Well, I still want to finish it, but there\'s no chance of beating what\'s already posted with the current status, and any time I can squeeze in any painting I\'m going to put towards VIC 9 which still has 2 weeks. Expect my cowboy at the end of November.

Why didn\'t anyone tell me when I posted this that there were only 4 days left, not 2 weeks. I was thinking October 15, not 5. Now I missed BOTH deadlines.

VIC 9 finishes on the 5th. Be told.

I don\'t know if you\'re mis-understanding or just joining in, but it was kinda a joke.

Ah, I see, it was an excuse to plug your work.
/me looks...
And what fine work it is. Well done. A big, big alteration of the basic mini!
It\'s listed under \"Jo Dale\" for those without the dragon-searching patience.

True to form mine is also a severe alteration of the original. Taken totally out of the original context of course.

But now you\'ll all have to wait for me to post it on CMON to see it.

 

[kittykat23uk]

Sounds great, I\'m looking forward to that!

*slaps head*

dang! is the contest over already????? I kinda forgot about over the sept-oct period......

 

[alexgrunt]

Painting pots on their way to France...

Thanks for your painting pots... That\'s really nice from you... I\'m almost crying... That\'s so cool... As Tooshy said elsewhere \"extended family\"... But there\'s no way I show myself dressed as a pink elephant... lol...

 

[Tuubje]

I really didn\'t know about the colour, so I hope you can use it... then again it\'s paint so eventually you will use it

Whooohoo! Magic Blue! It will be my first Game Color (still on my Citadel & Model Color).... I just got it 15minutes ago... It was waiting for me in the post office... They said my mailbox was too small??? How curious this can be... Anyway, thanks a lot!

 

[tooshy]

Pah!!

There\'s nothing wrong with being a pink elephant Alex! I didn\'t know what colour to put in the post to you, but just for that comment, I\'ll be sending you a pot of the pinkest paint I can find so ner lol

I expect to see the very same colour showcased on your next model

 

[VLRM]

Oh, crap! I knew I wouldn\'t have time to paint anything for this, but I just was a couple weeks away and it\'s gone! I will also send you a pot, alexgrunt; please PM me your address and your preferences.

Remember I live in the land of Vallejo paints, but then Prince August is widely available in France and they\'re the same... Perhaps something more exotic, such as an Andrea colour?

I love pink! Have you ever browsed through my gallery? Pic 26088 & 26089? I-kore\'s intestine pink (or GW Titillating Pink) is great!

 

[tooshy]

Think pink.....

Ok, a pot of Titiliating Pink will be on it\'s way to you by the end of the week

Got off my a*se at last...

I have finally got my act together as well. paint is on it\'s way. As it\'s from me you may have to chisel it out of its pot, even though they were new bottles when I bought them.

Great! I received it today! I\'m really pleased with these! I have all colors needed for the next CMON mini (ooooops should never have said that! )

 

[tooshy]

Slow boat....

Hi Alex - just to say that I finally bought your pot of paint this week and it\'ll be on a slow-boat to France very soon. Sorry for the delay

 

[finn17]

It\'s well deserved Alex..

BTW, how are your sister\'s skills progressing? I remember being impressed by her previous submissions

lol She\'s not my sister! She\'s my girlfriend!
She has already painted a 1000 pts eldar army, but she\'s has no free-time anymore Exams coming, and a \"memoire\"[kind of thesis but smaller] to write...

 

[Pellimore]

Anyone up for another round?

After reading through the posts, there seems to be a good number of people that started but couldn\'t finish their minis. If we had a second competition, identical to the first, anyone who missed the deadline could just enter into the second one. Its just a thought. I was looking forward to the creative things that this group was gonna come up with. I knew that I\'d never finish a space marine in time, so I didn\'t even bother entering the first one.

We could even be nice and let ALL of the people who entered the first competition enter the same mini in the second one.

Have fun,
