Summer 2014 Miniature Exchange

[Flamehawke]

I have to admit I did the same, but then I have back-up on making sure I get them all out

I'm in.

Just to clarify, I will only assign you multiple partners if people show up late and need partners.  Trying to get a good match up is hard.  Trying to do it when different people have different number of miniatures they'll paint and multiple partners... way too hard.

*bouncing in*  me too!  put me into the list. :)

Also there were some amazing diorama's an bases shown in the last exchange -can anyone point me to some how to's for making them?

 

Make sure to PM Fanguad. Just go to the first post in the thread, copy the information about the miniature exchange stuff, paste it into a PM with him and answer those questions.

 

Do you have a WIP thread somewhere? I'd be happy to talk to you about dioramas, vignettes, and bases over there because I've already derailed this thread enough.

PM sent to fanguard!- no WIP yet. -need to make one. got a bunch of unpainted minis and trying to figure out how to make a godzilla mini.

Isn't Uber attempting to be Fanguad's assistant? Is this the beginning of his plan to match with siri? :P

I'm sorry to say I won't be participating. While I *could* paint a mini and mail it abroad, ridiculous laws of import in my country means actually receiving a package would be quite expensive on my side as well, and perhaps even not allowed by Customs.

 

I might jump in with some little trinket and ask Fanguad to assign me half a dozen Reaperites to send them out, however. It is an idea I've toying around for some time already.

[Humansquish]

I'm in.

 

A suggestion, could we have the deadline August 29th just so we get a full 3 months of painting time after finding out our victims partners?

Won't work - part of the point of me having an assistant is that we pick each other's partner.  This is mostly to maintain the surprise, but also to prevent accusations (not that I think they would occur) of "taking the good minis for myself."

[Flamehawke]

That makes a lot of sense and would help keep things fair

[ub3r_n3rd]

Yup, I figured as much, but like to joke around that I'd cherry-pick Siri's work. In reality, I'm happy with getting things from all you fine artists. This is just another fun thing we do on the forum together and it allows us to get to see things from each other up close in person rather than through the computer screen.

 

I also just love to paint for other people.

I've never painted for someone other than my husband and a few of his players, so I'm very excited ^^

I always look forward to these exchanges. Will send a pm when im at a pc. Its a pain in the but to do if from a phone. :)

[ub3r_n3rd]

It seems that the # of participants keeps growing with every exchange. Maybe we'll hit 50 people this time!
