From the hundreds of entries which made up this year's Challenge three submissions in particular rose above to captivate the attention and imagination of visitors.
In 3rd place we have Dave's poignantly cinematic final exit of 'Butch & Sundance' in glorious 54mm.
In 2nd Place is the irrepressible Messrs Awdry with his wonderfully creepy yet beautifully executed Whitechapel 1888. (Which also had the honour of being our Challengers' Choice this year - bravo Michael!)
...and in an apparent nod to this year's 'Winter Vortex' 1st Place has been awarded to Millsy's superb 'Ney with the French Rearguard, 1812'.
Congratulations Mr. Mills!! I'm delighted that another of our wonderfully crafted vignettes has taken top place on the podium.
Millsy, in recognition of your excellent work both myself and Byron are happy to offer you a gift certificate from SG2 Creation's fine range of laser-cut products.
Again, I wish to convey my great thanks to all the visitors of the Challenge who participated in voting for their favourites. Your considered selections add a wonderful sparkle to the event.
Later this week I will post Sarah's Choice and my own Judge's Choice. I hope you come out to view those selections!
That's a dream...
ReplyDeleteWell done to the finalists. It's also great to see what captured everyone's interest. I believe Professor Morrison was Edwin King's. Fantastic job Edwin!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sean and thanks for catching that slip on my part - updated!
DeleteEh? Trying to steal my glory? Time for the Professor's death ray...
DeleteWith the head cold I'm currently suffering through I'd gladly have my brain in a jar...
DeleteCongratulations to the winners! Well deserved-each one of them.
ReplyDeleteThat's two more honourable mentions for me. I think I hold the lead in that category and believe there should be a special prize for it. Like the Miss Congeniality Award in the Miss America Pageants :0)
Top work Ladies and Gentlemen, worthy winners indeed!!!
ReplyDeleteA fine choice, well done Millsy!
ReplyDeleteWell done again all.

ReplyDeleteThanks everyone for the kind words. Considering the company I find myself in and the amazing abilities that are regularly on show I'm more than a little flattered to be in top spot on this one. Well done to everyone who appears on the list, and congrats to Dave and Michael whose podium finishes are no more than they deserve.
ReplyDeleteWhoops! How remiss of me not to thank Byron for his most generous offer of a gift certificate. Thank you Byron, much appreciated!
