ETL VI POLL: ETL VI - Master Artificer

[Captain Semper]

For the first time in the ETL, we are introducing the title of "ETL Master Artificer", a title to be decided by the B&C community at large.

The list above contains the names of the ETL VI participants that obtained the title of the Artificer in alphabetical order, and is the group from which the Master Artificer will emerge!

Vote which one you prefer, and to help you decide, I have included in the next post, pictures with examples of the Artificers' work with pictures made and approved by them.

A few pointers"

• Any member of the B&C is welcome to vote - you don't have to have participated in the ETL to do so. This is open to all.
• Vote on the basis of the quality work done (personal criteria obviously) - not on the basis of the in-Universe faction you prefer
• You do not have to justify your vow. If you want to leave comments however, feel free to do so.
• You may vote more than one option! You don't have to choose only one - unless of course you like only one option over and above everyone else.

Vote which one(s) you prefer, and to help you decide, I have included below, pictures with examples of the Artificers' work with pictures taken and approved by them.

This topic will remain open until Sunday, August 12, where the rank of the Master Artificer will be awarded to one of the above Artificers!

1. Augustus b'Raass: A Typhus to die for!

2. Calyptra: Scourges ready for the party!

[Vykes]

Haha yea I loved those, reminded me of the sometimes nonsensical blurbs before a game show contestant intro! 

[Vykes]

Hah, no doubt, mate!  Man, Space Wolves Attack feels like it should be narrated in that 1950's booming radio voice with a theremin theme song! 

[PeteySödes]

I can picture the comic cover complete with MS wordart title lol

[Shas O R'alai]

Hahahahaha. Yellowfin

Kizzdougs+1

Tough vote. Really tough. Kept going through the list thinking "I'll probably vote for this one" for each item I passed.

 

I feel like I was the real winner though from having the chance to look at all these.

[The Shadow Guard]

Just amazing.... Golden Demon level painting and detailing... It's so hard to balance between high details and quality of painting in a smaller model and the effort needed to maintain high quality in some of the larger models.... 

 

Have to sleep on this.... annd go with gut feeling I think!

Oh crikey this is a difficult one. The amount of skill is just insane with some of these, and it's been difficult choosing. I had to throw it to the Tau battlesuit though, the grey and yellow is just popping with colour and contrast and the highlighting is just mmph. Wish I could vote for all of them though!

[Captain Semper]

Well, you can cast more than one vote... ;)

[Midnightmare]

Brilliant work all, well done to you all. Picking my fave is gong to be no mean feat!!

 

*concentrating intensifies*

[Captain Semper]

Right, tomorrow is the last day for voting! If you haven't voted yet and want to influence the result, you need keep that in mind! :)

[grailkeeper]

KrautScientists thread is one of the reasons I stopped lurking here and started posting but those other models are pretty sweet.

THE POLL IS NOW OFFICIALLY CLOSED

 

ETL VI MASTER ARTIFICER:

KIZZDOUGS

 
 
This was the first time that the Badge of the Master Artificer is awarded, and by mass participation  of the B&C community no less! A total of 214 members voted for this and it was not an easy victory, let me tell you that! As you can see from the results above it was closely fought between Kizzdougs and FearPeteySodes amazing Space Wolves. But a win, no matter how close, it's still a win. So congratulations Kizzdougs, you may now replace your Badge of the Artificer for the Badge of Master Artificer:
