Double Trouble painting competition

Double Trouble Painting competition, I think I got most of the entries but given you could only enter one category there were fewer entries than normal. I think this was Chris Buckle's Imperial Fists who I played 2nd game.





I think this was Matt Callow's army



Liked this Techmarine on  a bike, I need one!



Blood Angels


Eldar


The runaway winner of best conversions NafNaf's Harlequin/Dark Eldar Carnivale








Award winning objectives!



Winner of best army and opponent in my first game Steve Horne's Ravenguard








Sorry, haven't a clue :)


Rob Hill's Venator  and Dan Wellington's toy robot ;)




Like, totally Tau!


Best character, Ravnguard Chaplain [?]


Kai-Uwe's Dusk Wolf captain.


Matt Grime's Fateweaver [2nd place] and my own Techmarine [3rd]


Enjoy the pics, given the poor lighting I think these came out better than could be expected.

    1. It is indeed. It was handled a lot better for judging this time. I'm a little undecided about only entering one category though. On the one hand I htink its a good idea but on the other you do end up only a few entries in each categroy. It cerainly makes it easier to choose a favourite but the display can look a little anorexic.

  3. I'm not saying it's the best painted but the DE circus army is my favourite one, thanks for sharing Dave.

    1. It was in the best conversion category, where it was a runaway success. I assure you though painting wise it'd have probably won best painted army category too. If you check out Nathaniel's blog you'll see just how good it is. A huge attention to detail and crisp tidy colours and highlights.

  4. I'm amazed at how well these photos turned out! Some really excellent stuff on display. I think these comps is the area I need to push myself really. Roll on next time!

    1. Camera360 app for you. It can really help in low light with an enhance effect that adjusts the lighting.

    3. I think I use a different app for stickers. Your on an iPhone so maybe it has different features on iOS
