Title: First Twilight Painting Contest - Voting
Post by: Carcharoth on July 01, 2011, 04:09:27 pm
So, the deadline is closed and we have seven rather impressive entries that you can find here (http://www.worldoftwilight.com/forum/index.php?board=18.0).

There are a panel of three judges for choosing the winner. Each judge will choose their top three entries, who will receive 3, 2 or 1 points for 1st, 2nd and 3rd. The points from the three judges will be added up and the entry with the most points will win. If there is a draw then it'll go down to the public vote. If that doesn't work then Ben and I will figure something out!

The first judge is you lot who will be judging based on your own whims. You can each vote for one or two entries, but you won't be able to see the results until the poll is over. You've got one week to make your mind up!
The second judge is Ben, who will be focussing on painting and composition etc.
The third judge is me (I couldn't not have a say!) who will be judging on general twilight-ness and suchlike.

The first prize is £30 of Twilight goodies, but I expect there might be a couple of other random prizes if I'm feeling generous next weekend  :)

Let the voting commence!

There are more photos on the individual theeads, but here’s a snap shot of all the entries:

Voting closes the day after my birthday. Looks like there's lots going on in early July then!

I assume anyone whose entered can vote, though not for themselves (It's just not cricket!).

Do feel free to vote for yourselves - I don't see anything wrong with that. Besides, there is no way to know who voted for whom, or to enforce the 'not voting for yourself' thing. ;)

Well, I won't vote for myself if you won't  ;) I didn't enter!

To be honest I have no idea who I think should win...

Even if the numbers are low, they're great entries all round. A really nice mix of great painting and characterful and well laid out Dios. Certainly plenty of inspiration for my future painting there - Every one's a winner!  ;D

Ben and I have made our decisions (very very difficult!), so now it is just up to you guys!

It's just the mods who can see the results - I wanted to keep you all in suspense for a little bit longer!

Yup, it's very interesting to see the results developing now that I've made my decisions :)

With less than a day to go, things are still very close. After what looked to be a fairly clear front 3, 3rd place has suddenly come under threat...

Well done Halfmileduck! Ambush has stormed ahead on the public vote. I'll announce mine and ben's votes tomorrow and we'll see what impact they have on the final results  ;D

The third place was under threat, but which was threatened, and which was threatening?  ;D

I can guess...


And congratulations to Halfmileduck, and all the other entries. I've said it before, but there were some stellar entries. My choices both ended up in the top three...We'll see how the official votes land...
