Multiverse Monday #155: Clod Soldier with Greatsword

Well, it's been a while since we had a new Earthenkind model, and with the scanning theme of our current Kickstarter campaign, I thought I'd give sculpting a clod soldier by hand a go.

So, with the release of this model, let's also do a contest why not? We'll be posting this dirty little fella to the broader public with a contest announcement tomorrow, but we'll give you (our patrons) a day's head start on the proceedings!

CONTEST RULES

Sculpt a clod soldier (or other Earthenkind character) by hand. All entries should:

• fit within 40mms in the X, Y, and Z dimensions.
• be sculpted using epoxy, clay, FIMO, Sculpey, or any other physical medium that can hold up on its own.
• be unpainted, showing the original materials.
• generally follow the style of other Earthenkind characters.

If your piece is selected, we'll ask you to mail it to us so we can scan it (and we'll cover shipping costs via PayPal). Your submission will then be mailed back along with any physical prizes. Any models that are selected will become available as free downloads as part of the Earthenkind collection, and all artists will be attributed.

DEADLINE

Email pictures of your sculpt to illgottengames2012@gmail.com (or tag #clodbash2021 and @illgottengames on Instagram) before the end of 2021. We'll assess submissions and announce winners sometime early in 2022 (to allow time for shipping, scanning, processing, et cetera).

PRIZES

• First Place: $100 gift card to the Old School Archive, 3d prints of all selected entries
• Second Place: $50 gift card to the Old School Archive, 3d prints of all selected entries
• Third Place: $25 gift card to the Old School Archive, 3d prints of all selected entries

The Old School Archive storefront will be opening in December, and will be active by the time gift cards are issued. The selected Earthenkind submissions will be printed in resin and sent back along with the original master.

Anyway, that about does it! Today's model prints support free via FDM, as per the usual for Earthenkind and Multiverse Monday models. We're hoping to see some cool new clods, so get sculpting, and let us know if you make something!
