This is the biggest project by far I have ever done -250 hours of work at least... I have been working on and off on it for more than a year and am very proud to say that all the hard work was worth it in the end: Chaos Chess won 1st place in the unit-and-diorama-kat plus "best of show" on this year´s Mini-Art-Con.
Special thanks have to go to Crackpot for his feedback and hints and to Katie for being my muse and believing in me.
Hope you can enjoy it although the piccies are not the best -my little photo-setup is just not enough to capture such huge things...
Cheers,
Oli

I can't believe you individually highlighted each of those stones and bricks.... That would have driven me off the edge. Very nice piece.

Also für eine "bösse" Armee wie Midis is mir die bemalung ein bissi zu "plastisch" is schwer auszudrücken was ich meine nur mit schrift und ohne mimik...aber die leibe zum detail bei solch einer mega arbeit gehört beloht deshalb eine 10 von mir. für verbesserungen bei einzelnen minis würd ich jedoch dazu raten sie nicht so "plastisch" (verdammt verwend ich das wort schon wieder) aussehn zu lassen sondern mehr verwitterung einzubauen...vor allem bei den hellen steinen der base schaut es aus wie wenn sie frisch vom steinbruch kommen...aber von der technik her is die arbeit top und eine super verbesserung wenn ich an deine arbeiten von 1-2 Jahren denke Grats zum Preis ...und Grüße aus Wien

"Best of show" trifft es sehr gut. Das Modell ist einfach perfekt. Die einzelenen Figuren sind zwar nicht mein Ding, aber vortrefflich bemalt und in der Einzel- wie Gesamtwirkung einfach berauschen... Wer hier keine 10 gibt hat etwas mit den Augen oder ist neidisch
