Kudos Dave! Making the first cut is a huge feat. Also some of those entries took months to paint. You turned out an incredible model in weeks.
Besides you had the confidence to enter. I've lived in Baltimore my whole life had plenty of chances but never could work up the courage.
Congratulations buddy

Hey Vik? You asked for it....here I am. D's other half (other, not better, let's not start a competition!) I'm sitting next to a huge pile of books, have downloaded a few army tracking apps and started reading some of the painting tutorial threads. Given my second Games Day experience painting an incredibly small goblin, I'm pretty sure I've got quite a long way before I have anything worthy of posting, but I'm looking forward to futzing with some scrap bits to work my skill up (where's my +20 painting skill hat when i need it most?) My main concern with this endeavor was to make sure I got my own brushes so I don't destroy his during the learning process!

Thanks for all the support everybody! It really means a lot! I can't wait to try again next year!
Speaking of The Golden Demon, here are some pics. I did not get a chance to go through the loong line to see all of them, There just wasn't enough time.
So this is my category
There were a LOT of Dakkajet kits in the Category, it makes sense that GW would pick it to sell even more of the kits. It was a great experience.
This FW Bommer was in the finals for obvious reasons, such a well-done job
THis also beat me to the final cut..but it's blurry sorry
I DO NOT have a pic of the yellow Dakkajet, but It'll be in WD and GW's website soon enough I'd bet.
It's good to know I beat all of these, including a Titan
This is when we got into the hall an entire HOUR early @9:00AM to check in our competition pieces, as a result, we were 4th in line (queue for you Brits) for Forge World
This was probably the only time this excellent costume competitor wasn't sweating to death, he was fresh and ready for pictures.
Apparently a blonde in a SoB costume won, but I never got to see her 
We could see the Opening WAAAAGH! From the INSIDE 
I was getting my Forge World goodies, trying to talk to the guy over loud WAAAAGHs, fill out order forms and such for the stuff they didn't have there, but would ship me free, so Lauri took these pics, It scared the crap out of her!  -She deserves a medal! 
FRESH Thunderbolts! ...We were overburdened with fresh plastic crack, so we went back and stashed them under lock and key back at the Hotel,
We were suddenly unburdened! ..And returned to the convention refreshed, knowing our precious loot was safe
Immediately to the right of the entrance was the Staff Armies Display cases
Lauri immediately fell in love with these Purple LOTR Dwarves
My Favorite were these Pirate Ogres..The most Epic GS work I've ever seen
These Bewbs are for you Jake! 
Some Noteworthy Nids, I loved the color..dangerous!
The Forge World Line was almost at the door at this point
We were very lucky to get in first, all fresh, nothing picked over
The new Warhammer Fantasy MMO
It's a free-to-play game too, it looks cool, the guy talked to us (mostly Lauri) at length about it.
I was Distracted by this nearby Club Table..
..In the shape of a ship!
Dammit, how dare you players get your hands in the way of my shot!!
Ahh!..Better!
The other end.
Then I was distracted yet again by the 40K BIG GAME table !
Imperial Tanks were all so-so
The Ork Tanks..OMG!
There were also WHFB and LOTR BIG GAMES set up
There was sadly, only one other club table made of wood, Warmill stuff and a FW Zone Mortalis set, This is the only partial pic I could get
Galorn, you and I need to talk about creating a "Zone Mortalis Compatible" set of products 
There were Many Open-gaming tables set up with gaming going on everywhere
And more sights to see
The Conversion Contestants kitbashes were displayed
This guy won! - He also had ANOTHER one painted and in the GD comp with me!
Here we see Charlie Manson competing in the Realm of Battle Board thing
The Realm of Battle Board thing was kind of stupid this year IMHO
Every set of players just does one step..drybrush the rocks, next group paints the skulls bleached bone, next group drybrushes white on the Bleached bone skulss..on and on and on..You get a raffle ticket, and they raffle off a few complete Realm Of Battle board sets (a $290 value)
-meh
The line just to see the Armies on Parade was as long as Golden Demon
So I didn't get many shots, and not even a good overall one of the winner, except when he was setting up in the moring.
You'll see him in White Dwarf soon
He told me he added the texture bumps on the sails!! -Sorry for the pics, but when you see it, you'll see how he won!
I really like this one too
my apologies, the above two pics were not from AoP, they are from a game, my bad.
Thus ends my Games Day Coverage, thanks for watching during Olympic commercials
