    I don't have a G&G so, just posting an idea:

    Take the picture through a rangscope of a guy using a G&G AEG against a wall, looking like the poster of Kyle Reese from Terminator One.

    You want Richie out of the competition?

    Just point a camera at him and he'll stop dead in his tracks indefinitely and just throw shapes, the big pose 'softer that he is.

    Sure, he was climbing over a fence once at an event and someone trained a camera on him, and he didn't come down from the bloody thing until the camera was gone.

    Happy to volunteer services for this one :P not bothered about the prizes.

    That would be great. I was reading the terms and conditions, but was no word about group submitions. I think I'll e-mail G&G tomorrow.

    I believe Masada sent in a picture of himself topless draping a G&G flag over his back.


    The competition is now closed and he received prizes 1-5....

    You're wrong Doc - this is Richie's winning entry, taken in his workshop at the back of the shop:

    This is why I always knock before I go in to talk to him....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,140 ✭✭✭✭TheDoc


    I burst a lung laughing


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 11,001 ✭✭✭✭Masada


    How did I become the brunt of the jokes in here already? I hadn't even posted until now...
    Ahhh... I know, your all STILL jealous of how gucci I am and how I've had double page spreads in the top Airsoft mags... Tut tut, Sam, you don't have a hope and I don't even need to tell ya why... :p
    Doc, your me in a fat version, only not nearly as kewl.. If I shat in me hand and polished me aeg with it you'd copy,. Rofl
    rogue, you are a poser, but you'll never overthrow ME!!!

    Man, this typin from an iPhone sh1t is harder than I thought,


    As for the compo though, I was planning on entering just for the craic, their last winning pic looked deadly so it'll be interesting to see how it turns out this time round,.,
    enen if your no pro photographer, give it a go for the hell of it, sure if ya like you can post your entrys up here and If I have time I can tweak them in Photoshop/lightroom for ya before ya submit them.,:)

    i'm sure you can, 99% of photographers retouch their photos before submiting for photo contests...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,641 ✭✭✭zero19


    I'd say your better off not going ape sh1t with photoshop though...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,968 ✭✭✭TNTQ


    Just send them an e-mail regarding group submitions. Will see what they say.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,140 ✭✭✭✭TheDoc


    richie if im just only a more rotund version of you, im clearly doing well in life.

    Your my hero

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,758 ✭✭✭Stercus Accidit


    (2) The contestant must use any of the G&G, Combat Machine, or Top Tech branded AEGs to enter, use of any other AEG brands is highly prohibited.

    Lol at that.

    I'd say they wouldn't show aeg's with magpul crap on them either, its a photography competition with the limited scope of an advert.

    Isn't there a proper airsoft photography competition?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,140 ✭✭✭✭TheDoc


    i think lego run photo competitions you could enter your stuff in.

    If someone is interested in submiting his photos, below is some e-mail conversation with G&G:
    Hi,

    I'm just wondering if group submitions for your photo contest are allowed?

    br,
    Mike

    They respond:
    Hi Mike,

    The answer is "Yes!"
    No matter how many photos.
    Just send us.

    King Regards,
    G&G Armament

    I followed:
    But what in the situation, there is whole team on the photograph? How do you judge such submition?

    br,

    They responeded:
    We'll follow the contest form.
    You can use 10 forms(10 competitor) for 10 photos or 1 form(Team Name) for 10 photos.

    King Regards,
    G&G Armament

    Most important one:
    Hi,

    What in the situation, were our equipment is fitted with after market parts like MAGPUL and DYTAC?

    Br,

    On which they responded:
    Hi Mike,

    Please avoid it as much as possible.
    Must focus on our products.

    King Regards,
    G&G Armament

    Hope will give you an answer to some of your questions.:)
