Vignette Contest!
 Group admin 
I think to increase activity in "The Squires" we need a contest so here it is. Build the best Castle Vignette and win...bragging rights. ;D There will be 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places. And yes, I will be judging. Rule time:

1. Deadline is March 1, 12:00 Eastern Standard Time. All entries entered afterword won't be counted.

2. This is a VIGNETTE contest, I won't set an exact size limit, but keep it vignette size.

3. Make sure it's medieval/medieval fantasy themed.

4. You are limited to two entries.


Ok, you can start submitting entries as of Feb. 5. Have fun!

Ok.... What are you judging the entries for??? Build, topic, or both? Does it have to be action-packed, or can I make a more peaceful scene??

Oh boy!! I'm looking forward to competing in this. I've been making some castle vignettes but haven't had a chance to put them online. By the way, what is standard vignette size? I think it's 8x8 but I'm not sure.

Though I'm pretty sure the standard size is 8x8, I didn't specify a size. Just keep it vignette sized.

I check this blog daily. There are some good examples of vignettes. A Vignette can be 9x6, 8x8, 12x12 and MAYBE 16x16, but thats rare.
Here's the link to the vvignette blog:

I hope this helps.

I might just have to enter that...so many of my pieces are tied up with other projects, and such, though...

What other projects? We're all waiting! I don't mind if its an old creation, like your island tower-thingymabob. I'll judge it just as fairly.

No shameless plugs! *hits Lord Lego with newspaper*

I don't care if you go off-topic in General Conversasion (which is kind of impossible), but not anywhere else. I'll let it be this time.

Sorry, I've come down with something, and MOCpages wasn't working yesterday morning.

Though the results should be in the contest group.

I've seen it now. Ah well, third isn't bad. But tying with myself, now that hurts!

Vigs just aren't my thing, I guess.

Isn't getting two of your MOC's on the winners list better than one?
