Post by: Elk101 on 11 March 2017, 09:08:29 PM: Isn't it funny how 6 out of 7 are sci-fi entries, unless of course Hammers' flamingos are robots or a race of pink flamingo like aliens.

Good luck guys and thank you Hammers for sorting all this out.

But doesn't the vote get multiplied by the number of flamingos?

Yes, but then it gets divided by its pink ratio.

Oh dear, I hadn't thought of that. That's not good for me, as I have some pink surfaces on the ornithopter. :? ;D

Post by: Elk101 on 13 March 2017, 02:51:43 PM: The battle for runner up is on! lol

Even though it's (mostly) sci-fi I love the diversity of the entries. It's a pleasure being in this with you all.

Post by: Operon on 16 March 2017, 10:10:59 PM: Hammers,

I love those Flamingos! Were they commercial models or did you sculpt them yourself? Did you post a write up on your entry (if so I missed it).

Cheers

Post by: Dan on 16 March 2017, 11:44:49 PM: Really great work there. I feel inspired to scratch build a flyer of some sort.

That was his runner up idea! :o You should have seen the original idea......

And the Flamingo thread is here....

http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=98141.0 (http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=98141.0)

All of us has Build threads on the 'Build Something Contest' board Operon. If you didn't vote in the last round, there's a LOT of amazing entries you missed, I would check out the threads when you get 5 minutes.

Post by: Bergil on 17 March 2017, 07:57:18 AM: All very good entries however the floatel was the icing on the cake for me.

Post by: Steam Flunky on 18 March 2017, 02:36:05 PM: 7 great entries but i would be lying if i said this was a difficult decision for me. Well done all.

Post by: dampfpanzerwagon on 18 March 2017, 10:19:38 PM: Well done - I think the Floatel was a very worthy winner.

Congratulations to everyone who took part.

I didn't! o_o I never thought a floating hotel would have been voted for as much as it did!:o But thank you very much for everyone that voted for me and congratulations to Hammers and Dr Mathias as runners up! I don't think the voting reflects just how good all the other entries actually are! :o

Thanks to Hammers and Jimbibbly for running this! It's been fun and it's got me to build something, I probably wouldn't have finished/made otherwise!
