Painting for charity

I was recently contacted by a representative to a charity event in Gods own land: Texas. I have been asked if I could paint a model of my own choice, for their event. How can I say no to such a thing, a newb painter like me. The even is "Clash for a Cure" which is an event to gather funds for cancer cure research.

I am going to paint a model of my own choice, as long as its from the Privateer Press company. By a mere coincidence, I painted a pyretroll recently and I am thinking ofpainting the same model once more.

This is of course not the final version, but near to finished, going to post pictures of the final version as soon as possible. Anyways, I am as mentioned, thinking of doing the same model again. I think the pyretroll is a great sculpt and has great potential for colourscheme. If you have any other suggestion, please feel free to write me or comment here on the blog.

If you want to know more about the even, you can follow the link from above or go to their facebook website HERE.

Cheers

Hello there.
Again this year, we were a bunch of crazy danes that traveled all the way to Italy to the small village called Monte San Savino. There, we had a great time with fellow nerds watching awesome models og almost all shapes and sizes. Here are some of the pictures I took while there. (Album HERE)

Thanks a lot to everyone I met in Monte. It was a wonderfull trip and it was awesome to see a lot of familiar nerd faces again. If anyone should see a model of their making here on the blog and wants their names along the picture, just say so.

I will also post som pictures of my own models soon. For now, here is a picture of me, Kristian, Bo and Bent, also from the danish group, and also the medal I recieved :D

The Fang 2015

Last weekend I was in Copenhagen with a lot of friends. We all participated in the Games Workshop event The Fang arranged by Games Workshop stores in the skandinavian countries.

Here is the gallery of some of the models entered in the competition in Copenhagen: CLICK

I entered the monster category with my minotaur and won gold.

I also entered warhammer fantasy with my dwarf slayer from forgeworld but didnt place.:

I entered warhammer 40k with my hectore and didnt place.

 I entered open category with Archaon and didnt place. I am not sorry  Ididnt place because the level this year was absolutely relaly high in the categories I entered, except for the monster category where I won :D

I only got to take a single foto myself and that was just a picture of people looking at miniatures.

Next week the grand finale is in Stockholm where my cow will enter the skandinavian monster category and I am sure, not win anything. It doesnt matter, it was fun to be there and participate, hope to be back next year.

The overall winner was Kristian Simonsens nurgle lord.

Congratulations to Kristian.

Painting Crusade 2015

So, finally we reach this years Painting Crusade. If anyone who read this doesnt know that Painting Crusade is, its an even in Belgium for painters and sculpters. There is really nothing happening, other than what you arrange yourself, and this is a good thing. There is a large table where you are welcome sit down and paint or do whatever you like. Mostly people sit and paint or sculpt but its mainly its a wonderfull event where to do some networking and talk with fellowe artists. It doesnt cost anything to participate, however you can participate in their painting competition and if you choose to do so you need to pay a small fee and then you will also receive a special model which is specially sculpted for that particular event. The year after there will be a particular category only for the last years special edition model.

So, we are a group of danish people who have participated in this arrangement a few years now. Last year was my first time and this year I returned to this awesome event.

Here are a few pictures from the danish roadtrip.

First, a picture of my model travelbox, what did I bring to the competition.

During the weekend there I worked on some gold NMM.

There were some really awesome entries, there are some of Max's:

Much of the time goes with looking at models. Here we have the infamous Tue Kaae studying some entries.:
