Morning Mark (well, it's morning over here!)

Your photo has been deleted so feel free to re-do it and upload another.

We keep the ability to delete photos to be only under Talus and my control to make sure that entries aren't deleted in error.

@Cain, thanks, I'd like to play against you and your PHR too! Your Hades was a beautiful piece of work.

All right everybody, time to get posting!

We had 11 people enter this contest a month or so ago. With roughly 7 1/2 hours left until the contest closes, only 5 entrants have posted finished photos.

Where are the other 6?!?!

Lets go, time's a-wastin. Get the camera out, get that picture taken, get that entry in!

Voting starts tonight after midnight.

Good luck and get moving!

Looking good Mark :)

You would more likely be playing my UCM Mr Wiz. I've almost got them completely finished off (pics in a few days.) My PHR currently consist of the Hades and a pair of Ares'. I should imagine I'll be adding to them now the PHR have their own plastic starter. Might be a lil while off though, as I'm planning on resistance next.

I could take on the UCM! The shame it the commute between our gaming venues!

I'm thinking of a plastic starter or 2 myself, especially after the quality I saw in the 2 person starter set.

Now I want to suggest to Hawk that they give an option to purchase just the game board tiles from the Cityscape set. I don't need another 20 buildings, but I could use a larger game board!

So are you thinking of the Resistance Command Tank for next month's contest? ;)

Uploaded what I've finished. There's some more that I could push myself to finish before the deadline, but I'd rather have the light for photo purposes and spend a bit more time on them.

I hadn't considered that, but that is a good idea! Of course it depends on how quickly I can get one in at my local store.
