[EricJ]

Well here she is, still with some photo issues, but the best I can do for now without a lot more experimenting, which I so don\'t have time for right now!

Vote here

I hope you like her, comments/critisisms/ideas are more than welcomed!

-Eric

PS thanks all for putting up with my slightly self-indulgent WIP thread, it really helped me work through this project.

PPS thanks again Greenstuff for the black background idea, I think it works perfectly for this one as well!

Dude.

Enter the freakin\' Golden Demons. Throw your hesitation out the window.

Just not... you know... the Atlanta one.

[Astonia]

Like I said - you\'re a genius!

 

[Modderrhu]

Comments? Criticisms? Are you serious? What is there to criticise? I\'m in awe.

 

[Valloa]

That is base utterly incredible. Both the base and the paintjob suit this miniature sooo well. I second what Kep said. Go to a Golden Demon Comp!

 

[Joshua]

voted and commented ... now i need some oxigen
i already said it in the comment but i wouldnt be suprised if she enters the overall top 10 (not the pathetic weekly top 10, im talking about the real thing )
i really hope she does its mavelous!

 

[Frustrated Father]

I\'ll join the throng in saying you should enter the GD\'s Eric, I\'m certain you would win several catagories and it would certainly be worth the trip down to L.A. to bring home some awards.

Excellent work .. and this would of won the Chick Challenge hands down ... d\'oh .. now if it had only bee announced a day or two earlier.

All I can say is it\'s lucky for you that California is well beyond the reach of Dragonsreach or I\'d fear for your hands.
Absolutely beautiful, stunning, amazing, etc. etc. etc.

Mail order can be arranged. However I\'ve always wanted to visit San Francisco. Might be a golden opportunity to Kill two birds with one stone. lol

All joking aside Eric, that is seriously nice work. Go for the Deamons.

 

[supervike]

its not all that great..

sure, the painting is flawless....

sure, the color choices are incredible...

sure, it just oozes character....

sure, the base itself is a piece of art...

sure, your posts seem to get unbelivably better each time....

sure...it tells a story just by looking at it....

OK I ADMIT IT, I\"VE RUN OUT OF SARCASM! ARE YOU HAPPY?

All joking aside, this immediately went into my \'favorites\' list and was given a 10.

EricJ, are you perhaps taking applicants for an apprenticeship?lol

Wowses,

this is one of those minis that\'s going to send ripples through the mini community.

Definately on par with the best of the best!

Great concept.

Love it!

 

[tidoco2222]

Surely you must know that there is a Slayer Sword with your name on it. Do not hesitate enter and be the winner that you so obviously are.

 

[War Griffon]

Drool, drool

Fantastic I really love the base as well gives the whole thing a near sinister feeling about it.

Dragonsreach if you are going make sure there is room for me in your luggage and we can both chop his hands off.

Thanks everyone, I\'m a little overwhelmed at this response, it means a lot to me. It\'s funny, I staired at this damn mini just about all night every night for the last 5 or 6 days so looking at the photo before I posted it, I was not so excited about it anymore, a little overload so to speak, but now I get to feed off of all your enthusiasm, it\'s really nice.

And um, noticed I now have (near) SF, as my location, you\'ll never find me, I\'m keeping my hands!

I think I will in time get to a Games Day, and it\'s great to have all this encouragement, now to find the vacation time to make it happen. That may be the real challenge. I was thinking to just turn it into a real vacation and head over to UK GD, but that may be more a dream than reality at this point.

Thanks again everyone!!

-Eric

My brother lives in SF and I am heading that way in a month or so - send me the hammer and I\'ll get him

Seriously, this is one of the best figures to ever grace this site. I\'m sure some with their own bizarre set of rating criteria will give it an \"8\" because you didn\'t sculpt it or convert it, but if this isn\'t what \"10\" is for I don\'t know what is. Great work!

 

[Ritual]

This is one of the best minis on this and any other site! That\'s not feel-good-bullshit, but cold fact! This beats several of the minis currently occupying the top 10 spots. If there\'s justice in this world yours will find its way there.

Congratulations on fulfilling one of your vows not even a fortnight after new years\'.

Cheers,
Anders

 

[Corvus]

top 10 stuff

voted a 10

this mini has a great chance to sneak in the top 10 IMO

 

[Drake Farstrider]

Incredible work there Eric. Voted 10 and left a comment. Really awe inspiring work.

I am intersested to see what it scores after 50 votes, currently siting at 9.9 with 31 votes.

 

[Ritual]

It all depends on what happens when it gets listed on the top-10-last-7-days and the snipers have a go at it.
