Blood Crusher competition - EN

[gimiak]

In last month with brothers from https://www.thebrushbrothers.eu we've decided to begin a small challange. Everyone of us should paint one of the new plastic Blood Crusher. We'll be grateful if you could vote in your opinion for the best mini.

The four are very beautiful, it's difficult to choose one of them. I voted 3 because the colors is, for me, harmonious.

[arctica]

i agree, this is such a tough choice. They're all really good however going towards my own comical bright style i prefer number 3 too. I like bright shiny colours !

eek double post :/ stupid computer

[Corvus]

After making a first cut I was left over with 3 or 4. I think technically these two are equal to each other. So I choose 4 simply because I l ike the muted colorscheme more than the bright colors of 3.

[Nameless]

I voted in the polish section for fourth, for the same reasons as Corvus. just one more reason from me - no. 3 has a pretty standard colour scheme which we have seen many times already. it's not a poor scheme, colours work well ofcourse. but, when you compare two good works, a bit of creativity and originality can easily tip the scale.

[Mordred]

I have voted for the 2nd, a vote for originality though not necessarily technical perfection. Judging purely on technique my vote would probably go to option 4.

I was thinkin 2 or 4 but finaly chose 2.

1: Jugger is great , but the blue is too overpowering IMO. The rider looks a bit like plastic. The base + plinth came out really well.
2: Very original take on this fig. Cool conversion, but the rider blends in a bit too much with the jugger. The base is mediocre. The beast looks very good though. I like the dirty look and the blood looks good too.
3: Looks awesome. Not really my style, but I can't really find any point of critique.
4: Same as 3, hard to find a point of critique. Love the NMM on this one.

In the end I voted for n°2. Originality wins it for me.
