I\'VE FINISHED MY DIORAMA!!!!!!

WAHOO!!!!!

:flip::bouncy::flip::bouncy::flip::bouncy::flip:

Stated my other entries, weirdly enough a 40k squad that will fit into a diorama (which I have started doing drawings for). Aiming for a \'hat-trick\' then its off to Euromilitare for some \'historic stuff\' @54mm n\'er to return. If no demon this year, euromilitare will appear early :D

:drunk:


Jeez, some people!


Thankfully, I have four entries which are in a semi-finished state already...

A 40K vehicle entry because it was finished for another comp and just needs some \'tweaking\' to make it ubercool.

A 40K monster entry which I almost finished for GD last year but then couldn\'t go, but it needs re-basing because I had to rush it last year.

A WH single entry which I had originally planned to enter in Salute but which wasn\'t quite finished in time.

A 40K single entry which is still being built... but isn\'t huge and shouldn\'t take more than a couple of weeks to put together and paint up. (famous last words, thought my vehicle would take a few weeks, ended up taking 170hrs over three months!)


I actually hope to finish stuff on time this year :)

I am always modest. I just BELIEVE in myself.
Someone has to.

I will be entering the duel Category.
So silver and bronze will be available......

Cant wait for GD now, need to start prepping my entries but in fairness i have probably more time than most to paint mine up.

Still should be a good show out looking forward to seeing the entries, just hope i can excel myself and do well. :D

Good luck to everyone

Well I ordered my ticket the other day and a place in one of the lecture thingies they were offering (ought for nought :D ) but it may be a case of not being able to attend as it looks like my flight out might be on the Sunday now :( however as I haven\'t submitted the paperwork for the flight yet it may well be a case of suck it and see.

I might drive up this year... last year on the motorbike was nice and fast but it lashed down on the way home and I couldn\'t really shop as I couldn\'t carry anything.

Well Tickets are bought and paid for, as are the coach tickets. Watch out I\'ll be having a LARGE Coffee on the way down.
All I need now is to paint something :rolleyes:.

I\'ve had some good ideas but trouble is they are complex and I can\'t be Ar**d going to an inordinate amount of effort for them to be dismissed out of hand by some Oick with no concept of the competition who\'s been dragged out from a shop.
Anyone detect a note of bitterness creeping in about last years selection standards there perhaps? :D

i have been able to book more commision work in due to me not entering so the state of the judging doesn\'t bother me :D

how many entries will break the rules this year and and still take resin i wonder (as the judges never seem to enforce the rules anyway!)

As I said earlier I have my ticket and a seminar ticket but I don\'t know if I will be going or not due to flight plans not being confirmed until about two weeks before if not the week before :(

At the end of the day entering is not really something that worries me my main reason for going was to meet up with everybody as it will be my last chance for a year at least and now that may not happen.

Good job I will be going to the Platoon Britannica event so I can meet all friends their if I don\'t make GD.

there will probably be a meetup this year... at the hotel bar?

We should all bring deodorant this year... sort the masses out.

no need for that kind of stench.
