Re: Painting contest?
Any comments, please post 'em here.
@Konrad: Why wouldn't I be entering? It's not as though this is Golden Daemon or Crystal Brush.
Are you afraid of my mad painting skills? I mean, I entered a category at the last GW Japan Golden Daemons that only had four entries and still couldn't manage to place.
Or perhaps you doubt my maths skillz. To put your mind at ease, I will even wear sandals on the day, just in case anyone gets more than ten votes

Re: Painting contest?
I like it.
Will one person be able to win more than one category? If so, then you may want to enter M_i_J onto your certificate templates to save time.

Re: Painting contest?
As there is no cash involved, that Scottish git is welcome to win as many categories as he likes
I think the rest of us will be happy to get how ever many votes we can.

Given that I have managed exactly 0 since NagoyaHammer began hosting painting events, I'll be happy with one.Mike the Pike wrote:As there is no cash, involved that Scottish git is welcome to win as many categories as he likes

Well since MiJ can't vote for himself, someone else will get at least one vote.

Re: Painting contest?
@all : thrrrrsssssspt. Just to prove you all wrong I shall bring my crappest paint jobs, circa 1990. Yeesh. I claw about an hour a night painting time outta my day, and that is in no way conducive to good paint jobs. Mediocre is my target these days, so do not be expecting anything fancy like.

Wow. And then Corona happened. Just....crickets, all the way through to 2023...

Re: Painting contest?
@ mij : When you put it that way. ... Us rubbish painters that work hours a day painting and sculpting and doing all we can to get something that looks good put together show up and then get skunked by your less than 100% work.
Your political aptitude astounds me mate.
FYI no one wants to beat your worst work... Your best work for better or for worse is the mesure of excellentce
@ the rest of you lot better bring your a game.
I have been working night and day until 5 am some days. To get as many categories done as I can. Throw enough spaghetti against the wall hope some of it sticks.
Kenya is also bringing her A game so be prepared.

And I'll enjoy what you guys all put together regardless of where you think your painting skill resides.

Re: Painting contest - Rants and raves thread
I split this thread up and moved the rules and details to a dedicated sticky. Let's keep this thread for comments, rants, raves and smack talk.
