I recently attended Adepticon 2008 and had a great time! Congrats to the organizers and participants for a great show!

I taught some of the painting classes there this year. I am considering doing so again next year, but attendance this year was lower.

So, I would like to ask the Dakka community, what sort of class would you be interested in, enough so to stay up after a tourney, or forgo drinking and partying at the show to attend in an off tourney hours slot? Some ideas I am considering are:

Constructing (a) Display Board(s) (Subjects include prop construction, airline transport regs and materials etc., lecture and examples only)

How to use airbrushes in the GW hobby (as GW is releasing a new airbrush soon)

Army Painting with the new GW clear paints.

Vehicle painting for the tabletop.

or your idea…?

Also would demos be better than lectures, and would you be swayed by getting materials in the class; prefer imagery examples and lecture over hands on/demo?

I attended about 7 seminars this year. I think yours was the glazing painting one. I enjoyed them all but for me the best part was at the end of glazing you actually showed us how it worked, the beginning part was theory and the why, but for practical use for me, the last 10 minutes of demo was priceless. already got my Liquitex.

On the same note the Hirst Arts hands on demo was great and really showed us how easy the terrain is to make with the molds they sell.

So my vote would be for hands on workshop.

If yours was not the glazing seminars, whoops...
