#MFXTOP August Winner and September theme

#MFXTOP AUGUST

Thanks again to Element Games as the overall winner AND best newcomer receive a voucher to spend in their store.

Let's see who had the finest quality Plastic Crack:

Best Newcomer

One of many gremlin entries we had this month,
it ended up being this sweet piece with fantastic basing
Burt and older plastic painted by our newest best newcomer (sweet sentence)
@athousandhats

Third Place

It's @Elessarion30
Eless is one of the great inspirations to me through #MFXTOP

She has entered most if not every single competition, watching her improve
 and learn new things every month makes running this worthwhile.

Tied for Second Place

@Sir_Reeves is actually commission painting a starter box for someone
thanks to #WAAC donations what a gent.
In the mean time he has been painting some fantastic gremlins,
and the finest bit of work yet is this big boss, the colour choice is just excellent.

Also tied for Second Place

@DudeWaaagh
You may remember the amazing Mario themed Dreamer crew,
this I can only assume Baron Samedi inspired Mortimer is
one of the best Mortimer's I've seen and the most original by a country mile.

First Place

This month's winner is
@BigBoyBucky
An early entry which has held it's interest since day one,
Grave's here has such a dramatic and awesome looking face,
the colour choice for the clothes is excellent and little touches,
such as the blood effects on the wood and my favourite bit the tattoo poking out.

Bucky's entry is another close to perfect winner again.

I say near perfect because, what's up with the clear base man?

Haha.

@BigBoyBucky is the Winner of #MFXTOP8 "Plastic Crack"

and August's

Tyrant of Painting.

#MFXTOP Month 9

The usual reminder, but don't forget each month the Winner and Best Newcomer gets a voucher for Elementgames.co.uk 

The Best Newcomer award is for whoever received the most votes and has not entered #MFXTOP before.

Now for August I am shrinking some of the "stretch goals":

• If we hit 20 (previously 25) entrants I will send out something to who comes in second place.

• If we beat 27 entrants (we got 27 in January) then I will send prizes out to second and third place.

• Lastly 30 (previously 35) entrants, is my top goal and I will not only be doing all the above, but I will have a winner from each faction in the game (that includes Gremlins) who scored the most votes meaning 7 total prizes being given away.

As previously mentioned, "entrants" refers to people entering, not the amount of miniatures.

September's Theme

Month number nine, with September's Curse my mind has been elsewhere and I had to think of a theme fast... fast... hmmm....

"Runners"

Another community created theme, the rules:
Paint a model with Wk6 or higher.

If you have any other questions, contact me on twitter where I'll be tweeting rubbish constantly.

Please leave a comment here or on any of the other blog posts I've made.
Also another reminder that I'm still looking for guest posts in the style of the "2 for 1" series, I hope together we can get all those first masters done and move on to "1 for 2"!
I have already had @dumb_luck89 and @joel__henry will you be the next?

All work will be credited to those who enter. I hope that the community can come together for my silly little series, but I obviously don't expect it, writing even a short article does take time from your day.

As always head over to Element Games and listen to that lovely @oldmanmyke and whoever else is staring on Malifools and Fools Daily and lastly...

...if you want to come to my neck of the woods for SEPTEMBER'S CURSE THIS SUNDAY, check out this link here and get on that reserve list.
We have about three spaces left.
We have all the prizes, trophies, vouchers and great games of Malifaux.
