Aloa and a wonderful good morning...

As told the judging work was done during the last week and in the end we found out all of you are winners for just taking up the sword of a Plastic Knight and bring some colours on. We are really thankful and proud of everyone of you who entered the contest! You are all winners and I still need some of your adresses to sent you a little jungle gift for your participitation.

Now to the placements. We have 3 places. 1st, 2nd, 3rd. Raffa and I did the judging work by heart and here are our results.

Apppppllllaaauuuussee to the 

1st of the PLASTIC KNIGHT CHALLENGE:

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.

Raffa and Roman:
"This is so creative, filled with childhood dreams and really from the depth of the heart. It is like looking through the eyes we all had when we were small humans, playing with all these stuff, enjoying the unlimited fantasy of a childs mind. We are both speechless!"

2nd of the PLASTIC KNIGHT CHALLENGE:

"Burn the Witch"

by Malekith

 

Raffa and Roman:
"A very athmospheric scenery with some damn cool plastic knight conversions and nice painting all around. We like the story told. For judging we did use the witch for the overall athmosperic view, but not for the painting itself as she is from another brand."

Raffa and Roman:
"Such a tragic story - it really hits the heart and even the painting lacks a bit behind the athmosphere the story is so intense and really amazingly done just from a plastic knight. Please sent your postal adress to jarhead---at---massivevoodoo---dot---com.

Sir Strangelot

by Katan

Raffa and Roman:
"A pretty mad conversion of a plastic knight - totally influanced by the gods of Chaos with a wonderful paintjob on a cool base. Well done! Please sent your postal adress to jarhead---at---massivevoodoo---dot---com."

 Many thanks again to all of you who entered the contest.
The contest will be added to the contest area in the upper navigation bar. Don't be angry of the jungle if you did not place - as told in the beginning you are all heros just for taking part in sharing and enjoying the fun of the PLASTIC KNIGHTS.

Now it is time for some applause in the comments!

Keep on happy painting!

Best Wishes

Raffa and Roman
