I appreciate the kind words. I felt so outclassed and it me hard. I will try and let it inspire me, but I also need to keep my expectations realistic. Thanks again

Masq

If you read his 1 week reminder post he did state this: "Less than one week remaining before voting begins on the BambuLab Helmet Contest! You can always submit late but late submissions almost never catch up in votes so if you want your chance to win make sure to get your submissions to contest@galacticarmory.net"

Mikael Wihlborg

So, I'm confused. When voting opened there were about 285 entries, now there are almost 300. I didn't submit mine because I thought once the submitting deadline passed, we were not able to. I was only a few hours over the 9am EST deadline, since it was 6am in Arizona. So were we able to still submit after?

John Perkins

Even if I had been able to complete my helmet, I don't think I could hold a candle to the kind of talent here. Amazing work everyone

J Mack

The talent here is truly amazing. Some of the work is better than Hollywood quality. Very impressive

Recon Skimmer

Been lucky enough to join most of these contests. This one though, the competition is unreal. Great job everyone.

Nick Banks

What was your helmet masq? I got mine in late last night (my fault paired with holidays) Once my submission shows up I want to see what you did. EVERYONE has done an amazing job

Kevsteelio

You'd probably be surprised that some of the people you think that about, feel the same about others. Everyone starts somewhere, and we are all impressed by different things! Don't let comparison discourage you, only let it inspire you!

Michael Bradley

Good luck everyone some amazing helmets there votes are all in.

Richard Lee

Wow! Good job everyone I just finished voting, I am insanely impressed you are all incredibly talented. I feel like I missed something in the rules about who could because I was clearly not qualified. You guys are on a whole other level. I feel embarrassed, It almost seems insulting that I thought I could compete. So I just want you guys to all know I meant no insult, I do not think my stuff could compare to yours. I honestly just didn't know how talented guys were, so I am sorry.

Masq

My goal was to get at least one vote, but with over 300 entries that seems like I may have been too optimistic.

Masq

I figured there would be a number of complications doing that complexity and time consumption but I appreciate the response :) thank you

Kane

Get filtered after the fact I should say

Aaron Hughes

Afraid not as some votes get filtered due to not following the rules or not being members

Aaron Hughes

Just before the Dec 3 deadline

Aaron Hughes

If we just got it submitted when would we expect to see it added? Thanks

Kevsteelio

Just got my submission in. This was my first ever build attempt and Im glad I got two done!!! Learned so much and appreciate all the help! Wishing you all the best!

Kevsteelio

Also curious about this

Michael Bradley

Glad I was able to enter! My first contest & learned to print transparent resin for the lenses! Voted for at least a dozen entries, so many amazing custom helmets.

Thewolfgang514

Anychance we can get a vote count individually after the fact ? I'd ask if there was any chance for a live tally but that might be pushing it

Kane

Hey friends! I'm curious about how the social media submissions work? Were those supposed to be emailed before the 9am deadline today or before the Dec 3rd deadline?

Ickypahay

lol same 🙄 oh well after seeing everyone’s amazing entry’s I know I won’t be loosing by one vote haha

Ty Richner

Vote for as many as you like!

Aaron Hughes

So many great builds. The rule says you must vote for at least three, but can we vote for more than three? Like I don't want to vote for ten and it invalidate the votes.

Brett Zajac

Everyone looks so good. The space dad would be proud!

Drabe Sage

Oh man all of them are so sick! Congrats on the great work everyone

Juan Estevez

so many brilliant entries, my take away is that i may need to work on my phtotgraphy as well as my finishing techniques

Paul Roche

You all KILLED IT! Fantastic job to everyone who submitted!

John Challender

Whoever did the Stranger in a Strange land Eddie I love you! I almost did an Eddie Helmet

Nathan Tomaselli

WOW! Just wow... Great work everyone. Good luck!

Stashravens (Scott)

It's random order for everyone so you will be in a different position for each person

Aaron Hughes

Yea but at least the form forces you to go all the way to the bottom to submit. But the top helmets will def get a better chance. I’m the lower 3/4 my self but this was more for fun than anything 😅

CK_32

Wow great talent. I will now finish mine as I only had 4 days to work on it.

Space Wolf

Ah. thank you so much!

Phil Frb

Man. Is post Helmet submission depression a thing? 😂 these other peoples are so good 😭 hopefully my Mandalorian/WarHammer is good enough. Option 245 or something

Colton Ream

Me and the hubby have just gone through the whole lot and picked our faves eeeekkkkkkkk

Carol Wheatley

Wow, all of these entries are just awesome - good luck everyone!

Robert Noon

You fill in your patreon email at the top of the form. Doesn’t have to be linked to your google account

Mikael Wihlborg

There are some truly talented people in this community, well done to every last one of you!

Br0wnEagle

Oh my gosh there are so many incredible ones

Brent Simmons

Hi. So if my google account doesn’t match my patreon email i have to create a google account with the other email? 🤔

Phil Frb

Thank you for participating!

Aaron Hughes

I hope everyone takes the time to scroll ALL THE WAY through... there's some amazing stuff throughout the entries, and if you just say "I did my 3" quickly, a lot of deserving candidates towards the bottom of the list will miss out on votes.

Jason Key

just voted! so many talented people! was difficult to choose

Aaron J

Good luck one and all!!!!

Carol Wheatley

Amazing job everyone! Looking forward to see who wins 💚

SpiceBoy

So impressed with all the entries! Having double the amount of entries than any other contest just goes to show how amazing this group and the files released are!

Alec Scully

I just sent my submission and added photos, but looking at this, I may be too late. But I am proud of the accomplishment that I had put into my helmet.

God of Arkham 5555

Good luck everyone

Shade0066

Please check private messages:) think i have an email conundrum.....

Brett Atkinson

Man great job everyone!

Kegan

Good luck to all the competitors. Very unlikely i'll even make the top 100 with how good they all look. Well done everyone!

Absolutely Dahling

Awh, I in my wisdom DIDNT vote for myself. Maybe I should have :p

Phil Monk

We're planning on it!

Aaron Hughes

Dang all y’all are crazy good! Hopes and dreams of winning are as dead as the emperor!!!

Jim Le

Id love to see a reaction video of you guys going through the entries. Might be some good youtube content that doesn't make jamie work too hard lol.

Joey Jones

Finished voting! Great work everyone! Happy i barely made the deadline haha

AustinC

That was hard as 😂 now I'm loading up Space Marine because looking at these made me want to purge for the emperor!

Stryker Venom

My bad! I clicked the link to the folder...not the form. I blame the turkey. Thanks for the help!!!

Bruno

Totally agree. This was a blast! Hoping for more in the future!

Bruno

You guys are too good

Norman Barud

Good luck to all! A last minute reprint failing meant I couldn’t enter but who knows, maybe this next print will finish in time for me to get an honorable mention 😭

Levi Maybrier

Of course you can vote for yourself, just not ONLY yourself. There's no limit for how many you vote for

Aaron Hughes

Is there a maximum number of votes allowed? And when you say no selfish voting... do you mean not to vote for ourselves at all?

Michael Bradley

There should be a checkbox for each entry. Just check whichever entry you'd like to see and then submit at the very bottom

Aaron Hughes

Thank you guys for this! Amazing quality print files and even more amazing contest/prizes. What you guys have done for this community is unmatched!

CK_32

Clicked the link and can see all the entries but don't see a form to submit votes? Am I missing something by chance? There's a good chance the turkey is still affecting my cognition.

Bruno

So it begins....
