In his own rite, that there model is absolutely the most awesome thing ever. Nuff said.

Entries looking good! Still trying to finish on time, but, well, it looks less likely all the time. Have to see where I'm at after the weekend...

Progress:

Waaagh! Machine. Starting to take on the more bone white colour of the finished product and less the brown/yellow I've been building up through....

Did any of you see the third Iron Man movie? I swear Tony Stark built a honest to God, mother-f***ing terminator!!!

On another note if you go all "Iron Patriot" on Waaagh Machine's paint job, I'll disown you.

(Ork super heroes, because evil needs krumpin')

I'm afraid I'm going to have to withdraw, work has been incredibly busy and I'm going away for business again this week. Good luck to everyone.

Don't think I'm going to make the deadline either

We need a deadline extension so that Arakasi can complete - they are looking awesome so far

I'm all finished but I can't take pictures yet, real life keeps whacking me upside the head. Hopefully I'll have them taken and up before the deadline. I wish everyone else the best of luck. Really hope you can finish your entry Arakasi, it looks awesome even unfinished.

Just to be clear - I'm not asking for any special treatment (or extension) - this competition has been a great motivating force to getting me this far - and they will get finished even if they don't quite make the deadline. I wouldn't want to take anything away from the other great competitors who *have* managed to finish on time!

That's very noble of you.

I'll withdraw too, job was only temporary and I can fork out 300$ for what I need for this.

Stuff that, Arakasi - you need to be in the mix - I'm all for the extension if it's going to mean you can finish up. Panda, what say you?

JUDGEMENT BEING PROCESSED. Justice Required. How long of an extension does everyone want? -1-4 weeks are preferred. Take votes, and if you previously withdrew, you may re-enter, throw you hat back in. No problem.

I'm all for the extension to get some of those who don't have time and those still in progress able to complete...

Amazingly, considering my late start, I'm almost done. Some weathering on the posters and signs in the background and a few finishing touches on the figures. Should be sorted in a couple of days (hopefully)

For now I have this washed out image... Will get better shots when it's finished, with my light box. Have some extra details like a flying monkey and ruby shoes to reveal



or this slightly darker version

Hmm... I think I like the paler version more, actually. Nice job bud.

If you make three months I would join no I still would not finish in time

The darker looks better I think. I am just now realizing what that is. And it looks awesome

i like the darker version of these pics...
and why did you all glue these posters so straight? a bit of lopsided would have been a blessing...

as for extension... i am game for everything... too much other stuff has me trailing off to other "stuff"... i need to refocus on this comp soon...

Some people take pride in there work Vik, they should be commended for that

Thanks guys. I'll get some individual shots as well as a new group shot and hopefully will be better than both these shots... Doesn't help that the camera is on its last legs either...

Thought you might take me to task on those, but the squarly hung posters are designed to be so... They are professionally hung within a frame (need to add this around them). I'm planning some grafitti, a tear or two and also some bloody (not swearing, but red) hand marks...

Will admit though that the notice behind 'scarecrow' was a mistake and is too low - may rectify this one...

oh... frames you say?...hmm... now that needs to be taken inot account of course... well then i will rest my case...for now...^^

also... a guy here made a silicon hand shaped brush... for those sticky and bloddy handmarks...i doubt it if i can find that thread tho...

and at LDD... really? you think so? i think those peeps need to get $&%$§&% because they are bean counters the lot of them^^

I saw that hand template thing as well. I may just have to use that technique... hmm...

@LDD, indeed, professional poster sticker uppers have a code of conduct and work to perfect levels

would be perfect for your purpose...

This is the thread... http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/0/510214.page

ah yes! exactly!

That I agree

you think so?... hmmm... well i had a school day with such peeps... and it always is a bit of a cramp to work with such types of person that do everything straight...sorting pencils by the length and so on...

Sorting pencils by the length? Is that a German euphemism...

well not as some kind of OCD... but as a basic small minded character way of living and working with other men...

I'd like an extended deadline (I've mostly painted 5 out of 10 models, and 1 week *should* be enough for the others, but I'll ask for two, just to be on the safe side.

I'll have some pics up next couple of days, my bloody camera is fubar again, had to use the webcam
