Just back in old Blighty.....

Is that you Joe? :D

Seems I am indeed the Expo Media Whore. I (and Seb and a few others) ended up in a local newspaper and I made it onto local TV too! So it doesn\'t surprise me that i made it into another vid.

At work, first time on t\'internet since getting back so no big report yet.

Righto....

How did it compare to Boston.... 3500 entries, I can see the fantasy section must\'ve been huge.

Can\'t wait for the pics to start showing up.

Congrats on your award.

I would say the Historical section was larger than the Fantasy overall.

the thing was so organised (Barcoded stickers on each entry) I expect some statistics to come out from the official site at some point.

On the historical front I\'d say there were less \"Impact\" pieces than at Boston....the BOS was good but the Boston one from those guys was better, and of course without anything like \"Death of Elvis\" the impact is bound to be less.
Technically the skills of the top historical painters are immense but the same figures are often chosen to show their skills and they can look a little \"samey\" after a while.

oh...the awards ceremony was excellent.....
It was broken up by little comedy acts and music, and didn\'t go on too long.

Glad you like it......seems a few others have since got it too - the stuff is even more outstanding when seen in the flesh (aren\'t most painted pieces?) - try to get to Euro as I expect he\'ll be there
