They look beautiful in the flesh as well, crisp as ever!

Hi Malin,

Congratz on being a finalist! I'd love to enter golden daemon, one year in the far future I might (when I get good enough!).

Love the unit, my only small crict would be I wasnt a big fan of the amount of red, thought maybe the plumes or something could of been a different colour. But overall stunning unit! How is the stay in the UK going?

Thanks for the comments guys :!:

The amount of red is the thing critisized by most people, it is not too visible on the pictures themselves, but the hair are darker than the red on the armour.

Stay in the UK is gong really well, I like it in here. If I would have a chance I would probably moved here, but there are few things holding me in Poland. I ave spent almost entire day with my sister yesterday on Games Day, so today was payback time, so I spent almost the same amount of time with her on shopping. I felt like Primark is my second home :roll: :lol: I got some presents for my miss so it wasn't wasted time :)

Cheers
Malin

A lot of people say that they would like to stay here. I love england so I dont blame them :-)

Primark though is perhaps not the best "sight" to see :-)

Have fun!

This is a very nice looking unit, beautiful.

I am a little bit confused though, you say this is your studio's entry?

I was under the impression that Golden Demon was a contest for individuals, not for teams?



Cheers,

Barry

I call it "our studio entry" because if it wasn't for the support of my sister, those models would never left Poland in the state at which they are presented on the pictures. She was very supportive and made the display base for the models which is not rated in this category.

Entrants from one more than one guy have won in the past.

Seb Perbet and a.n.other bloke from the studio won with an entry in the open competition a few years back & I think a Polish duo won a statue in the diorama competition with the 'Wittch of Praag' a couple of years ago.

Anyways it looks good, technically great, but I agree it's a bit monochrome in style, which I guess goes with your moonlit style of painting.

Doesn't mean it's ok though!

However, as you say, if it's just the base you've had help with then fair enough - good work on some beautiful models!
