Yes, I do. It is such a nice country. I really enjoyed this semester. I got a lot of friends, I saw several amazinh place, I was on a lot of event.

Funny story for the end. I was ready to go, I packed my bags (3 bags= 60 kg), and I went to the airport by train. I want to check in, and they say me, Im at the wrong airport! So I traveled across Brussel to get to Chareilot Ariport, and I just missed my plan with 20 minutes.
Belgium didnt let me away that easy...

Very nice dwarf king there Kevin. I would shade the scale mail a bit more, but other than that it's looking great.

Great job so far Kevin, it looks really good.

@Bastion - well that Gimli is a damn sight better than any of my first painted minis.

Then lets find a friend, who has a camera, and take some pictures next to sunshine. You still have time to do this.

Wishing I could even start on mine...... :(
Had gimli's axe break, then lost the part that broke off as I was pinning it. (I swept some random bits of junk into the garbage, and my axe piece! :o ) So I decided to make it into a throwing axe. The problem being I'm out of super glue, so I can't pin the axe head on. :roll: Oh well. I guess I'll get something done for one of these competitions yet..... :x

nice entries here, gonna win this one will be tough! :o I wish all of you best luck! :D

Btw: how many time do I've got left? Does it end at the end of the month or earlier/later?
I just need to finish the base and re-do some parts which I've accidently painted with the wrong colour.. :oops:
