GD Canada.. where da pics ?

[Silphid]

Hi there! I\'m the one who got the Slayer Sword this year. Thanks for the nice comments. I reposted the mini because the original pictures were too large and got crushed by the system (made them blotchy)

Once approved, you\'ll find it here:

Ouch, it was 9.7 at 49 votes? I wonder why people feel the need to snipe like that. I wish nothing but the best to the community whom I learned from, and hope to give back to. It\'s sad some individuals who don\'t like the style I used (and that\'s fine, to each their own preferences) would try to artificially take the score down.

Thank you for your support! I spent an insane amount of time on it because I wanted it flawless. I was very well rewarded for my efforts, beyond my wildest dreams, so it was more than worht it. Learned an incredible deal by pushing myself for that project.

Thanks again,

Vincent Hudon

@silphid don\'t worry about the snipers it all equalises in the end.
AND they don\'t have a slayers sword... (I assume anyhow) well done superb mini it\'s a flawless paintjob I give a big 10.

Glad you posted....

I saw you in the forums and was hoping to entice you into the open

Welcome to the forums and huge congratulations on a superlative job.

Your success should encourage each and every one of us...maybe not to win a Demon or Sword, but just to \'raise our game a bit\'

 

[Astonia]

Yeah, welcome Silphid. Your winning entry is absolutely...well, it\'s hard to find the words. Fantastic!
But I also noticed when looking at the pics that purple and blue seems to be vey popular in Canada. Congrats to everyone who won though, there were some beautiful minis there. wow

Welcome, Silphid!!! Incredibly beautiful piece you\'ve done there. Congratulations on a victory well deserved. And so glad you\'ve decided to de-lurk yourself and enter the Forums. We can always use another brain to leech information from

As to the snipers, try your best to ignore them. They are an unavoidable nuisance. However, if a mustachioed man named Mike appears at your dorr with a hammer, THAT you should NOT ignore ! ! ! ! lol

Hey I resemble that remark! I\'m being given a bad reputation here! Not to mention a complex!

Anyhow:- Welcome Silphid and a very well deserved Sword. I saw the original posting this morning and I voted the only level I possibly could...A natural 10.
As to being sniped it\'s a sign that you are worthy of their jealousy.:wow: Welcome to the CMON Forum Family. (Perhaps you should be afraid.)lol

 

[t_haye2]

It\'s a credit to you, well worth the effort.

It\'s a 10.

Now, can you teach me how to do NMM in one attempt?lol

 

[Herb the bitter]

Congrats Silphid! That\'s an awesome piece of work!

 

[FredrickvonCarstein]

Great Job Vince, it sure seemed like the 400 hours were worth it when you got that sword in your hands. A defnite ten from me. A stunning piece indeed.

Dropped? Scratched? Didn\'t make the cut? Please do tell.

 

[Silphid]

Ouch

Thank you all for your supportive words and comments. I hope to get a chance to write a thorough walkthrough of how I made that model, in the spirit to giving back to the community whom I learned from.

On a side note, I guess I shouldn\'t mind so much, but I\'ve been sniped seriously, dropped from 9.7 to 9.3 in 4 votes... Jealousy? Immature children who do it \"just cause they can\" ? Oh well, what can I do...

It happens a lot. Often the better way to figure out the \"true\" score of your miniatures is to talk to the forum folk. So far you\'ve gottena ten from each and every one of us. That paintjob is as near to perfect as they come. Just because some troubled idiot decided to snipe you down doesn\'t mean you should let it dampen your spirits.

Edit: I want that article and pronto. Don\'t make me abduct something.

 

[FredrickvonCarstein]

Ah so that\'s why you\'re being sniped. Someone put your picture ID in the shoutbox. Shoutbox ID numbers attract snipers like maggots to a corpse.

 

[Silphid]

What is this Shoutbox picture ID you speak of? Where is that? Who did that? ???

Vincent

Picture ID: The Number assigned to your picture (I assume you know this already)
Shoutbox: Its a little feature where you can put up a little message for everyone to see, its on the left side of the screen when you\'re browsing minis.
Who Did It: After 5 shouts the message goes away so I couldn\'t tell you.

Just got home from Toronto and my first Gamesday.

Was a great event lots of Awsome Demon entries, great people to meet and a fun fun time.

I managed to take home a Gold in the 40k Squad catagory (3 months in the making), and an unexpected Silver in Battle Scene.

The Slayer Sword was a great great figure and I was not surpised that it won.

Big Congrats to all the folks who entered the Demons!

Silphid, welcome to the forums! Obvious thing, the victory was indeed well-deserved. Hope to see more stunning work from you in near future!
