Our own Alexi Z (Natalya Melnik) has won the Slayer Sword with a very convincingly remodelled Fellowship of the Ring. Check out the link for pictures of her winning entry! The hobbits in particular are very close likenesses to the actors. Well done Natalya!

Congrats Alexi_Z. Beauty and talent. A rare combination. What did you think of the Windy City? Did you try Chicago style pizza?

Cool! Congrats, Natalya! I must admit I am still trying to acclimate myself to female painters. I know it sounds terribly mesogonistic (sp?!) but when I see girls at games day I automatically think \"girlfriend\" or \"wife\" not \"worldclass painting talent\" which you, Natalya, definitely are! I would love to see my wife take such an interest but she is content with drybrushing terrain and smashing Blood Bowl opponants with her Orcs (she never pays attention to the ball!). I am very thankful that she is interested at all though and encourages me and screams the very loudest when I go up for my Demons.
I saw Natalya there last weekend and I think its so cool that she won the Slayer, these models ROCK! I usually pass over the LOTR entries for the others, I am just not terribly interested in the game. After seeing this Fellowship, though...maybe a better look is in order in the future. Hope to see you at another GD, Natalya! My wife also says Congrats! I will refrain from saying the \"you go girl!\" that she said...aww crap I said it! :D

it was nice to see the 360 views.
it will stop all those rumours about nmm only being good from one angle.

i wonder if other gw sites will do this as well.

Yeah! Well done! I noticed that you also went to the UK Golden Demon, do you have plans to go to that one?

@ Nurglepainter, imagine the scenario of meeting your future wife at Games Day!?!?

Yep. Fantastic stuff as always :wow: The NMM on Gandalf\'s sword is my favourite detail. I noticed, on the Gimli 360 view, that Gimli is done in metallics. You can see the reflections moving. Yet still, with NMM and metallics together, the squad looks awesome. Awe-inspiring work Natalya, congratulations!

Are you sure they are mixed, NMM and metallics? I have a strong feeling they aren\'t. I think it is all metalics and no NMM at all eventhough we are used to NMM from Natalya (brilliant NMM at that).

Congrats girl. Great looking group you made there :)
