great work all and congrats to the winners! :slight_smile:

AAhhh shucks...ya'll made me blush...thanks!

:hat off to all the winners...much deserved...great painting and sculpting all around. I'm a little sad that none of the centaur models are represented in the top three...very inventive work by all!!

Cheers,

Blue

Congratulations to the winners! Very high standard on all the entries, though the top three sure were my favorites.

Also, thanks for the veteran medal :slight_smile:

Tarrakk Blackhand:

Congradulations to everyone! There was some really great stuff this time around.
