Real Life Compliments....

[Naukhel]

So, yesterday, I was at the LFGS, with my paints and some minis to work on, and giving a helping hand to a couple of friends... I suppose I was teaching them a little, too...
And while we\'re working, I\'ve got my hastily done Menoth starter box set sitting in front of me. Bare minimum gaming standard stuff. No shading or highlighting, or any fancy stuff.

But, I know I did at least one thing really well on them. The whites.
No less than four people actually stopped while passing by to say things like \"Whoa... how\'d you get the whites so smooth?\" or similar comments....

So, to all of you (vikinglodge, reverend, jahecker and StarFyre, to name those who gave me big help/advice in this department -- and all the others who\'ve written about it in the forums)... thanks. Your tips obviously paid off, because I\'m getting credit for it.

Thats great to hear. Just proves that help from CMON and practicing is better compared to just practicing.

 

[Ebonbuddha]

I\'m sorry but I am going to have to disagree with this. People have been painting for years without CMON and they put out some amazing work. I know people who would rather get a root canal without anesthesia before they come to CMON. A lot of it is just determination.
Yeah, I know. I\'m a bastard.

you disagree with people doing better with CMON as a resource compared to people doing it all on their own?

*edited for being a drunk mongrel when posting. please people don\'t let friend post drunk!* *opinon still stands just losing the attitude*

 

[Ebonbuddha]

I\'m saying I know people who have done it and they didn\'t use CMON. I\'m one of them. I also know some peple who don\'t like it here, and they are amazing. And this isn\'t your friend or someone with an untrained eye telling you that it is amazing either.Its some good stuff. They use other resources to find out how to do thing. They,like myself, don\'t limit themselves to this site. That\'s smarter.

Last time I took advise from reverend I ended up in a police cell with a sore face and a harrassment charge...

 

[Ebonbuddha]

The last time i listened to Rev I woke up under a bush in the park without any pants and my wife\'s phone number written on my arm with a note that read \"If lost call this number\".

i can\'t talk about the last time i took advice from rev for legal reasons

 

[Infidel Castro]

I never said my advice was valid! The last time I advised Tim anything was on meeting for a bike ride and I fell off and looked like a twat.

As far as any other advice I\'ve given, it should have come with a disclaimer. And I\'m amazed that in the depths of time I advised the imperious Nauks! Fair play, I\'m chuffed to have had a mention I really should practice what I preach

 

[Torn blue sky]

You mean your Not really a beer swilling lout with an unhealthy porn addiction???

But...but..I trusted you!

 

[Ebonbuddha]

Yeah. I even changed my own habit to make myself in the image of Rev.

 

[Torn blue sky]

He\'s a consumate Conman! The reverend is a lie! A BARE FACED LIE!!!!
how am I going to break it to the revlings???

I find texting is the best way to converse with the younglings and it makes it easier to ignore awkward questions and puppy-dog eyes and also means you don\'t have to leave the pub to speak to them

Also, the wee ones are in the field, toiling to bring in the last of the harvest. The time is coming to take stock and rest through the forthcoming winter months.

Why I wrote that I\'m not quite sure.

And I DON\'T have a porn addiction! I very rearely look at porn, have only ever owned 2 magazines in my life and am extremely monogamous! I drink, but nowhere near as much as a lot of people. I had a pint of Guinness (after 5-a-side football) and a glass of wine last night. That was because today\'s my day off. I\'ve got packing to do due to the move over the weekend. Bought a house! In fact, that\'s a point. I\'ll likely be without internet for a couple of weeks. Wow, what a shitter

ahh, forgotten about that. good day *sigh*. to be fair you had a couple of beers halfway through the ride which probably screwed with your balance!! that nearly killed me that day..

@ mick - how can you have an unhealthy porn addiction?

 

[Torn blue sky]

Thats a story for the Rev meister to tell! I fear a law suit...
But no animals were harmed in the production, I can divulge that much..

Congratulations on the new domicile Rev.
