Hope you're joking Barks!<br /><br />I realize that such performances are Awe inspiring and can be intimidating. I know: I've been playing with miniatures since I'm 11, I have painted one for the very first time not two weeks ago! I'm 34. The thing is they can also be inspiring: I wouldn't have painted that miniatures (a dozen of Brigade Models Power Armour covered with the simplest of base coat, wash and dry brushing) if I hadn't be drooling on all you guys miniatures! And I mean especially the ones that aren't of an unreachable Sixtine-Chapelish level.<br /><br />From a practical point of view? How do you prevent "professionals" to enter such a contest? Where does very good amateur stop and where does professional start? How can you be sure who's actually behind a given entry? I considered baring "pros" from entering or making two categories "pros" and "amateurs" but I haven't figured out how to implement such a measure so I didn't do it. I'm interested in practical ideas on how to organize next year's edition (through here or on titaniumdropship@gmail.com)<br /><br />I am sorry it comes as a surprise though. Especially if some people didn't submit their work because they thought they weren't allowed to. I tried to make the rules as clear as possible but keep in mind this is my first organising anything like this. <br /><br />Finally, before smashing your figs keep in mind there are three categories and three prizes per category!Trojan Pointshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01566215177738347634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2225875593099728358.post-48116280843879284542014-02-25T19:04:17.928+00:002014-02-25T19:04:17.928+00:00Guys, I'm getting a lot of "life is worth...Guys, I'm getting a lot of "life is worth living anymore" here...

Closer inspection of the entry rules for the comp would have been good. Had I known it was to be pro's too I would have let some our our professionals enter their own work from our brands enter as well. We will see what and who wins but my own ideas.<br /><br />Don't smash your miniatures lads. Be the best you can be and that is enough for anyone. After all no one is good at everything and I can barely hold a paint brush.<br /><br />GBS<br />www.15mm.co.uk<br />www.theionage.comGavin Syme (GBS)https://www.blogger.com/profile/07820352168938167913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2225875593099728358.post-21507440689746577882014-02-25T12:19:09.652+00:002014-02-25T12:19:09.652+00:00I'll get me coat....I'll get me coat....<br />GJDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05246536496252658467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2225875593099728358.post-73119464415668803982014-02-25T11:51:02.221+00:002014-02-25T11:51:02.221+00:00Welp.Welp.Allison M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08362700513221195102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2225875593099728358.post-13052725786587635532014-02-25T11:12:39.512+00:002014-02-25T11:12:39.512+00:00I'm just going to smash up all my minis in des...I'm just going to smash up all my minis in despair...Barkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04389368754759452544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2225875593099728358.post-84178036696686091712014-02-25T11:07:39.592+00:002014-02-25T11:07:39.592+00:00Lol and here I was think I may have a slim chance,...Lol and here I was think I may have a slim chance, these are the best 15mm vehicle paint jobs I have ever seen, how do people do that.
