The parts are together and the time is here to announce and initiate another contest!
This is the Win a Resin-Cast parts set Contest.
The prize is this set of customizing resin-cast parts that totals 15 pieces, most of which are taken from the sets that I sell on Ebay. Two pieces, however, are special in that they were both modified by combining parts of one resin-cast helmet with another. These two have never been offered before with the exception of one that I had made versions of for a couple of figures, two years ago.
Up for grabs is a set of 15 resin-cast parts that include the following:
1 AOTC clone pilot hollow helmet
1 Biker Scout hollow helmet from the assault on the shield generator battle pack.
1 AOTC clone trooper hollow helmet.
1 FU nubbed evo trooper helmet
1 Galactic Marine helmet
1 Galactic marine backpack
1 sandtrooper ammo pouch
1 clone wars Cody helmet
1Clone wars Cody human head
1 Galactic Marine human head
2 resin-cast neck nubs for mounting of the human heads
1 Clone Wars Rex pistol
1 Modded helmet: hollow ROTS Cody with the top from a hollow AOTC clone helmet.
1 Modded helmet: Hollow Gen veers helmet with face from Galactic Marine helmet.
And now, here are the rules...........................
Only registered members of the yards can enter this contest.
Contest begins as soon as I complete this post and runs till the 1st of June.
Shipyards MODs and Admin are not eligible to compete.
To submit your entry into the contest, Each shipyard member must post a picture with the words and letters spelling "IMPERIALSHIPYARDS.NET" , in some interesting fashion.
You could pose in your Darth Maul costume holding up a sign with the site name in an interesting place or, you could spell out the words using action figures. Heck, you can even carve the letters using a lawn mower and spell it out on your lawn.
Do not take any unnecessary risks while getting your pic, folks. Try not to get arrested while getting your pic. Most importantly, don't post any lewd or suggestive pics for an entry. "I don't want to see an imperialshipyards.net tramp stamp wrote above somebody's bare butt or anything like that"
As in the last contest only one post per contestant, please. You may edit an already existing post if you like.
Also, as in the last contest, after the last day, June 1st, Myself and the other Admin will judge your entries and decide who is the winner.
The winner will be informed here, and by way of PM and I will ship the winner his or her prize.
Sound like something to compete for?
Let's do it!!

alright, Simon, how many entries are you going to submit? It's not like you have alot of competiters, right now.
I think that you should go with the first one.
-
Is that your entry, Sten? I don't see the site name imperialshipyards.net in the picture.
-

It's in the ship name... the text area.. Unfortunately.. it would only take IMPERIALSHIPYARD as the .net made the name too long...
Because it didn't include the .NET, I decided to make a few other photochopps.
-
Yep, that's better. The logo is kinda small but, I like it.

best I can do without my usual photo editor... it's not working for some reason, good ol paint to the rescue.
-
very cool, devin.
I'm shocked segnett isn't in on this, then again, he's about the laziest person on the planet.
Take that seg!!!
:)
-
I like that one also, Stenhunter. You are going to have to choose your favorite and kill the other ones, though. Remember, only one entry per contestant, folks.
-
Ok, one entry, and my wife liked this one that I touched up some! I've deleted the others...
-
Thanks Sten. I like the additions to your entry.
-
Here's my entry. I'll be pretty busy, so I don't know if I'll be able to replace it with anything better.
-
Oh, that's GREAT!! Had me laughing OUT LOUD!
My entry is going to have to be revised, owing to a lack of straight bar sections this week. That's ok, I'm flexible!
-
LOL times thirty. Sweet betobuster. LOL again.
-
Yep, well done, Betobuster. I do like that one.
-
official entry
-
Sweet.
-
Oh Doc, I do like that one!
What does it say under the logo?
I can't quite make it out with this phone.
-
It says please have all paperwork ready. When is the last day for entry Clonehead?
-
That would be the first of June. Is that Monday?

Not a problem, buddy.
Thanks for the props! Have you got that test armor painted black, yet?
-
NO! I've had freakin chemistry homework for the last week, this is my last class though, then I'm done with school for a long while, lol.
I'll post pics when I do get it done. It fits like a charm, though.
-
It's the 3rd! Who won! lol :P
-
and can we get all entrants in a single post?
-
And here it is, folks. By 1 vote, Doc outlands is the winner of the resin parts set.
I offer congrats to the winner and would like to thank all of you who participated in this contest. I have plans for another contest in the near future so, be ready for it when it comes.
-
lets jsut hope i have internet full time by then !
-
woohoo!! ;D
-
woohoo!! ;D
congrats buddy! I will put this on the front page after dinner.
-
there was a vote?
-
and can we get all entrants in a single post?
Well you all broke that rule, didn't you ? What I meant by one post was one entry. If you are limited to one post per contestant, then it has to contain your one entry but if you had wanted to, I guess several entries could have been crammed into the one post. I will be more specific in a different way for the next contest rules.
yep, Simon, there was a vote by myself, and the four other admin members who could not compete. I am one of two MODs and there are 3 administrators, here.
-
Makes pay-offs easi- AHEM! Sorry, what? :-X
-
I think what narc meant is if a mod could compile all the entries into one post so that we could side by side compare them.
-
LOL, i was just making sure I didn't skip a step, I'm terrible at following directions, lol.
-
Do you guys do contests at the ST6 site?
-
I did the "Simon has a challenge for all of you" contest last year.
My wife funded it for my birthday, she basically seeded the contest with a case of joes and one 50 dollar gift card to WM). I had two first place prizes, it was cool.
The concept was pretty simple, I have a custom character in GIJOE(and any other verse) named Sanction, each guy just made a version of him. It was an incredible thing to see all these varied styles come and do the same character.
Sanction is traditionally a cobra operative( and Duke's kid) so I expected special forces, but they were beyond awesome.
There was an operative(with classified file card), two geared out, camo'ed bad ass soldiers, a hellgate guy, a sci fi one, a prisoner, and a realistic one from france(ok, that one was a secret santa, but inspired by the contest). Oh yeah, segnett did a death squad one. It really made my year.
Also, hawkeye does have the sealies(a year end customs contest), but he's in afghanistan dodging al queda and the taliban, so its paused, :)
-
What a cool contest that one of yours was. I believe that I have decided what the prize will be for the next contest but haven't decided what to have you guys do to compete for it, yet.
-
I used to run customs contests at other places, many were built on a theme, 1 or 2 month deadlines depending on the theme, prizes always varied, some were gift certs from various sponsors, some were gift cards,
Contest rules were usually simple, 1 entry per person, all entries submitted to staff and a web page was created to host the images, anonymously, site members would vote for 1 week, 1 vote per member and most votes win, I tried to keep it that way so it was based on the custom and not popularly of its creator. We can do similar things in the future here.
It's always fun to see what people can come up with,

Sounds pretty cool, Sarge!
