[Cliffio]

notice quite a few of them have some kinda of angel design??
WTF
there was a freakin lady trigger on one of em

how original:)

[Mwmathes]

Lady trigger? Who needs a lady trigger when youve got a THOMPSON E-MAG with a tippman flatline? (and with an AGD flatline as a gas source!

[FooTemps]

Mine is sorta original... all agd parts... I'm loyal to the company.

I'm bad, I voted for myself...

[Hexis]

for a more detailed look at #19:

Hexis' Dream EMag (http://www.visi.com/~mjb/AGD-DreamEMag.jpg)

<B>Note from Miscue: We said he could do this, because his contest pic came out really small and hard to see. Webby will update later, this is temporary fix. If there's something wrong with your pic, PM a mod... we'll take care of it... and ultimately Webby... but it appears that the rest of the pics came out just fine.</B>

[FooTemps]

Looks like hexis has the early lead...

I'm wondering, did you downsize mine? It looks a little different from original... I can see some minor imperfections that weren't on my original... Oh well, it won't hurt my picture too much...

[Miscue]

I don't know which is yours. If you think it's a problem, put a link to a better pic in here... and we'll ask webby to take care of it when he can.

[Miscue]

Here's mine again... which isn't in the contest.

[manike]

Is it just me or is one of those FantasE Mags a cocker... lol

[JanStah]

It's Number 22!

http://www.stahlhacke.com/misc/JanStah1.jpg

Notice the funky milling and cool Alien Barrel (tm)...

Also, the grip frame has been 'lifted' from a Beretta 9000s... A fine euro-designed handgun.

Manike: Yes, I noticed that. Some people seem to be confused about the 'Mag' part of 'Fantasy Mag'...

Anyway, Vote for me!

Jan.

[FiTiRPiLiT]

hilarious! just a note to all who entered, it's not cool to pimp your entry. we should keep this an anonymous vote until the contest is over, it's more fun that way anyway! cheers!

[omni]

Humm my design has been resized too!

You can't read anything I wrote at all ... If you'd like to check a full picture, I asked if I could post one. I'll put it up if I'm allowed.

[Mwmathes]

hmmm. Just Curious, but when i submitted my pictures i was pretty sure that i put TWO immages on there? What happened to the cut-away drawing of the drum? Couldn't this have been put on the same 'large' page, if not its own thumbnail?

Webmaster-

Sent you a PM about the numbering scheme in the gallery.

[Shaft]

Looks like some common themes. Z-Egrips and long barrels.
I really like the idea of a Z-Egrip ("EZ-Grip").
Not always.
I looked for my favorite EZ-Grip Mag in blue and voted fer it.
Good luck folks.

[Potatoboy]

since he isn't here to defend himself yet, i'd like to say that #18, HaveBlue's submission looks like it got corrupted somewhere along the line.

[thei3ug]

i kind of like 38 myself. it has this... organic milling scheme i can't quite describe.

[Webmaster]

To all:

Lets suspend voting till tommarrow - OK? I have a few things I need to fix and then I will whipe out the poll and repost it...

Hexis needs to have his resized so that its readable.

I goofed up and miss numbered two entries...

All of the entries have been shrank to 600 pixels wide due to size restraints. I am here for the users on 56k!!

If there are any other goof ups - please email or PM me so I can fix them tonight!

thanks!

[Chef123161]

My entry also got downsized.

http://people.ne.mediaone.net/chef123161/Chef123161-1.jpg

[Sledgehammer]

I like No. 30.

Looks cool and doable.
I really like the Idea with the different size grip backings (Hasn't it been stolen from the H&K P2000 service pistol?).
The relocated buttons are also kinda cool.

[Gunga]

Hmmm...I'm showing the poll results at the top, but I never voted. :(

My roomie isn't into paintball, and he doesn't know about this site, so he wouldn't have done it.

Anyway, I vote for #30. :)

[cphilip]

Read the whole thread and you will know why you cannot vote and will have to wait a bit and re-vote or vote.

Heres a copy paste from above Webby's comment:

[kilaueakid]

I don't know about you guys, but #37 seems the most doable, and looks the best in relation to other products in the industry. My hat is off to you #37.
~kila~

[Have Blue]

Yup, my entry got corrupted somewhere along the way apparently.

Here's the original:
http://www.airsoldier.com/~haveblue/scene5.jpg

My entry also apparently got downsized, which I hope doesn't kill the readability of the text (I worked hard to get the text just small enough to cram in all the wording while still being readable).

[Mwmathes]

Im shocked at all the people who complain that their work got downsized. Shartley and Tom specifically stated what sizes to use. I put a lot of time and effort into my drawing, and im happy with the way that mine came out! Even if I had a website I don't think I would re-size mine from what AGD made it out to be.

And if you want to complain about how "you cant see the detail" then maybe you should have spent more time reading the constest rules, or the Q&A to see what size you should have made your immage! It was clearly stated by Shartley that the immages would be re-sized if nessary, so you could have spent some time re-sizing them yourself. (So you could see your detail)

my $0.02!

Read? How do you do that?! ;)

[synreal]

<b>-kilaueakid</b>
#37 thanks you ;)

[Have Blue]

Mwmathes -

Correct, Shartley stated that we should keep the width to 700 pixels or less. Several of us chose to make our images 700 pixels wide (as Shartley said would be allowed), yet they were still downsized.

Yep. Ooops :)

That's exactly why we were allowing temp links to better pics... now that webby has it handled.... moot now.

[Dave]

Hmmm, so far looking very good! My hats off to all the contestants! Good job. I figured that now everyone can see the fantasy E-mags, I might as well show mine...I did it about a week ago, too late for the deadline, but I had a lot of fun making it-I didn't even know I could! So here ya go-

The finish color is a Powdermist Blue

[Blennidae]

I haven't been able to vote due to the glitch that is being worked on. When I am able to #30 or will be getting my vote. Whoever did that one, nice work. Very original.

[Have Blue]

I'm interested in knowing what tools everyone else used for their images. Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro, etc. certainly for most images, but what did everyone use for the rendered stuff? (I used a mix of Cadkey, IronCad and Pov-Ray).

[Hexis]

I used SolidWorks and 3DS Max for mine. I didn't have much luck with cadkey, was very fustrating on the 3d side (tho it was the first 2d tool I learned).

I liked Solidworks, allowed me to do very nice detail.

[The Mag Man]

Where is my picture? Its not up there at all.

[Motomaz]

# 12 seems to me that it is the best. Just gonna say nice job to all the people that did this contest and nice job to #12.:p

[MajorDamage]

I'll take some french fries, a coke, and the #12. :D

ENDO!

[Chaos]

My top 3 fav's : 37, 31, 30 in that order, #1 vote for me is 37 tho the integrated palm is cleaver in 31. Sorry i couldn't enter, I'm wayyy to busy at work.

[skipdogg]

there is my vote :)

[Vegeta]

Mine was sevcerly reduced due to my igorance in not being able to Re-render my imagaes.. and since the names are the filenames.. and since I found others that had posted theirs in this topic.. heres mine: number 41

[Ityl]

webbie-I had a word file with mine to explain, cause it looks like everything else right now, any chance of it being up? Thanks. :)

[zads27]

*shakes head vigorously*

*sigh*.. cocker pneumatics, back blocks? Angel LCD screens?

so unoriginal, i was expecting better..

though..

#30.. I do enjoy seeing the g36 type foregrip look on it, plus the new p2000 interchangable grip backs ;) great to know there's another HK nut on here. (perhaps you should have even integrated a capsule-less paint shooting system :D )

[gimp]

Wow, there are a lot of cool guns. I wish we could have primarys or something. There are 2 I like, one for it's creativity and new ideas, and the other cause it looks so darn cool.

[FooTemps]

Arg, if the contest didn't end so early I coulda done a better job... I didn't expect this to be so hard. :sigh: I only have one vote and that's from me... I like 38, 37, 30, 19, 18, 16, 12, and 6... I liked a lot of them, to bad I voted for myself...

[Major Ho]

D'oh! Too little too late
My idea:
Dual Emag
Z grip w/ ring trigger
SFL millings
ACE
side breach or vert feed
LCD window
In metallic blue anno

Imagine playing with that monstrosity

My idea:

Emag with 90* rotated battery grip.

Full modular system: Modular z-grip, modular breech, modular battery/ board assembly.

Custom milling

co2 and n2o compatibility

Vert p/f(search for it) breech available

LCD on modular battery/ board unit.

ACE

Dual valve input thingy

Super bolt

Hexis' retention mechanism...

Now this would be a monster... to bad I don't know how to render or photoshop that.

[PaInTbALL zAcH]

check out #38. its not mine but that thing is pretty cool. Good drawing skills on the computer. I havent voted yet though.

[deded]

I haven't had a chance to vote yet... but I feel mine needs some explaining.
This is the text that I put with my entry.

#6



The picture shows 2 large views of the same
marker.

It is completely modular.

The body can be switched from warp to vertical.

The grip can tilt forward for a z style grip!

The foregrip/battery holder can be
*tilted up to the left or right* to give
a vertical foregrip when tipping the marker over around the bunker when
using a warp feed!!!

It also comes with a short barrel and a long barrel.



Even if you have already voted and/or are going to vote for someone else, please take a close look at mine and tell me what you think!

thx:D

[bond1313]

Dang the poll closed fast, I did not even get to vote.:(

[deded]

its not over yet... its just closed for tonight!

[Webmaster]

Closing this thread - will re-open a new one tonight!
