Mixels competition winnersMixels competition winners

The fantastic standard and high number of entries has made the judging very difficult, but after much deliberation the panel of 6 judges has made their decision...

First place

So, in first place, winner of Benny's Spaceship, is Captain Flex by Nicolas Bossons:

The judges said:

I love Captain Flex because he has so much character and I like how the builder has incorporated "classic" recognisable pirate features like a peg leg and hat, whilst still retaining a mostly Mixel-like appearance -- LostInTranslation Loaded with personality, love the hat ! -- DrDaveWatford Arrr! Captain Flex is a real beauty of a model! -- Huw Second place

In second place, winner of the Police Drop-Ship, is img_2086 by Sean Martin:

The judges said:

Wonderfully life-like creature beautifully photographed.-- Huw Instantly recognisable, nicely posed and photographed, I particularly like the 'arms' ! -- DrDaveWatford Remarkable to achieve such realism with limited parts. The front legs are a lovely shape with a nice little illegal technique used! -- Caperberry Third place

In Third place, winner of Emmet's Construct-o-Mech, is Hudson by mmillers0001:

The judges said:

mmillers0001 submitted several entries to the competition. All were outstanding and most of them were on our shortlist. Hudson has such character, he almost looks cuddly although I suspect he bites! -- Huw Unique, odd look that gives the creature a lot of character. Looks stable and posable -- Rocao

mmillers0001 has provided photo instructions for his submissions on flickr so you can have a go at building him yourself.

Joint third place

And, also in third place, also winner of a Emmet's Construct-o-Mech, because we couldn't decide between them, is Old Father Flex by theaface22:

The judges said:

Such an original concept, and for so few pieces the face is massively characterful. Really does look like an old man's face! -- Caperberry Unique idea; simple, elegant execution -- Rocao Unique design, and well realised given the restricted parts palette -- DrDaveWatford

Congratulations to our winners and commiserations to everyone else. Thank you all for entering. Let's do it again in September when Mixels series 3 hit the shelves!
