YAY!! I\'m a Member!

[smokey]

So, as I type this, it\'s my 100th post. YAY, For MEEEE!:flip::bouncy:

ok, enough with the smileys. More important than my Membership, though, is the first mini I\'ve posted here on CMON. Check him out at id #34592. More (better) pictures of him and my other works will of course follow, but for now I just wanted to get a pic up before I became a member.

I put in a fairly long description of him in the artists\' comments, so I don\'t have much to add, other than he\'s one of my favorite minis that I\'ve painted, despite the tabletop quality and bad pic. The paint scheme matches my Deathwing Terminators (the stark white-ness) and I\'m rather pleased with the overall result. comments here or on the mini are appreciated. Enjoy!

Congradulations & welcome to the club:flip::bouncy:
I just realized I was a \"member\" as well. I had been a \"junior\" for sooooo long.

Congrats on membership.

As for your mini, a good solid beginning Shows you have the basics skills to handle your paints and brushes well. A good, solid high-end table top quality work and there\'s nothing to be ashamed about in that.

Onward & upward.

Congrats on membership. Welcome to the over 100 club.

Overall, I like the paintscheme you have chosen, but the white looks a little chalky. That could be the lighting, so I gave you a 6.

Congrats back at ya, airhead. If I\'m ever in FLA, I\'ll buy you a couple. I like the sig pic, too. Tate lives here on Bainbridge Island, Wa. If you\'re ever up here, I\'ll show you where.

Finn~ much thanks for the link. the url for the dread just said index \'cuz it was waiting to be approved.

dauber~ when you\'re at the bottom, there\'s no place else to go but up and on. much thanks for the encouragement, it\'s an important part. because without encouragement, I\'d probably have given this up a long time ago.

Steelcult~ Thanks fer the vote. I\'m gonna try and bring in some extra desk lamps I\'ve got sitting around and get our graphic artist to print me up a good transition background within the next few weeks. hopefully, by December I\'ll have some kicka$$ pics to post of Demio there and some other work I\'ve done since.

Thanks for the comments, everyone, and keep \'em coming!

Yay your a member! And your a six thanks to me! And you deserve it in my opinion.

Is that from Cat\'s Cradle? I love Vonnegut! I have my reasons...

I am so glad you posted that link, because I sat here thinking, \"gee I sure would like to see Smokey\'s first pic, but I don\'t want to have to type that number in. Maybe if I just scroll down, somebody will have taken care of that for me.\"

Now I am thinking, \"gee I sure am thirsty, and I have a very cold bottle of micro-brewed beer in the fridge, I wonder if I ask, my wife would bring that to me.\"

I\'m not really lazy, just opportunistic!!

Smokey, congrats on the \"membership\" and I like the pic. Very solid start there!

Excellent job on the description. Many posters should take note and try to do the same.
