Duke of Bavaria 2010 - Part 2

Aloa,

i am still a little stunned by the all the impressions of the past weekend, but i am trying to concentrate and bring up some more infos around this great weekend itself. This posting won't show a lot about the time in Ingolstadt, there will be others soon with a lot of great moments. As we had a painter's Camp at Raffa's from wednesday til monday during the Duke of Bavaria time we also finished some miniatures during the night time. I want to say big thanks to everyone who was with us and swung his brush these days, naming those great persons will be done now: Max, Sabine, Bianca, Kurt, Ben, Robert, Raffa and me. What a funny time we had i can only describe with one name: Ben Komets!!

I now will show you some of the miniatures that have been finished during these days or simply stood around to look at them while we had our nerdy Nerdcamp at Raffa's flat. Raffa was so kind to take pictures of them (also some videos, but this will be told another time):

My latest painted Huscarl won a Bronze medal in historical Master Painting, don't ask me why :)

We did paint some more miniatures but we still have to make some photos. At this point i would love to give my credits to everyone who won something, but most impressive was the fact that the number of entries increased to 900 at this years show. That is truely the biggest win of all. Oli, if you are reading this, you are totally awesome, your Fantasy Master Gold is well deserved!

So far, read you soon with Part 3 :)

Duke of Bavaria 2010 - Part 1

by Raffa

posted by Raffa, Picster, Capuchin,....

Hey everyone!

*phew* after one week of hardcore painting, staying awake too long, eating unhealthy food, driving around in a big car, gazing at superb miniatures in way too hot rooms and other nerdy stuff we finally survived the Duke of Bavaria 2010 :)

Thanks to Bianca for taking so many photos!


What a GREAT time! Everyone who wasn't there: You really missed a incredible event, be sure to come next year.
The Miniatures there were so amazing it made me speechless, it took me 4 breaks before i could finish looking through the Pegaso display.... else i would have started to cry...

Oh and not just the miniatures were amazing, everyone was so friendly to each other that every minute on the Duke was pure joy. Meeting new people and see others you haven't seen in a while is always a great thing. At this point i hope everyone got home safely and everyone else could enjoy this event the same way i did :)

We will post new pictures, videos and stuff when we'll finish/find/have it.... yeah you read right, videos :)

Stay tuned!
Raffa

Romeo Models Huscarls finished....

Still strange days... Raffa and me did finished the Romeo Models Huscarl. I also did write a Review on the model itself. You may find it here! Hope you like them!

I hope you like our two versions of this model, if so feel invited  to drop a comment on what you think. For sure also feel invited to do so if you don't like something. We are always on the hunt to improve ourselves.

I am really surprised how different the same miniature can look like. I like Raffa's more but that must be some kind of painter's paranoia. Paranoia! Paranoia! Attentione! Paranoia!

Keep on happy painting!
