IP8 round 1

[Peterdita]

Am I crazy, or reading my calendar wrong? I have March 4th as a Sunday and March 5th as Monday.

You are correct. (OP updated. )

[Demonn Agram]

just a suggestion, but could the mods remove the threads IP 7 FINAL Matchup and Theme! and IP 7 round 4 RESULTS!! from the sticky part (since everything else concerning IP7 isn't sticky anymore) and place them in the normal threads, so as not to confuse the participants of IP8, so that just the rules and threads concerning IP8 are sticky...

thanks..

and so the smack time begins... in round 2. RealGenius, Abhorsen - sorry, not gonna waste my smacking potential already. but, I do wait to see what you come up with guys good luck.

great theme, Pete. good to know you have someone to help you with that.

[Darklord]

Excellent. That's what I thought; but I figured I'd better be certain, since being wrong would have meant trying to submit an entry a day after the deadline.

I didn't think you were a slave to deadlines!! (or was that Cardiss?)

[Hjelmen]

'eeere we go! Interesting theme!

[Prophaniti]

Ah I thought I recognised the username Hjelmen. (PP)

Interesting theme indeed. I'm going to have to find something to paint now....

[Lono]

Being inspired by the theme 'Start your engine' and placing an order for a mini of a running boy with barely any clothes on, and still being fully confident I'll nail the theme...

I guess that shows I'm either in the right frame of mind for this challenge or totally insane! :D

[Arlaharen]

Idea all set. Miniature already in my possession. Second round here I come!

Second round? I hope you're in a bar because that's the only way your post would make sense. Though I can't blame you for needing a little somethin' somethin' to steady the nerves now that you know who you're up against.

[Nixon]

Damn this is going to be interesting, cant wait to see what people will come up with. Im very exited.

To be honest I was initially relieved to not see certain names next to mine, but then I face palmed when I saw the theme. "Engines" is not a theme I really deal with, I hate tanks and painting metal is ugh. HOWEVER, I actually think my pieces through, and I've put a nice simple twist on it, based on miniatures I have (though a purchase is required) so sadly you won't see me break down in tears saying it all ended too soon...

I'm just getting started

*jack* and Volgore, may the best painter win =]
