  1. meh! Great stuff Rob. Was a treat as usual listening to you beat yourself about the head because of the casting issues with this beasty. Turned out lovely in the end. The base is a winner on its own and the dino's skin looks so convincing. Good stuff, now stop typing and get painting!! Nigel
  2. Haha I would have to be very very drunk so I mess my entry up so badly that you stand a chance. Just resign yourself to second best. (fingers crossed)
  3. noo then big fella, how goes it

  4. My little fella Archie occasionally has an imaginary friend. I think it shows a great active imagination. I really wouldn't worry about it all. He also uses it as a way to get extra chocolate etc.... as his friend needs it. I was obviously born yesterday and fall for it everytime. :laugh:
  5. @Matty HAHA now you are getting into the spirit of it. You gotta believe. I really do wish ya well mate, this looks outstanding now. Nigel
  6. Hi Matty I also do not want to sound like a parrot but I think it will definitely benefit from upping the highlights, and deepening the shadows. I know automaton had a good method of increasing the (it may be available on Oz Painter but I read it here) http://www.frothersunite.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=13701&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=20 highlights on red without dragging it into the pink. This may be a method you want to try. I think the blood could do with being extended and the face still needs something as I mentioned previously. I am glad to see so many people are giving you the same advice, it saves confusion. Nigel
  7. I may take the big demon out and spend more time on it actually. I just wish somebody could see it proper, and give some good crits to work on. As I never got any decent pic's of it. But if I keep it out on my desk for the next day or so I should spot some stuff to do.

  8. HaHa You wish. I think you may do well yourself Matty. Just keep plugging away. Your entries at GD really were good, you just need to add that Extra something. It really is the thing that makes a difference. Its just impossible to teach really.. more of a light bulb getting switched on one day and all becomes clear...... oh dear now I sound like a shorter fatter Yoda. Hehehe Glad you like Libby. Not sure if its so much better than the green demon, just different. I have lost motivation for it really. Putting a drill bit right through her head and into my thumb and dropping it pain nearly made me give up a week ago. All I see is errors and flaws, but I think we all do that. Gonna be a good day. Good luck mate. And if i can't win I hope you do. Nigel

  9. Oooooo that is looking ACE! Fancy swapping it for one of mine ;) With quality like that you definitely have a chance in the comp, much higher quality than your last years entry.

  10. No I have painted Libby on the Sabretooth. Turned out well. :) The angel will be for Euro I hope. Here ia a quick crap photo.http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f267/talonicus1/libby.jpg It is a lot better in the flesh so to speak........ I hope. Nigel

  11. Haha, I'm leaving to go down to Cardiff on Thursday, so any more painting has to be done then. But I'v also got the Iron Painter to get done, and I want to make a decent start by the weekend, so I'm not cramming it all into one week. Aye, seems some decent painters will be there! Of course none of it will beat mine. (I think I need some ego stroking tips from you, that was pathetic.) But aye, il look out for your 'glow'! What model are you doing? The heresy angel?

  12. Ha bloody Ha. Just look for the crowd. They will pobably be around me. Basking in my brilliance. See my EGO is still there. :P Talking of ego, I see Tim C is attending, and the guy who spent £1000000 on custom etched brass for his baneblade that should of won spanish gamesday. Its gonna be a good comp. Notice I am still bitchy as well. Got wed, thurs and friday off work to finish my entry. Get to my hotel and get pissed. can't wait.
