WINNING CRITERIA
USE OF THEME
The theme is 'I AM BECOME TANK'It's a deliberately non-specific but evocative theme. Narrow enough to give some inspiration, but broad enough to let you go wild. Entries will be judged on how effectively they use the theme in their build.
STORYTELLING
Every great build tells a great storyRule of cool will only get you so far. Your build should have a clear identity and story that's told through your creative choices. Costume, posing, expression, proportions etc should all re-enforce your vision for what your build really is.
ORIGINALITY
Kitbashing is making something new from something that already existsIt's easy to create an awesome build by mashing two awesome kits together. Winning builds are those which use materials in innovative and unexpected ways to make something truly original.
PRESENTATION
Execution is everythingIt's not enough to have an awesome idea - you need to realize the best version of that idea, and then present it to folks so that they can fully appreciate it's awesomeness. Make sure your craftsmanship is good so it doesn't distract from your vision, and make sure your images are good enough to do your build justice.

FAQ
Do I have to paint my build?
This is a build competition, so you don't have to paint your build. Presentation counts though, and a grey primed model will look better than a mess of plastic and greenstuff.
You are welcome to paint up your builds and it'll only help it's presentation - but this is a build competition first and foremost.Do I have to enter a character, can I do a vehicle/mech/monster?
Your entry doesn't have to be a character. As long as it's in miniature, orcy and fits the theme, it's good.Can I enter multiple times?
Sure, - but if you have multiple builds, be very clear on whether they're multiple entries or part of the same entry.Does my entry need to be made from MrModulork bits?
Absolutely not, entries can use any commercial bits, kits, minis, or can be fully or partially scratch built.Can I enter an existing build?
Nope, you have to join in the fun and start something new.Can I enter an digital kitbash?
Yes, you can work in 3D - but the end product needs to be a physical mini.
