Welcome to the final stage of "The Great Baalite Bake Off" - the Blood Angels sub-forum’s premier modelling event!

After two months of hard toil the artificers of the Blood Angels and their allies have put the final touches on their creations and downed tools as the GBBO has come to a close. For them, anyway. A whole smorgasbord of creations have been modelled, kitbashed and sculpted and this has been put to the judges of THE FORGE to decide which ones standout above the rest. However, it doesn't end here. Below are the finest of the finest creations and there can be only one winner. Vote for your favourite so we can find the Champion of The Great Baalite Bake Off 2019!

Basic information:
  • Poll open until the end of the 6th May 2019
  • Eight contestants (images below), please view before voting
  • One vote: permanent, public - Note that viewing the poll results before voting will register a null vote!

Have to say, the GBBO has been a great success. We've had a plethora of entries (both in and out of competition) and they really show off the modelling spirit of not only the Blood Angels sub-forum but the B&C as a whole and for those interested, the full list of completions (with links to each individual entry) can be found here.

From the in competition entries The Forge Moderators have kindly pulled up a shortlist of their favourite submissions. It is from this list that we need you, the reader of this thread to vote for your absolute favourite model on display and to help us determine the winner! The poll is open for three weeks until the 6th May so don't delay, vote today!

sml_gallery_62972_10568_1098.jpg What Are the Awards?


The GBBO has four awards on offer. The first two, the participant banner and the completion banner, have already been revealed and claimed by our Finalists. The third, rarer badge is the Finalists badge, and this one can be displayed by the participants below in either their signatures or the avatars should they wish:

The outright winner will have their very own badge, to be revealed at the end of the event. All the best to our participants!

Right folks, the thread is live! Please vote for your favourite entry - remember, this is one vote that is permanent and public, and anyone can vote regardless of Faction. We're celebrating modelling here after all! Please be aware that if you view the votes first your vote will be nullified and there's nothing I can do about it!

It was hard for me to pick between my two favorite models I did this GBBO! Ultimately I chose the Tycho-Counts As. But There are a lot of really great ones out there!

 

Indeed, it's a hard choice for everyone this year! Having two is a testament to how well you've improved since this first incarnation in 2017, so keep up the amazing work!

 

Congratz and best of luck to all the other finalists :biggrin.:

 

Seconded, all the best to everyone!

 

Great models all! 

 

Aye, we've definitely had a good crop this year!

Lots of excellent work this year, I don't want to sound like a trashy TV talent show judge but it was a choice that required much deliberation! In the end the rendition of one of my favourite 40k characters is what pipped it for me. Well done all, and to Jole for organising as always :thumbsup: It's the great kind of competition where everyone who enters gets a prize at the end - a spiffy model :laugh.::wink:

Great work all!

 

This. The standard has definitely improves this year!

 

Nice job brothers! Characters to (almost) rival the 6th! :wink:

 

Sounds like a challenge. Perhaps we'll see a Space Wolves version in the near future?

 

That was a tough decision! *

 

*No, I did NOT vote for myself! :tongue.:

 

It is totally fine for people to vote for their own model if they want :happy.: Nothing wrong with a spot of bias.

 

It was close for me, coming down to the librarian and Tycho. All of them are excellent, though!

 

Aye, they are all brilliant entries. Maybe next time you can take part yourself; rumour has it your BA need reinforcements! ;)

 

Top work all around. One just edges the other (sterling) efforts out for me though!

 

Indeed. Cool artwork too, eh?

 

Thank you for the votes

 

Congrats on the top eight as well, that's no mean feat!

Not bad, but you need to work on the delivery to really make it as a trashy judge. Perhaps a jingle or something to get the crowd really going?

 

Great work everyone.

 

Thanks for voting and more importantly, taking the time out to leave a comment. Whilst the latter bit isn't necessary, it's lovely to see these entries appreciated :)
