Svelte Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 (edited) Thanks for the news Sinner! I'm so pleased that members liked my MOC and I've just noticed the shiny new fedora hat below my avatar . Thanks to everyone who voted for me and to Sinner for running such an inspiring contest! I think the combined MOC/ story idea added an extra edge to the comp and made you think carefully about what you wanted to build and how you would structure a compelling story around it. Batbrick and Oky Wan deserve a special mention for their fantastic visions but all of the entries were great with something unique and different from all of them. As for SlyOwl... it is good to see the Blockblock universe continue, although you may want to wipe your shoes after viewing his entry Thanks again! Indy forever! EDIT: I hate to question your mathematic skills, O Shiny Booted One, but I am pretty sure 2x14+8=36... What are they teaching walruses in school these days? Edited July 10, 2008 by svelte_corps Quote
Siegfried Posted July 10, 2008 Author Posted July 10, 2008 Thanks for the news Sinner!I'm so pleased that members liked my MOC and I've just noticed the shiny new fedora hat below my avatar . I always planned the tag but I wanted to make it a surprise. (As for the maths mistake... oops!) Quote
WhiteFang Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 svelte_corps, congrats for emerging as the overall winner in this tough contest. You have done an excellent job with such interesting, creative story plot. I like it very much, and your MOC had placed such great emphasis on playability as well, without neglecting the overall layout. By the way, I had noted a little cute Indiana Fedora hat, at that corner. It does look great on you. Well done! Quote
Oky Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Congratulations, svelte corps! I really think you deserved to win, although some of the other entries were pretty good as well! Just a few days ago, it seemed as if I would win, but then everyone started to vote for your MOC and story all of a sudden. Oh well. Thanks for this great contest Sinner! Quote
Svelte Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 (edited) Thanks Oky Wan; as I posted in your entry thread, I really liked your MOC too, especially all the colours and the use of those cool baseplates . As for the last minute votes? It must have been that evening I spent staring at my minifig sized Crystal Skull, wearing my Irina Spalko wig and chanting 'Vote for the Silver Swan!' (I'm only kidding; I wouldn't wear an Irina wig - it was a Dovchenko toupee ) Edited July 10, 2008 by svelte_corps Quote
Batbrick Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Congratulations svelte-corps, if i wanted anyone to win over me, it was you, an award well deserved. Thanks for all that voted for me too, I'm very happy to have come second as the Temple is one of my finest mocs, so thanks. Thanks to Sinner for running it too, it was a blast and like svelte-corps i think that the story part added a real edge Batbrick Away! Quote
Matn Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Congratulations and thanks for the nice contest! Quote
MagPiesRUs Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Oops, I never got around to voting... Congratulations, svelte_corps, a well deserved win. Great job to the rest of the entries, there sure were alot of good ones in this competition. Thanks to Sinner for the great competition too, if I weren't as busy as I was in June I definitely would've entered. Quote
