I'm thinking of running a short custom contest and having minimal prize support. i have x3 rieekans, x3 xizors, x3 garms...basically i have a bunch of extras. im thinking of posting a short (SHORT lol) list of V/R(and possibly U/C) figs that will be up as a prize for a winner of the contest im going to make...but if no one's interested than i wont even bother. lol Glare Blink

ANYWAYS, on the bright side (BigGrin ) who would be interested in submitting an entry in a contest that ill create; where you'll have to create certain custom "things" to win? voting would be done by the public of course. let me know what you guys think! (post if you'd support this contest)


Thanks! ThumpUp ThumbsUp BlooMilk

What kind of customs were you thinking? Actual painting, reposing, reshaping minis? Stats? Maps?

You can count me in! the more reason I have to find the time to finish my many customs (or make complete new ones) the better.

I agree with darthsithis. BTW, there are also two other comps going on right now, so I'm thinking that you might not get as much press as you would if you waited.

thanks for all the responses! Woot BlooMilk

Anyways, to answer adamb0nd's question, your "custom" can be anything you want. pics, stats, maps, scenarios, whatever "custom" you are interested in doing. Remeber; the final voting will be done by YOU so you all will decide what's "best". Flapper (BTW; mapmaper cant enter in the contest--not that he'd want to or anything but his maps would by far surpass everything Laugh )

Anyways, to answer HBSV's/darthsithis's: i totally know. :) This was just an idea to see what you guys are thinking about this whole idea. Since (so far) about 5 people like it, i might put together a draft of the rules and everything. Once the other contests get done, i'll post this one up.

Keep the feedback coming! ThumbsUp Cheers!BlooMilk

I'd be all for this. Ive never made a map. The idea interested me, but making it look GOOD seems like the biggest challenge. I'd be down for putting some of my customs up, or making some new ones. Stats are always a lot of fun, though arguably the easiest to make.

I would also be interested in the stat-making portion of this contest. Like others, I don't have a lot of time or talent for art or maps.

@darthbane: yea, im in your contest. BigGrin The reason why i created this thread is b/c ive opened a ton of IEs recently plus got a HUGE box of V/R/U/C minis from celticdan (thanks a lot bud!) for free so i thought i'd share the wealth. ThumpUp Don't worry; mine won't start for a while

This contest will be meant for y'all to be CREATIVE with the stuff you have...for example, ive never made a custom figure in my LIFE but since i have all these extra pieces (a LOT of them) and x2 Rexies 501st i'm probably going to make a jet-pack clone trooper soon. ThumbsUp

Fixed it for you - no sense restricting him entirely since you're planning a freeform contest.
