We Have a Winner!

It’s official, I can now be labeled a “Mr. Fancy Pants”. That’s because this weekend I won The Draconic Awards, Captain Con 2015 Best of Show trophy. Booyah baby! Thanks to everyone over at Wargamers Consortium for putting this event together. Up until the last moments before the announcement I didn’t expect such a fantastic result. It was a great experience and one that I look forward to doing again.

Would you like to enter a painting competition? The Draconic Awards is the place to go. The organizers are super cool, talented people and provide great feedback. And furthermore, those medals and trophy are bad ass!
I had a great time at CaptainCon. The organizers were able to do a lot with the space including a demo section, tournaments, role playing games and a board game room. It was a chill convention in a nice venue and I’m really looking forward to the next time. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have some painting to do.

  1. Congrats! Did you just use brushes for the model or also an airbrush? The transitions are really smooth! I also like that Confrontation miniatures are still a thing amongst painters.

    • Thanks D&G! I didn’t use any airbrush on these. Call me a traditionalist but I prefer paintbrush. Perhaps in a few years, once I get more practice, I’ll have a different opinion. Also, the other models aren’t from Confrontation. They’re actually a Warpwolf Stalker and Grissel Bloodsong by Privateer Press. You should enter the awards next time they’re near you. It’s a great experience.

      • I stand corrected and now need to have a look at PP other offerings. They look very similar to the old Devourer de Vile Tis.

      • Yes they do! Also take a look at Wrath of Kings by Cool Mini or Not. They have a very beautiful line of werewolf models within the Goritsi faction. I highly recommend them for the lycanthrope lover in all of us. 🙂
