  • Wanna Be on the May Cover of the AC?

    Greetings Everyone:

    It is that time of the month. Time to start our search for the next cover. So, the question is, do you wanna be on the May, 2017 Cover of the Authentic Campaigner? Submit your image in this thread.

    We are looking for images that best-exemplify the look of the authentic living historian. Images taken with period technology only are required (wet plate, pencil drawing, field sketches, etc.) Images that have previously been on the cover are not eligible.

    SUBMISSION GUIDELINES:

    1) We will accept the first ten image submissions in this thread only. Posts on social media will not be accepted. The thread will be closed after the tenth image is submitted, and any images submitted after the tenth will be deleted from the thread.

    2) Once we have ten images, the staff will select the final three. The final three will then be put up for a general vote to the membership of the forum. The winning image will be placed on the front "cover" of the web site for one month.

    3) Make sure and attach the photo to your post. If necessary, we will crop the photo for the best fit.

    4) The Moderators/Administrators reserve the right to remove any submissions that they feel don't meet the standards of the Authentic Campaigner.

    Now, let's see your best images!

                      Had this taken down in Fort McKavett, Texas back in March for the "Imprisoned on the Frontier" event, which was my first "authentic" or "campaigner" event ever. I had an amazing time there and met amazing people. We portrayed the 8th US Infantry in early 1862. I believe it's an ambrotype and is hand colored. Also my first Yankee photo taken with a period camera and is one of my favorites of myself.

                          We will take the first ten images. Thanks to everyone who submitted. Frank, since your image was previously submitted, it was removed from contention.

                          The AC Staff will narrow the selection down to the Final Three and we will have the general vote in a few days. This thread is officially closed.
