June '11 Banner Contest: 72 Virgins Edition

[pcsguy88]

To celebrate the death of Bin Laden, the theme for this month will be the SEAL raid on his compound. Have fun with guys, it doesn't have to be accurate, it can be Stormtroopers or Spartans exploding his skull if that's your thing.

Entries must be in by 11pm on Friday the 27th and voting will start Saturday morning.

Please do not post a picture in this thread if you do not want it considered for entry. If you change your mind, please delete it by the deadline.

Photos should be 920x322, all entries not meeting this criteria will be cropped by me to what I feel looks best.

Think of the logo and dog tags when you are taking your pics. It never looks right when figures or vehicles are covered by these items.

Low Light is again up for the winner and I may try to throw something else in the pot.

Gotta fix that. WOW!!!!

 

[Monkeywrench]

[Big Jim]

Just ordered some middle eastern figs for this

 

[Rick]

Thinking about this I have a general question of curiosity.

Do you think the team that went in was wearing dark green or desert camo?

I would say Black

 

[oddball]

i have info from a very relieable source that they were wearing black. the dog was a brown german shepard and they were chewing bazooka bubble gum.

 

[A.V.A.C.]

I am on this shite. Get ready for 72 nocturnal submissions. Paradise awaits infidel scum...alllllaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa zzzzzzzzzzsnore

 

[MAJOR BLOOD]

I'll be interested to see how many people us the bombed out building.

 

[pcsguy88]

Wasn't the bombed out building made specifically for this dio?

 

[Rick]

All depends if you're doing an outside shot, Thinking of doing interior shots. Will be tough though if done at night

 

[Big Jim]

Hmmm the bombed out building is sitting on my shelf and the thought of using never crossed my mind

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

funny...i was wishing i had one to use for a shot...

 

[pcsguy88]

This article should help you guys since it provides the best details of the operation I have read.

[Rick]

Do you think when they ushered his body out he was just hanging with 4 guys grabbing a limb and running him out or on a stretcher??

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

lol...be funny to see him being dragged by one arm head and body boucing off rocks along the way

[pcsguy88]

Sheesh, almost forgot about this because of the Raffle. Deadline is tomorrow, are we going to be able to have it this month?

 

[Mandingo Rex]

Rick and MW are the only ones I've seen stuff from, although I could have missed someone's stuff. I'm out of town for 2 weeks starting at 5am tonight, so I'm definitely out.

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

if it would stop raining here for one f*@#ing second, i have an idea that i think would be killer, but i for sure need a clear sky to get it...

 

[Rick]

Don't think I'll get to the double tap pics by deadline so here are a few. Doubt night shot will work, but I was trying to stay true to the real event. I did take one with the lights on, but didn't add any blood as I figured night shots wouldn't show it.

PCS you won't hurt my feelings if none of these work. I'll try to do the inside shots tonight but doubt it

 

[Big Jim]

I wont beat Rick for realism or MW for bloodiness so lets go for some comic relief

 

[Monkeywrench]

those are some great shots Rick and I also like yours BJ. I will add one of my OG13 "spiking the football" shots tomorrow before the cut off lol

 

[pcsguy88]

Is it possible to make #4 in nightvision?

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

those are beautiful Rick!

 

[Rick]

Thanks guys!

PCS not sure if you're refering to my 4th shot. I have no Idea how to do night vision. If somebody wants to shoW me that would be killa.

Eddie the one of him being dragged was for you

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

you need to heat the neck up and bend it down so his head can actually bounce off rocks

 

[Rick]

Details details. nice critique Eddie and idea. What would I use? A hair dryer??

What is Scarlett's hand doing? You should put a solid background behind there MW. You can get poster board at the dollar store for .50 cents each.

i'm not sure how soft the plastic is on those figures, but a blow dryer is usually what i use to shape accessories...

if it heats him up and bends, then run it under water right away and it should hold that position...and if you want it to go back, reheat and it should return to the original position all by itself...at least thats how it works with webgear and such

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

good idea BLOOD

she's freaky, what can I say. Yeah I know, oh well, Rick has this on lock anyway

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]
