Well then it was nice to meet you, Matthew.

I didn\'t identify anyone as a CMON\'er or not at the seminar, but it was great. I can only imagine what getting to sit down for a couple days and paint with Jeremie is like.

I took a lot of notes, and plan on trying out the things he talked about. Some of them were things I had heard before, but his collection of WIP intermediate images really helped bring the idea and what the result should be together.

Thanks, Jeremie!

First time poster. Long time lurker.

Team North America showed up with a primach project. Each had sculpted their own primarch. Rogal Dorn (Imperial Fists), Jagahta Khan (White Scars), Fulgrim (Emperor\'s Children), Perturabo (Iron Warriors), Alpharius (Alpha Legion) and some others I\'m forgetting. Those team North America who did not do primarchs did pre-heresy heros, for example Kharn before he was the betrayer.

40K single and open first cuts were filled with Team north america entries. 40k single was won by Chris Borer with his Fulgrim. Jeremie took second with a crazy eldar harlequin. Matt Fontaine took third with a Death Rider of Krieg.

Jeremie also won LOTR single with a great Arwen. Slayer sword was down to Chris or Jeremie, but I had to leave before the awards ceremony.

Sorry no pics.

aaargh leaving us with such a suspense !!! Have you no shame !!!

Just had a look at the US GW website. Of course it\'s too early to have anything up there; but it did get me thinking, who has won the most slayer swords?

 

[generulpoleaxe]

don\'t know who won (didn\'t go) but here is a taster. (the pic is poo and jeromie\'s work still looks awsome)

 

[Roger Bunting]

That\'s really cool, and it only took silver in the category. I want to see the rest.

Here\'s some Primarch\'s, taken from that tedious bunch of tossers on the marine only board.

They have more but not much, still waiting for the first batch of good pics.

If that was the Dark Angel from his WD article then yes it was.

That land raider was awesome Jeff...any chance you will bring it with you to SD???
It seams that this was one of the best GD\'s ever in the US? At least painting wise! The few pics that I have seen have been just awesome.
Congrats to everyone who won and for that matter everyone who took the time to even enter! Great job guys!

Technically its not a land raider its a IG Heavt Tank made from a LR kit and yes I will try and bring it with.
I will also bring some Mig Pigments and oils with to do some weathering demos if time permits.

 

[olliekickflip]

Damn it...just when I finished weathering my tank! Thats okay...I\'ll just have to make another one! See you Thursday!

[StarFyre]

yay!

congrats Chris.

Sounds like it was the best US GD so far in terms of quality of entries.

Is Chris on CMON?
