Taddddddaaadddaaa Taddarrraaadddaaa!!

The time is over! 
Another MASSIVE VOODOO Contest is over and we got some entries from brave painters around the globe. Their quest was to get their hands on some regular simple sculpted 1:35 Plastic Knights and make them epic. Thanks to everyone who did head for that quest and sent us his entry. The jungle is very proud of you.

I will now show you all entries I did recieve til now. At this point sorry again for switching the deadline so shortly and add some days more. I did not wanted to offend anyone of you - it was just because I failed in managing a painting class and the Challenge over some months of planning.

You can find the Contest announcement, rules, prizes and more here!



Here you go with the ULTIMATE PLASTIC KNIGHT Challenge Entries, with a letter attached to sort them. I will also add some text of the painter if I recieved one:

Sir Godfrey of Cirencester

B
Sir Rodney
by Serafin
"Hi,

this is Sir Rodney with his loyal horse Maximus, ready for the next adventures that awaits him in the boys room, he lives in. The fantasy of the boy turns this little Plastic Knight to an brave an glamorous shiny hero.


I´ve named this diorama "Kinderaugen" (children eyes), cause in the fantasy of children a plastic knight becomes alive. So the Base tells about that. There is a Toy-Bear, which has fur in some parts, cause he starts getting alive in the boys imagination. Also there is earth and dirt, an tree and some gras on the yellow toy-bears Head. I wanted to archive the toys but also it should have an realistic look - not easy to explain in my poor english - sorry for that. Hope you get the idea behind the Scene.

  2. WHAHAHAHA, had a GOOOD Laught because of a Couple of the Entries (Sir Shitalot, HAHAHA, oh my...:D...) and I am Amazed by the Very Imaginative Tongue in the Cheek like Humour! Well Done, everyone, super duper cool Projects you have Produced, you can be very Proud of yourself!

    My Favourites are Kinderaugen, the Frightened Little Lion Fella and the Witch Dio... But all of them are special, because it´s not about who paints the Best Version of the Best Miniature available, but who makes something out of nothing... You have all Succeeded... Congratulations...!...:)...

  3. Also a vote from me for Kinderaugen.
    Defintly hits a sentimentel and very positive memory of the adventures of my knights in my childhood.
    Kudos for that.
    On second is "Death of a friend".
    Shows in a fantastic way, that even with some simple miniatures you can create a strong dramatic scenery

  9. I just love Serafin's Kinderaugen. There is so much to see in there and so many different materials are used in that diorama, crayons, lego-bricks, a jetplane, a teddybear and much more. It is really the quintessence of a little boys fantasy while playing..
    I also love "Death of a friend", because it has something tragic, apart from all the "heroic" tales.

    Well, Sir Shitalot is definatly "different" too ;)

    Anyway, all of them are unique in their own way. Congratulations for making something special to all of you. Well done!
