Is the Deinonychus Centerpiece a valid entry for legendary? I see no Terrain listed in the rules.
Great looking minis all! Fantastic work and congrats!
Nice!
Awesome work guys! For this months contest are the elf bikers large or standard for the unit category? I'm planning on painting 6 up but wondering on how quickly I need to work on them?
They'll count as 'large' units.
Very Cool! congrats to everyone! :D
Loved your entry! Do you have tips for someone trying your scheme?
Nice! Never entered a contest before either - thanks so much everyone :-)
Your minis are great! Any tips on the axe? The lighting reflection looks great!
Wow, thank you guys! It was my first time submitting for any kind of painting contest!
Thank you! I really enjoy doing layering by increasing the brightness little by little. Picking a light direction helps a ton.
