Those elves are quite stunning.  I like the shield highlighting and the insignias - did you use a brush for those?  - Good strong color choices

I'm still trying to clear my head from the victory celebration.  It may be best to slowly taper down instead of quitting cold turkey. 

@ warzoneD: Thanks for the kind words!  The lotus insignia was indeed hand-painted with a brush, and definitely the most challenging part for me.  I've got a long way to go in the freehand department.

@ Glenn M:  Though your generous offer is greatly appreciated, I'd like to bow out of any prize receiving.  I was just happy to still be standing among such talented participants.

This was a blast to be a part of, and again thanks to Veez for doing this and getting me to actually complete some guys.  Minis completed since this contest = 0.

So I'm definitely in if there is a warzone/chronopia/terrain contest in the future.

Well done, all, well done.
If sing, sang, and sung, sink, sank, and sunk, and drink, drank, and drunk, how is it that it isn't bring, brang, and brung, think, thank and thunk, and ding, dang, and dung?

Don't even get me started about bad, badder and baddest.  Run, ran AND run...again?  C'mon!

I thank you for having the contest. The miniature was a lot of fun to paint. I also think everyone else did a great job with their entries. I hope to see some good competition next time as well! :)

Great job everyone!

I like these little contests, they're great for motivating me to paint more. Since I have all the armies I need for both Chrono and WZ I just paint single minis for fun now.
