I was just going to make a commentary in the Iron Painters gallery, but I think I must have spent too long typing it because I went to post it and my post it disapeared. Oh well, we'll put it here instead.
I want to thank the judges for their imput. The effect I was going for on the dress was chromey/shimmery metalic and it sounds like I succedded in that even though it wasnt what was expected. As for the commentary on the lack of basing, I agree entirely, I was being lazy. This is another piece for the witches coven diorama and I really didnt want to do up yet another base that I was just going to pull the mini off and totaly redo of in two months.
As I was in a hurry when I put the final pics up for the Iron Painter gallery I didnt actually get a chance to properly tweak the color and brightness adjustments. I have since gone back and done that.
I hope you guys all enjoyed the competition. I know I found it great fun and quite inspiring.
