Ok today is the day, but what is even more important is that Mr. Ben Komets had birthday yesterday - Happy Birthday to you my friend - he went 30 ages and i am really intrested if he did change because of this number... this is the big question i am asking myself all the time... damn, i got to see my loved Apes again... it always takes too long to meet eachother... Happy Birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday Mr. Komets, happy birthday to yooooooouuuuuuu!
And Happy Birthday to MASSIVE VOODOO - today... yeah, bouncing and dancing strippers in banana costumes, coconut rain from the skies and massive bongo beats pumping through your soul... Happy Birthday to the MASSIVE VOODOO CREW and the jungle they inhabit... Only one year and the jungle became really massive - no idea what happens next, haha - Coconut rain?

After i am really busy this weekend and the next days i can't exactly tell you already how everything will work out in here, about the Birthday Surprise Box (you can still take part until todays midnight), showing all the great workbenches later on, telling you the winner, doing this and that... but what i can tell is that i am still packing the Surprise Box and won't be finished until Wednesday i guess, because i got to wait til some parcels arrive to fill it even more... thanks to everyone for this great support, especially Sockelmacher.de, Jester-Miniatures, Ammon Miniatures and your Voodoo Crew. So it will take a moment or two and i would propose i just keep you informed about everything step by step... no need for coconut rain inside all our brains...
Happy Birthday, Painting Jungle of too much colour! Thanks for your warm time you give me to make easy, relaxed happy painting time all day long! And Music!!
So far,
Best Regards
Roman and the Ape-Crew
PS: Yesterday i have failed to make good photos of a planned tutorial which i already announced and failed to finsih it. Oh dear, i love such days... there has to be another project for explaining exactly these thoughts... sorry :)
Happy birthday Massive-Voodoo! Congratulations for a fantastic homepage, where all apes have the possibility to find the current Jungle news. So I wish all the best and a lot of bananas to Kong and his ape-crew.

HAPPY BANANA BIRTHDAY!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to the Jungle!
ReplyDeleteWow that's a big banana! And Fallout 3 FTW.
Worst post, eh? Well, I still gotta side against suggesting to use Acetone as a paint stripper.
Buuut, I don't want to be a downer on such an awesome day!
I gotta say that the Bat Orc bust is one of my favorites, followed very closely by Banana Shark :) Pain is also very emotional, though I enjoyed seeing the detail and steps put into USMC Iwo Jima and how you seemed to get personally involved in it as well.
Your english has been pretty good :) Grammar gets a little touchy at times, but not too bad.
For me, miniature painting used to be a way to make my troops look good on the field. As I stopped playing as often I still loved to paint any and everything that I could try, to see what I could create, rather than just stuff for the battlefield. I've come to realize you guys really say it all - paint for yourself.
Happy Birthday Jungle-Crew!! :D
ReplyDeleteI follow this blog from the beginning, checking this site as ofeten as possible,you gave me a lot of inspiration and great ideas wich had a lot of influence in my todays painting style
Thank you for one year of sharing your ideas, creativity,expierience and the joy of painting.
I hope you will continue this way for at least the next 100 years
ps:Hope theres a banana cake on the Jungleparty :P
Julian aka Ork-Schlampe

- What was your favourite post on Massive Voodoo so far?

- Where did you find the most horrible english written?
None of it is bad enough to take notice

Miniature painting is not only an expression of my soul but an amazing way to meet and communicate with fantastic artists and hobbyists around the world!
- What is the worst article in the article section?
Haven't found it yet - but I'm still reading so I guess there's a chance right?

ReplyDelete- What was your favourite post on Massive Voodoo so far?
That's a tough one. I don't really have a favorite post, but I do have a favorite series of posts, which is the Captain Maulg series. I'm really excited about it, and I can't wait to see more of it. But there's so much great stuff going on always in the jungle.
- Where did you find the most horrible english written?
I can't decide. There are just so many choices! :P
- Which of the Apes do you like most?
Whichever ape has posted something most recently. ;)
- Which of the Apes you want to wear sunglasses from now on?
Hah, I don't even know what most of you look like! I just know you from your miniatures.
- In which posting on this blog did you find a new favourite song?
I prefer the posts that let me ogle minis. :)
- Which miniature do you like most, posted in here?
I mentioned Captain Maulg already. Apart from that, I couldn't name just one, but high up on the list would be Butterfly, Soul Guardian, Lord Mazdamundi, and The Last Survivor. And I suspect that I'll be adding Raffa's sewer duel as soon as it's finished.
- What means Miniature Painting to you?
Oh, that's a big one. A constant struggle, but also a constant source of joy. Every miniature is a chance to learn something, and hopefully to bring a little more beauty into the world.
- What is the worst article in the article section?
The one that hasn't been written yet. It's really not very helpful at present, so you should probably write it...
- Would you call yourself someone who never posts comments or either someone who is totally in it?
I post a lot of comments. *grin*
- Do you still use more time painting then reading in the jungle?
Absolutely, but it's summer right now. I fear my painting time will evaporate once classes start. :(
- Do you enjoy the good life with a happy heart?
I try.
- Is there a big banana photo hidden in 2010 January's last posting?
Well, I wouldn't exactly call it 'hidden'...
- I am just kidding... or maybe not :)
That's not a question.
Happy Birthdayyy my fellow Monkey Nation!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to you. It's kinda extra special, because my birthday was on the 17th.

Destination Calabria ;)

I write a lot, so first cathegory
- Do you still use more time painting then reading in the jungle?
I think yes, but sometimes I'm not so sure...
- Do you enjoy the good life with a happy heart?
Not always, but always, when I read here :)

Not sure, might be a Banana gun too^^
