Ooohhh. This is so hard. I dig the way Kelly did the kugelblitz, and I think Terris Morane is great. Even more so because of the trouble it was making.
But my vote will land on Wendys yellow knight. I know that guy actually. He's a armor maintenance instructor on a Swedish tank regiment. Frown and all! (But maybe not quite so yellow...)
Thanks to all of you for letting us male brutes hang around along the way.

This IS hard !! Three different types of models, Armor, Figure and Aircraft, and all done extremely well.
Okay, while I wish I could do a camo pattern as well as Kelly, and a figure half as good as Wendy, I'm going to have to go with Terri on this one. I know that kit, and Terri did a super job on it. But honestly, all three are pure winners in my book. .
Cheers,
Mike

Nice Job Ladies!
I must go with the figure. The highlighting detail looks great and the wooden base fits in nice with the figure.

Nice work ladies. It is hard choosing between three different types of works, but since you are asking for votes, I will choose one.
It is ncie to see you all do such good work in your choosen areas. With that said I will have to pick Terri's. Now all we need is to get a lady over building ships and we would almost be totally set.
Thanks!!

Well, the best tank is Kelly's, the best plane is Terri's and the best figure is Wendy's! I don't suppose you would accept a three-way tie for first would you? I can't see anything that needs improving on any of them. Well Done!!!!!!!

Ladies, well done all of you, all the subjects look great!
To pick a winner, quite difficult indeed, and I too am laying my vote to you, Terri...Kelly and Wendy, a hearty Bravo Zulu to both of your builds as well!

I vote for a three way tie. Each is very ,very good in it's own right. I've done a couple of Eduard "weekend" editions for a change of pace and my rigging leaves a lot to be desired. My figure faces are a hit or miss affair. And the Kugelblitz is not an easy build either. That's it - Three way tie !!!! Keep up the good work ladies and try to bring more women into the hobby. An old quote from some one I dated a few times, "you still play with army men?" The more ladies in the hobby the more understanding we guys can get.

My vote goes to Wendy's figure.
That is a fantastic display of figure painting, especially the face, it looks brilliant.
Well done all,

Wow, tough one. Been back a couple of times to look & re-look and this time I'll place my vote.
All three are great....bravo to you ladies...Bravo!
So...my vote is for Wendy's figure: I love the chainmail, the "smock," and the face. The base is really great too.

Very good models indeed, and I hope that Kelly will submit her Kugelblitz for an On Display feature on Armorama, just as I'm sure that Historicus Forma and Aeroscale would like to see the same for the Knight and the Morane. (Hint hint... )
I really like that Kugelblitz (is it the 1/35 Dragon kit, or a 1/72 conversion of the Revell kit?) and it's weathering. The Morane is equally nice, and a very good job on that rigging.
But the Knight just edges over the finish line in front, good painting and shading, and very nicely presented on that base, with just enough groundwork to set it of.
Congratulations to all three of you, well done.

An awsome job by all three. Very tough to choose, but I would have to go with the knight.

Well now,
This is very interesting. What we have here are three really well built models.
For me at least I cannot choose, they are equally well built in their respective forums.
The one that stands out for me is the kugelblitz for the only reason that I also build armour
Kelly, if you can send me 15-20 pics I will upload and On Display Feature in Armorama
e-mail [email protected]
cheers from the sandbox

Ok
Here's my vote. I think it's ging to have to be Wendy's Knight because the shading etc is just that bit better than the weathering on the other 2.
They are all Great Builds.
Well done Girls

Well, that’s one tough choice since all three are pretty well done. Besides, how do you compare a knight with plane or panzer? So, these are my votes:
1st place in AFVs = Kelly
1st place in airplanes = Terri
1st place in figures = Wendy
-A-

Dunno if I am qualified to vote but they ALL are awesome builds. I'm a armor freak, but the Knight is my winner if I had to choose! Great work all around!

Kelly great build you have there and I really like the weathering.
Wendy fantastic work on the face painting of this figure.
Terri I have to go with your wingy thingy as getting those cables right would "do my head in"
Ladies I am sorry for letting you down regarding Danielle, but with the PC getting cooked and Danielle flying, shooting, and hill walking, plus what ever else she gets up to with Air Cadets, finishing this quickly became an unrealistic goal. That said when we do get it finished I promise to post it up and contact you.
