He would have been 45 today. Accidents happen. Love your loved ones.

On March 7, 2014 Long time member and prolific painter, not to mention inspiration and friend to many,Amalor Myrnnyx; passed away. He was always ready to participate in painting challenges, both here, and in the Battletech community as well. Best known for his mecha pieces, he was also quite keen on painting fantasy and sci-fi figures as well. One of the last things he posted was, in response to another painting challenge, a reminder that the real goal was to have fun. So that is what this is, an opportunity to do something in his memory, to paint something in his memory, and a reminder to have fun. Submissions. Anything from any company will be accepted, so long as it reminds you of our dear friend. Submissions should all be in by the 7th of September, where they will be gathered and put together in a video format in time for his birthday. as per forum rules, anything containing nudity needs to be hosted off site and linked

So that is what this is, an opportunity to do something in his memory, to paint something in his memory, and a reminder to have fun. To that end, there will be no prizes awarded,other than the congratulations and encouragement of a job well done. At present, I am thinking of breaking this into two categories. Mecha, and figures. Mecha in this case means CAV's Battlemechs' tanks and aircraft of all sorts, while figures are open to anything else. As there are not going to be prizes, I do not feel this needs to be limited to Reaper only figures. Anything that you think serves as a suitable memorial for James is acceptable. On that note, I have never run a painting contest like this before, so those with experience, and those willing to serve as judges, if you would be so kind as to PM me on what needs to be done. I would appreciate it.

Amalor Myrnnyx, you will be missed! Darksword Elmore Angel (1308)
