Sound stuff....

Just to let you know that I have dealt with Game-mart and everything has gone very smoothly and I\'ve had great service

I have had nothing but excellent service. After all, Beelzebrush (Mr Gamemart) is one of us after all

This will be my second order, I thought the owner was one of the forum lot, hence why i thought i could get a quick answer. I still cant seem to load the page though, maybe some of my settings have got messed up, will have to try from a different computer, thanks guys

Hi Jkaen

Sorry to hear you are having problems!

From our experience and assuming the server is working fine (which, thankfully, is most of the time ), this problem usually occurs when your computer\'s internet settings are set to not accept cookies. I\'m not much of a techie, but the solution is usually found in the internet options > internet privacy/security. I have mine set to medium and it works fine.

If you have any more problems, drop me a line and I\'ll happily sort you out, so to speak

Cheers!

Hi Beelzebrush! Well its November 6th now, so what news of the painting competition? Not many people entered but I did and I know at least one other got theirs in on time...

Ended up placing the order from my works computer, will play with my cookies when i have abit more spare time (these things tend to snowball in my experiance)

 

[kittykat23uk]

I\'ve had good service from them so you shouldn\'t have any problems hopefully!

Well it seems that this forum is a bit obsolete now seeing as the original problem has been solved, but I want a chance to give old Beelze a slap on the back.

I\'ve used Game Mart a few times now, and every time I\'ve got good service. No messed up orders, very quick despatch, and everything well packaged. What more could anyone want (apart from free figures!)?

 

[kittykat23uk]

Well, since you\'re asking Sturmhalo, there\'s always room for improvement so might I suggest slightly cheaper prices on Confrontation? Tartan Entertainment is the other place that I shop for Conf. stuff and their prices are significantly cheaper than Game Mart. However, I tend to combine ordering vallejo paints with Conf. minis and then it\'s not so bad, plus the discount on preorders is rather nice and they also have a loyalty scheme which is another plus! Shipping is also fast so thats good too.

Regards

Hi Kat

Well... as you say it\'s the 6th today and the comp is over and I\'m currently mulling over the huge amount of entries (2!!). I\'ve just put a new page up on the GameMart website but have hit a bit of a snag which I\'m currently trying to resolve!

To keep the suspense unbearable, I\'ll let you know the winner later in the week!!

I have to just say that both entries are very good indeed and would like to congratulate you on your effort.... and to all who didn\'t enter :moon:

I\'ll organise another soon and probably extend the deadline a little (to give the other lazy so-and-so\'s a fair chance )

PS Kat... your entry is superb... I love the fur effect on the wolfen and well... in short wonderful!

 

[slidedog]

Kat and I await your decision! If I had a vote I\'d go with hers, to be honest. She has a clean look to her minis that I am working hard to achieve. Only recently has my painting gotten to a level where I want to share it much. But I am very happy with my entry and those may be the best mini photos I have pulled off yet!

And by the way, being from the US, what are those pounds thingys? Is that a currency or a unit of measure?


... ( Just a shot across the pond! I have done a bit of business in those pounds thingys!)

 

[kittykat23uk]

Thanks guys (blush) you are both too kind. I think Slidedog\'s entry is very good and it is certainly going to be a stiff fight even considering we are the only two entrants.

I\'m glad you both like the fur effect. All my wolfen are done in my patent fluffy look (I am a great fan of Werewolf and the art of Ron Spencer in particular, which is why I like my wolfen to look like they have fur).

I have to say though that my Wolfen Crossbow 3 is based a lot on Drodo\'s wolfen crossbow (not sure if you picked up on that), with a few differences - most notable on the blade, and tribal markings on his loincloth affair. But I just think it\'s a perfect colour scheme for that particular model, I loved the grey wolf look to that piece.

The solitaire is based on a husky colour of black face markings and black fur on the back, contrasting with the very light limbs and front.

I\'m now working on the Howling pack.

Regards

Kat
