Additional Details:
Photo touch-ups are allowed but please no photoshopping the helmet directly. Changing backgrounds/lighting is allowed. If overly edited, clarifying photos may be requested.
Helmet must be at least 90% scale. If in question, photographic proof may be requested.
Both canon and custom helmets are allowed for submission.
Feel free to add accessories to your helmet to make it unique but the helmet should still be identifiable as from our files.
The social media submission should include the helmet you're working on and mention that the files are from the Galactic Armory Patreon.
Given the historical lineage of the Trench Pilgrim helmet, a white based finish will result in immediate disqualification and ban.
Although the 40k news stings, we think it's the perfect time to pivot to another "Grimdark" universe we've become fast fans of!
Photo submissions and usernames of the submitted content will be used in future social media posts and video content.

Hyped!
Are there limitations on the size of the photo?
Not in theory but they might have to be downsized to be uploaded to the Google form
AM? I Thought it was PM. Dang! Better pull my finger out.
I have to ask. Is it possible to enter too? I live in Greece.
Yes!
can you paint any color
are mashups with other GA files allowed?
Is the email we send it with the one we signed up for Patreon with or the one we send to gain access to rewards?
Hey! New here and really want to enter this contest, am I eligible being located in Australia?
Yes!
Im on it!!!
First time entering one of these contests and just going to wing it and have fun. From the 40K helmet contest there is some steep competition here but you have to start somewhere.
I'm a new Patron. I'm not seeing these files in your store. Where can I get the files for these helmets?
Is printing on K1max allowed? ;)
wooo
You might’ve gotten this question but can you have multiple entries? For the contest?
Only one submission but you can do multiple helmets in the photo
Can’t wait to see what everyone comes up with
Can we do like 10 second video showcasing the whole helmet?
Just a photo but I'd recommend a collage if you're trying to capture every angle of it
Is there a rule of someone not being allowed to enter if they won the previous contest? Seen it to often where its usually the same group of people winning that I have stopped paying attention to any contests from patreon.
Sick! I'm already printing the Artillery Witch helmet.
For everyone who’s doing this good Luck to you may the odd be in you favor don’t hold back. I know I won’t. Let’s make this contest epic
Can you join if you live in Europe?
I would like to know that too
Cool, been thinking of printing something different from what I've done lately. When you say "must be active and vote", I only just joined last week (got those WH40k files right before I ended up in the hospital for the rest of the week). What kind of voting activity would I need to do to make sure I wouldn't be disqualified?
Totally going to give it my best shot! Never entered a contest like this before so who knows what will happen!
Don’t make it your best own it make it happen push pass your limits good luck to you
Are members limited to a single entry? Can we print/submit 2 or more helmets into the contest?
You can do multiple helmets but only 1 entry
OK...ok, I will confess to being a 70yo retired Architect/Engineer who is a lifelong fan of this genre and a Patreon member of Galactic Armory, but...I cannot figure out how to easily access almost any of these files, contests, etc. etc. Any chance that someone (you listening Galactic Armory) might point me at a tutorial, an instruction site that can explain this process easily that takes into account that not everyone out here is a double-jointed nimble thumbed wizard? Thank you in advance. : - )
Hi! Since you're an annual member you've got access to all my files in that google drive link I sent you through DM. In that folder you'll find a sub folder called "039 Galactic Armory Patreon Rewards Folder". That's where all these new releases are getting uploaded. At the end of the month the oldest files in there will get archived to the other folders in the annual libarary
So how far can we modify a helmet? I have an image in my head of what I want to do but it would be unrecognizable from the original stl
Gonna go off the stated rules and hazard that by definition, "unrecognizable" would mean it wouldn't be eligible for the contest.
Hey guys can we do collages to get multiple angles or do we need to keep it to one single picture
"Take a SINGLE picture of your helmet and submit it to contest@galacticarmory.net with the subject line: Trench Crusade Contest Submission (Collages are allowed)"
I told myself I wasn’t gonna enter any more contests…but damn it all - I’m entering this one. I already have an idea on what to do - hopefully it won’t “crack” like my last contest submission
Bring it on don’t hold back there is no points for second best. Don’t hold back or you will be cheating yourself
I saw 3 helmets come through in the Patreon folder but 5 are listed for entry. I scrolled through their MMF store but didn't see any helmets. Can we get links to the others in case we want to purchase the additional 2 from them directly?
Nevermind I see them all listed now. The post confused me since it said only 3 were added but I see all 5 in the July link now. Thanks! Looking forward!
Love the new helmets and will try my best to get myself an H2D. Does anyone know how many people submitted to the previous contests?
We had about 300 entries in our last helmet contest!
Can UK patrons join in ?
Yes!
Ooooooh good choice of base topic, hell yeah!
Was going to buy an H2D, I’ll try throwing my hat in the ring instead
Is this one entry per person?
Usually yes
Is this a contest for printing helmets or is this like the other ones and is a CAD contest?
The last contest didnt even have any modified helmets win and even if so, it's based on community vote. WOMP WOMP
Can’t wait!
