Hi folks!!! Just put this fella up... he\'s one of the Kraken resins which I picked up from Jeremie B out at GD Spain... this is seriously one of the most beautifully and finely sculpted minis I have ever had the pleasure to paint. This was one of those great times when the moment I saw the...

Hi folks... I\'ve finally now got time to put up a couple of the minis I entered in GD Spain at the weekend... as always would love some feedback and tips on these... they are: My 40K single mini entry, a FW Krieg Quartermaster (which made top ten): http://www.coolminiornot.com/182705 And...

Hi folks... Looking for some feedback on my latest (and biggest most time consuming) mini to date... a ForgeWorld Macharius Vanquisher heavy tank, done up in Tallarn desert cammo scheme. This thing took about three months of work to complete, of which two and a half months seemed to be...

Ok, forewarning, this is going to be a (lengthy) politically difficult subject which is likely to result in some people disliking me... I\'m gonna take that risk because I think this is a subject that needs to be discussed openly. I\'m going to talk hypothetically for now for reasons that will...

Hi all Ok... international competition painters out there... What\'s everyones (recent) experiences in trying to take minis abroad for competitions? Me and three mates are heading out to GD Spain at the weekend and this\'ll be our first international trip for a comp. I have three entries...

Hi all... despite the psychological nature of the subject, I thought WIP was the best place for this.. How does everyone keep up motivation on big projects like vehicles? I am now about 80% of the way through a heavy tank for Golden Demon Spain (in less than two weeks!)... I have always had...

Hi all Well, we\'ve finally booked our flights and hotel for GD spain in a month\'s time... really would love to say hi to a few other CMONers out there... so who else is going? More to the point... who has been before and can help guide us through our first attempt at entering a non UK...

Hi all Don\'t normally comment on products on CMON, but I just got my new Ork Warbiker Mob from GW mailorder (officially due out Thursday, good ol\' mail-order). I got the bikers for use in a conversion I\'m planning for GD later this year... but had to just say how much GW have raised their...

Hi all I\'ve spent much of today trying to order four GD Spain tickets for me and my three painting buddies who are all planning on heading out from the UK to the event in Feb. The GW.es online store won\'t let me select UK as my country and asks for a \'D.I.N\' number (is that equivalent to...

Hi all, firstly, I hope this is ok under general discussion, if not appologies... it seemed the best heading! I\'m starting work in a month or so (doing designs now) for a GD entry, probably for 40K vehicle. I have two ideas I\'d like to persue however both leave me a little concerned about...

Ok, having had to abandon the last thread after it took over ten test posts to actually find a way to embed images (just maybe it should be explained that you need a seperate photo sharing site account and a degree in web programming to attach an image on CMON in the FAQ section?) I can finally...

Ok, following my thread in painting and converting here\'s my WIP on the \'drifting sand\' desert display base I am trying to build for a vehicle entry for a GD in 2008. To re-cap... I have searched high and low for any info or pictures of scale sand dunes or desert drifting sand built for...

Hi all I\'ve been doing quite a bit of hunting the last few months for any info on modelling drifting sand (a desert) in 28mm scale and making it vaguely realistic... and can find NO ONE who\'se done it. I want to make a drifting sand base for a vehicle and although I\'m happy to experiment...

Hi folks... Does anyone know what category in GD the new Eldar Wraithlord would fall into? I did ask at GD UK this year and one of the staff members on the GD stand said he reconed it\'d be 40K vehicle... however, it doesn\'t actually have a pilot, so I got to thinking... would it actually be...

Hi all Been without a computer for a couple of months now after my laptop blew up... so I\'ve now FINALLY managed to get my two UK Golden Demon entries up on CMON today... This year was my first ever GD... I had great plans at the beginning of the year to enter four or five categories.... but...

Hi all Apologies if this is old news, but I haven\'t been on the forums recently... is there still a CMON get together planned at GD in a couple of weeks? If so, where/when/how do we identify ourselves/each other? Cheers! Ben

Hi folks... Quick question... are there any other serious painters in the London/south east England area? I\'m getting to that stage where... as much as I enjoy painting by myself... it\'d be nice to add a social side to this hobby and I\'d really like some like-minded folks to bounce ideas...

Dear all Probably a frequently covered subject...but... Does anyone have any suggestions for sources of brushes for doing VERY fine freehand detail? I\'ve tried a heap of different brushes from a pro-modeling store I use here in London all the time, including a 0000, which didn\'t come to a...

Before I stick this up on ebay... thought I\'d check if anyone on CMON is interested in this... I have a sealed, unopened Tau Battleforce boxed-set which I won as part of a prize in a painting comp last weekend. It contains a full squad of fire warriors, a full squad of Kroot, a devilfish, a...

Hi all... Just finished this baby in time for a competition tomorrow... been working on him on and off for about three months now... http://www.coolminiornot.com/124993 Any constructive criticism is always appreciated! Many thanks!!! Ben
