so the nomination are in and it's time to start voting for who the Ogre Stronghold members want to award the coveted title of Hobby Hero to this year.

In a website filled with people posting models for Ogre Kingdoms armies, it's pretty clear that this is one of the most hotly contested categories of the year. With literaly hundres of models to choose from, the nominees deserve congratulations for sticking in the minds of the community.

1: Jimmy for his McThundergut Tyrant


2: Stonedog for his Maneater Pimp


3: Don the Dime for his Ogre Pulled Scrap Launcher


The polls will stay open until 20th December at which point we will crown this year's Hobby Heroes!

Thanks
Corai

After all, painting 100 night goblins is something you do in the morning just before you are off to work.

And I think you missed a 0 when you wrote 11 armies. The correct nr should be 110 armies I would think, based on your painting speed.

They are all soooooo amazing... But seeing a Scot Tyrant after reading Macbeth... Yup. Good job to all who were nominated.

Evii, you speak sense

This is Livalil. He is the little devil on my shoulder.

This is Edward the Vampire Gnoblar. He is the king of epic fail.
