The theme for the September Banner Contest is Covert Operations Here is a quote from Banner Contest runner Major Blood: Ok, theme will be Covert operations with setting up explosives/blowing stuff up.

It’s that time of the Month again! Wait.. what? Oh.. right.. The theme for the July Banner Contest is Against all odds Here is a quote from Banner Contest runner Major Blood: Rules are: 1) Picture entered must be from a diorama 2) When making the entry thread, there must be a link to the diorama thread 3) Picture must be from a situation within the diorama where the odds are stacked against an individual or people.

It’s that time of the Month again! Wait.. what? Oh.. right.. The theme for the June Banner Contest is Kick in the Door Here is a quote from Banner Contest runner Major Blood: June will be to have a theme where the door of a place is getting breached.  It can be someone kicking it in,  shooting the locks,  ramming it open or even driving through the front.  Either way,  there needs to be some type of action going on where a building is getting stormed or attacked through an entrance.  Windows are fair game too.  If using a door,  it does not have to be opened.  As long as the action is apparent it’s fine.

It’s that time of the Month again! Wait.. what? Oh.. right.. The theme for the May Banner Contest is Silhouette Here is a quote from Banner Contest runner Major Blood: May’s banner theme will have a little more of an “artistic” approach to it. Any action, vehicles or figures can be used. Even animals. The subject has to be be in a silhouette though. Some color can show but it should be as much of a shadow as possible. This can be either daylight or night. This one will be a little tougher since lighting is key.   The Monthly Banner Contest has been one of the most successful and favorite features here on the Fighting 1:18th.  The contest has been going on for over a year now and started on our original site before the infamous crash of 2011.  For ...

It’s that time of the Month again! Wait.. what? Oh.. right..  The theme for the April Banner Contest is Hand to Hand Combat! Here is a quote from Banner Contest runner Major Blood: “April’s theme will be hand to hand combat. It can have the use of edged weapons and guns,  but guns can’t be used for firing.  Pistol whipping and hitting with the stock are acceptable.  Even blocking a weapon with the gun. This does not have to be limited to military themes.  Sci Fi themes have a chance to compete also.   That is,  if anyone can pose them with those T crotches. Oh yea, this one is all natural.  That should make it a little tougher. Good luck! “ The Monthly Banner Contest has been one of the most successful and favorite features here on the Fighting 1:18th.  ... Read More »

Well, SDCC has come and gone and it was quite the experience. From getting up obscenely early to wait in line to seeing exclusives and talking to vendors it was all a great time. This being my first time I was not really sure what to expect but luckily I had a seasoned veteran with me. Read More »
