Frustrated Father

The time is upon us for the next Wyrd Painting Contest which has developed from its modest start to a contest that now, with the help of the miniature community and generous sponsors, will become a quarterly event held year round with the theme of the miniature changing from contest to contest!
TOTAL TESTOSTERONE is the name as well as the theme for this next contest which encompasses anything and everything (well, mostly) that is man, or better defined as male. Overwhelming muscles, the need for a big weapon and the underlying instinct to show off for the fairer sex? If the answer is yes, then your miniature is more than qualified for the Total Testosterone painting contest!
The contest is open to any and all, and the choice of miniature is yours to make, from any manufacturer, whether fantasy, sci-fi or something else altogether. There are several categories to enter and you are welcome to enter each if that is your desire.
For your miniature, it must be male and to be more specific, a human or humanoid type. Examples are: Humans, elves, dwarves, halflings, centaurs, male vampires, ogre bulls, WWII cyber-zombies ... etc. The list is rather long and and open, but if you should question it, please contact me and I will give you a final decision upon it.
You cannot enter anything that can be defined as a critter or monster (no remote resemblance to a human), and that includes badgers, dragons, stone trolls, skeletons (even if they have the proper amount of ribs!), etc. Although you could argue that the creature is male, that is for another contest down the road and I don't wish to mix themes.
The contest will run from June 10th to July 22nd, after which, all contestants entries will be placed upon this website anonymously. Voting will commence from July 23rd to July 31st, and depending on the number of votes and comments, will be posted within a few days of the closing date.
Prizes will be awarded to the winners of all categories, as well as prizes given randomly to entrants to encourage participation. If you take a look at the list of sponsors, you'll see that there is some seriously cool product that you have a chance of getting your hands upon.
If you are interested in supporting the Wyrd Painting Contest, please contact me. Below you will find the links and banners of those that have already pledged to support the contests. To them I say THANK YOU, your support and enthusiasm is appreciated.
