I get that same feeling every time I go.

Sucks.

I just learned something interesting about my wifes wire sculpture entries; turns out she won a Merit for ALL the entries she put in Original sculpt, according to the Wonderfest website. She saw that there was a blue dot on one of her entry sheets and a Merit there, so we assumed that she only got t...

I received the Killer Kaiju and a Silver award for my Godzilla 1991 diorama I took bronzes for my Godzilla vs Ebirah, Swimming Godzilla, and My Gorgo I felt that you got robbed on the swimming Godzilla. The air bubble effects were excellent on that. Should have been a Silver. But well deserved on t...

And you always could sling some paint, Nic.

Congrats!

Thanks, Dave.

Yep, the new wife is quite an artist in her own right. I'm trying to get her to start sculpting some things in Super Sculpey, so she can some serious winning. I know she can do it!

I got: "Best Girlie Girl" at the NRA for my Olesya bust. Gold for my Spring bust in Sci-Fi & Fantasy Silver for my Stella in Sci-Fi & Fantasy Silver for my Mermaid in Sci-Fi & Fantasy Bronze for my Lagertha, Shield Maiden in Sci-Fi & Fantasy Bronze for my Bubo from Clash o...

I received a Bronze for a buildup I did of a super deform John Marsten in "Humor and Super Deform" I received a Silver for my Venom in Super Heros and Super Villians. I received a Gold for my Power Girl in Super Heros and Super Villians. I received a Gold for my Blackheart Alien Head in S...

Love the Caracalillo bust - wish I'd picked one up! I also saw all the wire sculptures your wife did and the Godzilla piece blew me away! As for me, I took two pieces this year. The Pegasus Spinosaurus garnered a Bronze. http://i1193.photobucket.com/albums/aa353/Veedubb67/WonderFest%202015/Dino12_z...

I don't see it as patting your own back, but I was wondering how many CH members got an award and what was it for? I got a Bronze for my Caracalillo from the Blackheart/Badger class. Not bad for a 5+ hour paint job. :D https://c1.staticflickr.com/9/8834/18271526789_65dc71bd13_z.jpg Caracalillo 1 by ...

I know the young lady of which you speak. She was sitting right next to me in the class (and as it turns out, is a friend of Rob from MMR) It was indeed her first time painting. Her husband was taking the sculpting class, so she took the paint class. She did very well. Heck, they all did very well....

Sunday night at the wrap up dinner, I met a young lady who had taken the class. It was her first time coming to Wonderfest, and her first time to paint, according to her. She entered it in the contest and got a Silver! It was very impressive. The wife and I took the Blackheart/Badger class. We also ...

I haven't posted what all the wife and I bought (too long a list to remember; need to unpack it all), but I do remember what I wasn't able to get for one reason or another. Mark Warthling's (Don't remember company name) HUGE Hellboy bust : Got in on the early bird and was walking around and saw this...

I won't be able to post any pictures till Wednesday when I'm at work, but I see some have started.

Wait till later this week; you'll be tired of them!

Got in this afternoon (after a stop by the Louisville toy museum) and am setting up in the room chomping at the bit. Passed Filmy coming out of the elevator. Recognized a few dealers too.

Let the games begin! !

Well, like Willie, I'm on the road again. Breaking up the trip into one long day and a short day; roughly 17 hours one way.

Be seeing you guys there. Be sure to pick up a CH badge from Filmy's table!

Love the New World Robot. I was always a fan of Creepy and Eerie magazine; guess it's the weirdo in me.
What is the size of that one?

I have a slight glimmer of hope at having something. I made some good progress on one kit last night. Fingers crossed! I got one kit back from a customer that I touched up that I'll be entering. I brought one to the office to work on today, since I knew it was going to be slow, but realized it isn'...

Since last year when they didn't have Certificate of Merits, and this year they're bringing them back, can I bring an entry from last year if it didn't win anything? Just figured (no pun intended) if I'm paying for 2 entries and you get so many more for free, maybe I'd try one more time, if there's ...
