iModeler March Awards
Once again it is time for our monthly retrospective - a look back at some of the notable articles posted at this site during March.
March was an excellent month, with 169 new entries adorning the headlines of iModeler during the period, prompting an impressive 2,800 comments and a whopping 42,985 individual article reads.
According to our long-standing tradition we are giving away a pair of awards as a token of appreciation to our contributors. The jury panel this month were @editor, @halvarvonflake and @raikisan.
Every month, all Headline contributions are included in our traditional honorary prize draw. We're looking for the entries that represent the month's highlight in terms of modeling quality and presentation. We also allot an award to a randomly chosen article to emphasize that all contributions to this site deserve recognition.

iModeler Best in Show - March 2018
The jury's Best in Show award for this month goes to John Soh's Tamiya 1/350 IJN Yamato. As has been mentioned in the comments, "we are being spoilt with ship models these days..." - and nothing exemplifies the quality of ship building on iModeler better than John's Yamato. The effective weathering, paired with great photography, create a stunning impression of this huge battleship.

We are also awarding a prize as a token of appreciation to all our contributors. This is selected through an entirely random draw among all the entries of the month. This time, our lucky winner is S. Cubas and his Tamiya 1/48 F4U-1 Corsair.

Well done to the winner and "Honourables"
They are all awesome - great work and congratulations to all!
Excellent models, well-deserved victory! My congratulations!
Morne, you are right; could make a case for each of these projects for model of the month. Every month the depth in the standard of build seems to increase. Very proud to be an iModeler.
Well done! Great models this month!
Congrats to all!
The standard this month raised the bar I think - the judges must have lost a lot of sleep! All exemplary.
Congratulations to all. This had to be a very hard job trying to pick a number one entry from this group. I don't envy the judges for this decision ... They all look fantastic to me.
Well done
Excellent choices!
Every one of them should be proud. All are excellent.
Excellent models! Congrats to all of you!
Yet another excellent month at iModeler, surely the best site for real modelers.

Congratulations to all. All are very fine examples of the art of modeling.
Congratulations to all! They are all superbly built models. Must have been difficult which one to give the award to.
