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.
My vote will be going to Randroid and his Beer and Modelling hybrid blog. I have been a long-time follower of the Gnoblog, always having been a fan of the novelty of wargaming updates interspersed with reviews of great beers and ales. However, this month there have been some great updates, including the usual variety and quality :)

I am more interested in solid painting than beer (don't drink the foul sludge, give me vodka any Christmas of the year), but seeing how the Ogres of the North blog was updated in july, and Randroid has painted an awesome BB Orc team, my vote goes to Randroid.
My hood is my castle...
My vote will go to Keelhauled.  Though only a few posts this month I couldn't help but be thoroughly impressed by his his pyretroll / ogre conversion into a fire belly.  Simply loved it.

A vote for RJ_Payne, 'cause those Wolf Chariots are teh shizzle, and I love me a good chariot.
I don't suffer from mental instability. In fact, I enjoy it immensely.

Gutlord Inquisitor: FORUM FIGHT! Me, I'm betting on the stronghold. Sure, they're outnumbered with thick skulls, stubborn bull-headedness and an inflated sense of self-worth, but hey, they're Ogres.
A vote for Dedled, for freaking awesome Orc-gres. Or Ogorcs.

I would like to vote for Swiss's Chaos Ogre Army Gnoblog

http://www.ogrestronghold.com/forum/index.php?topic=27216.25

The quality and sheer gribbly insanity of his work pleases me.

Hey guys, I would like to vote for Dedled and his Orc/Ogre Army! Since it combines my current love of orcs, my enternal love of ogres, has some great conversions and for the effort to write some fluff! Keep up the good work!

http://www.ogrestronghold.com/forum/index.php?topic=26340.0

PS thanks for the vote for my blog too, much appreciated and surprising considering the lack of Ogres!

Give it up for Dedled and his inspired Orc/Ogre hybrid gnoblog! Enjoy your pet Gnoblar, earmark him so he don't slip off somewhere, and well done on a fantastic blog! That's one win under your belt, and one step closer to winning Gnoblog of the Year! :)

Great entries this month guys, and I for one am very excited to see the competition for next month! Keep up the brilliant work! :)
