Announcing our January winners
It is my pleasure today to announce the winning entries among the 123 articles submitted to iModeler during January.
iModeler Best in Show - January 2013
The judges were unanimous: Honza Petr's ( @honzapetr ) Aero L-29 Delfin shines with one of the most exquisite natural metal finishes we have ever seen - and that's only one of the many virtues of this model.

There is more!
Besides the Best in Show award, we have also funded a second prize as a token of appreciation to all our contributors.
The winner has been selected through a random draw, the only criterion being that the article should have received
6 or more comments from other users.
The lucky winner is this 1/48 Tamiya P-47D-2 Captured Thunderbolt by Tolga Ulgur.

That was the proverbial "no-brainer"...the L-29 was/is a standout! The other category winner(s) were equally deserving. An outstanding job well done to all.

Honza and Tolga - congratulations! Really great model!
Congratulations! Fantastic modeling on display by all!
Well done, Congratulations to Honza and Tolga. Congrats to the runner's up too...some pretty impressive work by all.
Honza's L-29 sets a new standard for NMF, and Tolga's P-47 is the definition of the term "inspirational modeling."
The work of everyone else is also outstanding. Congratulations.
Spot on! But with some tough decisions considering the hounorable mentions, especially Maxim's Rata. Well done to all concerned.
...that L-29 - beyond words.
