Well...

After staying up until 1.30am last night and going to work today, finishing the mini off after work - mine is hopefully going to reach Andrew tomorrow so that he can be displayed on Saturday Night! <crossed fingers>

Yes.... The actual colours for his clothing were a hard choice. I went simialr to Vic's original paint job but there are differences.

I do have very ordinary pics but I will wait until after Saturday to post them. I don't think the pics do justice to the mini at the moment.




@ vic: Fantastic mini to paint. I hope you create many more like alistair and morris to paint. Maybe an annual mini for the painters choice award??

I hope my mini gets to Andrew in time for the Saturday Night.

Do people want to see my quickly photographed entry?

"Quickly photographed" meaning: snapped on the painting desk, no proper lighting/difussion and not a nicely presented background etc, all done moments before being wrapped in bubble wrap and posted to Andrew.


I'm undecided as whether to post it now or wait until after Saturday night's judging. I could provide a link and then it would be your choice to look or not? Yes? No?

Yeah... That's what I sort of thought.

And, the pic doesn't do the mini justice - makes it bigger and the flaws A LOT more noticeable!!

Will you or Andrew be posting any pics of the entries received? Please say yes! They will have to be better than the ones I quickly snapped.



But I can still put a link in for other users (who aren't going to Sydney) to have a look at.

Excellent!! :D

I'm happy that it arrived today and will be going to the Camels as my proxy.

I wont do anything then, link-wise. You guys will probably do a better job than my rushed effort for pics.
