I don\'t understand the voting on here

Historical miniatures don\'t seem to earn enough respect. (Which is a shame cos there\'s some really fine pieces shown).

Terrain also doesn\'t get as high a status as perhaps it should. Which is also a shame cos there\'s a lot of effort gone into pieces of accurate terrain.

I dunno. I agree with the point about terrain scoring low, but historical? I\'m of the opinion that historical scores higher than sci-fi and fantasy, by at least a point.

I voted it 8 (I\'d score it 7.5, but I always mark up, people who mark down are sadistic bastards :~( )

Very nice and is sitting about were it should be at a very nice 8.5.

Gave it a 9 btw, I also round up.

I see from the forums that there are some Anti-Sniping measures in place. That\'s good to know, and hopefully will sort out some of the malicious votes.

Anyway, I am now officially impressed with CMON and have been staggered and humbled by the amazing talent on display here. I have a lot to learn and its good to be surrounded by such a wealth of awesomeness - it gives me something to strive towards.

Time to talk about voting So, i`m also think what 8.6 is a good result. For terrain is good twice. I vote 9. May be this thing not paint like masterpiece, instead it builded realy cool. It`s very easy to charm me. If i see something what cant repeat or do better or same i say \"wow!\", also i say \"wow!\" if know a how difficult to built this thing or how mush time is spended. \"Wow!\" i say enough often When see a new entry which charm my from first look, i say \"wow!\" and vote 10 in first half of second. If not, i continue the research and often say \"wow!\" and vote 10 after 20 seconds. I`m a very expressive onlooker About criterions:

Here\'s a list of youre \'mistakes\':
It doesn\'t say \'GW\' , \'Rackham\', or \'Reaper\' in the title.
There are no bare-breasted females visible.
You do not use magic words like \'NMM\' (or, better yet, \'SENMM\'), \'Golden Demon\', \'Games Day\', \'\'Eavy Metal\' (shouldn\'t that be \'me\'al\'?), or any of the \'Warhammer\' trademarks, like \'Empire\', \'Skaven\', \'...of Tzeentch\', etc. etc.
Nobody is mounted on a giant monster, or standing on a base that is higher than the model itself.
You didn\'t photoshop the picture into a Warhol-esque collage of front/rear/side views with close-ups of gems, bare bottoms, cleavages, eyeballs that would be hard to paint that way on a lifesize model.
You\'re probably not one of the site in-crowd.

Absolutely agree IMHO, it`s like pop culture, have a mainstream and alternative. Outright, terrain is not mainstream here, therefore have no mush peoples which can stat the value of it. Therefore 8.6 is good twice.

Hey Alan, good to see you here! Having seen this piece in progress, I know how much hard work you put into it, and for me, it deserves nothing less than a 10. Keep it up!
