Hi all, we are back :dance:

It was cool, and IMHO the contest was of high quality. Now I am full of ideas - amazing how seeing so many such good minis works on one's mind. I fell in love in Derwish's works, especially in this mini - first place in monster category - very moving.

Decision about the first cut was a suprise for me.
'WFB Monster' category was the only one where I guessed exacly the right winners :lol:

Thanks to all the painters who were there we had great fun :clap:

Hello all!

Here is the first part of our collection of photos from Golden Demon Germany 2009.

I enjoyed the event very much. I had just another chance to meet people I only knew from the internet (often for many years already) and to see many interesting miniatures.

Don't forget to zoom the pictures if you find them interesting :)

And here are some of the photos:

Some official paintjobs. If you check the full-sized pictures in the gallery you will see that their style usually relies on sharp and strong highlights more than smooth blending:

... Of course there are exceptions:

Large scale sculpts of space marines, which are scaled and cast in the usual scale. Check the (normal-sized) Defiler for scale comparison:

Glossy surfaces on this scorpion looked just excellent - like a luxurious car!
