Back in March, I launched my second “giveaway” contest. Basically, it was called Mark’s Aztec Building Challenge Contest, and I invited folks to guess as to when I would finish a bunch of terrain for my Aztec games of Feudal Patrol™ games in Mesoamerica (using my Civilizations Collide supplement).
I have chronicled my progress here in this blog and I am hopeful that you’ve enjoyed the journey. I am happy to say that on today, May 22nd, 2021, I finally finished all of my pieces that were in the contest. Not ALL of what I have to build, but I am very close to done – more in a bit.
We had 18 entrants – not bad. And here – in no particular order – are the prizes I offered:
Prize A
Prize B
Prize C
Prize D
Prize E
So here are the results – please join me in congratulating the winners!
You can see how you ended up above – pretty interesting how as a group your average was 5/19 – just three days off!
1st Place: Buck Surdu from Buck’s Blog – just three days early! Taking the Gold for the USA!
2nd Place: Chris Palmer from the HAWKS blog! Taking the Silver for the USA!
3rd place: John from Just Needs Varnish! Taking the Bronze for the UK!
4th Place: TIM from The Imperfect Modeller! Another Brit!
5th Place: Pete from Pete’s S/P Blog (his second win!) One more for the UK!
Congrats to the winners! Buck gets first choice, then Chris gets second, then John third, then TIM fourth, then Pete gets what’s left.
Just confirm in the comments section which one you want, and then email me your shipping information to MarkAMorin@aol.com (I’m sure that will work fine – I have some of yours but just to be sure). That way the winners can choose from what’s left after higher winners have chosen.
Thanks to ALL of you (even if you lost) for playing and to ALL of you, more importantly, thank you for your encouragement and support!!! It really helped me and inspired me.
And check out the blogs listed – all are worth more than a look!
So what’s next for me? The following!
I’m also going to try to make Aztec “pavement” for Tenochtitlan. (no pic).
Until next time!

Congrats to the winners. Awesome prizes, feels like you own a hobby store with years of strata to dig through. Always loved these kind of shops, but they are sadly disappearing.
Looking forward to your conversion of the souvenir to a fully fledged temple.

Yikes a hobby store! Keep that info from my darling wife! I just want to pay it forward a bit, and find some good homes for some cool stuff at the same time.

Well done with getting everything finished off! 🙂 I like the look of the up-and-coming stuff as well! And congrats to all the winners! I’m amazed I got a decent guess in there! As with the previous challenge (which I fluffed completely), I’d like to pass my prize on (kudos enough getting on the winners’ list) so I’ll leave it up to you to choose what you want to do!

Congrats to all the winners! Personally, I’m just glad that I was nearly in the winner’s circle when all is said and done. My guess felt kind of crazy when I made it. As I said with the previous contest, this was incredibly kind of you to put together, Mark!

Please put me down for “D” Mark. I’m hopeful that my modelling club will start up again in a few weeks and a young lad was keen to do some figure painting. Ideally I might be able to encourage him further by donating these fine figures to him. 🙂
