Howdy folks

Just like with the Warhammer, I am hosting a contest to encourage some community pride and goodwill. Take some time in the Mechlab, come up with the best, most pimptastic paint job you can, screenshot it, and post here.

Easypeasy, right?

Winner will have their choice of a Basic Archer or Basic Kodiak pack, courtesy of me.

ATM, I can't post too many details, as I am taking care of my mother at the Emergency Room (just posting this to pass time while she is sleeping), so it's not really my priority.

Anyhow a few basic ground rules:

- only ONE paint job entry per person. If you post multiple, please do so as Spoilers, with only your entry visible. Otherwise your entry will be disqualified.

- Contest ends 10pm PST on Friday, 26/02/2016.
Rewards will hopefully be sent within 24 hrs, but due to familial emergency, if I'm running behind, please bear with me.

- Vote by "liking" the post of whichever paint job you like. You can vote on as many entries as you like. Winner(s) will be determined by tallying votes at 10pm Friday, February 26th.

-More details to follow. If anyone would like to contribute prizes, or help me to upgrade the grand prize pack, please PM me.

Thank you all, and I look forward to your sexy gundams. Also, while gun nub stump arms won't disqualify you, I personally won't add my vote such monstrosities.

Edit: congrats to the Zohan!

Ohh, nice! Love me some sweet camos.

Good luck everyone! (Got no Rifleman, so no camos from me this time).

(And you can't even try em out in the in-game store. Such a bummer.)

You also didn't paint it.

[RestosIII]

Just to be sure: Does this require that we own the camo, or can we just use the camo specs in the mechlab and post our dream camo?

Edit: Also, good luck IRL man. Hope things get better soon.

Well, since I have no way to verify ownership.....

But one would hope, if you thought it sweet enough to post, you thought it sweet enough to buy.

No Riflemen for me but hope your mom gets well soon. I cannot wait to see what people come up with!

[Fiona Marshe]

Didn't find the time to enter the last contest. Been home sick all week, so no excuses for this one.


I present: the Hill-Humper I. Blended to match into the skyline and burn you to death with dakka love.

[Hit the Deck]

I suggest setting all of the options in "video" to very high just for taking screenshots.

NOTICE: CLICK FOR LARGER IMAGE

Edit: On account of having won "Best Polygonal" from SmoothCriminal, I am no longer eligible for Bishop's contest. Also that would be greedy.

Let's open up with my take on the classic....


Followed up by:
Swampland Camo

Spoiler

Windbourne Highlander dress

Spoiler

And finally the Blue & Black Gold (IMHO black probably gives the secondary channel the best "golden" look to it - you can use a tan/light brown for a more consistent look, though it doesn't create the same effect)
