Space wolf dreadnought & Golden demon space marines

Woz up guys. this was my entry for golden demon space marines that i worked on over 2 months for the contest I got nothing for it, not even a finalist that i thought was odd as the small number of entry's maybe 20 in total to the vehicle category, anyway lets not talk about golden demon judging  as its a conundrum at the best of times, painted in the classic eavy metal style, not a conscious decision just the way the vibe took me at the time.

It was a fun day at least i enjoyed myself and was good to catch up with other painters I've not seen for a while. i liked the way the staff took away your model to be placed in the cabinet from a large table at the side. instead of the trying to hand your mini over the barriers with other people/boxes/elbows argh! a better system i thought.

The single model category was by far the largest amount of entry's as the normal GD and the other category's were alot less maybe 20-25 vehicle 15-20 squad and duel maybe 10? unbound category was very thin less that 10 entry's i would say. so personally i would have felt less pleased to win a demon from one of these very small category's but hey that's me. not to discredit anyone as the winners were very nice models. What i mean is i would have felt more pleased with myself to win a demon in a category where there was 100 entry's than 10 entry's, comprende !

so no demon for me but i did get a finalist pin in  space marine single model that was good as the large amount of entrants.

Not sure what i think of these small events maybe they will grow in time, but i had a good day thats the main thing.

peace out.
