So it seems I can just start building my prisoner right away.

Or should I wait to see who I'll be sending to and check their preferences?

You could wait... but you do NOT have to sent what the person assigned to you would prefer. Be creative... if they want Orks, send them an Eldar! Make friends and influence people!

sounds great i've already finished the mini and am looking forward to giving it to someone

still waiting for the bitz to arrive so I can do my prisoner.

hoping it will get here soon....

Cheers

edward: You have NOT responded to my PM yet... but by your comment...

werd im waiting on paint of all things grrrr!!!!

I am a little behind due to issues at work (Governor Patterson is being a pain) and in my side practice (I have about three times the normal political web work I normally do in a midterm election year - lots of insurgent candidates) so I admit, I have only primed my guy. I don't expect to get much done this week either (Jewish holiday in the middle of the week) but G-d willing I will sit down and paint him up on Sunday assuming no other emergencies fall in my lap.

Consider my project under way then.

The list for the Prisoner Exchange is ready! Before I send the assignments I need PLEASE ONLY BY PRIVATE MESSAGE (PM) either your name and mailing address (EXACTLY as required by your local post) or a note indicating that you prefer to be contacted. In no particular order...

• Kiwi
  
• moggd
  
• DeafNala
  
• 02Laney
  
• MathiasDark
  
• Da Bank
  
• Dozer
  
• edward (please make sure is EXACTLY as required by the postal service!)
  
• Skraag

You MAY have received a PM about this... tried to do a mass PM. Thanks!

Mord: I believe I PMed mine the other day.

OK. Everyone has been sent a PM regarding to who they have been assigned to sent their prisoner!

If anyone do NOT know who are they supposed to send their Prisoner, check you "Private Messages"... the 7th button on the top bar (conveniently named labeled PM), left of the "Log Out" button!

Thank you everyone for participating on this Event! Remember to take pictures (if you can) of your Prisoner before shipping him this weekend (best you can) and wait in anticipation for the arrival of the new addition.

Feel free to start a NEW thread about your Prisoner on the Painting & Modeling to showcase your model's WiP and Final pictures! Please make the thread topic:

Code:

Prisoner Exchange: {Piece Name} by {Your Alias}

You may (or not) reveal who you are sending the Prisoner to... but I rather the recipient to post his comments and reactions when he receives it.

Well I'm guilty of not shipping too.
I'm so nearly finished. I'd been planning on getting him done before the weekend but a couple of days illness put rest to that. Anywho... I've done a bit more tonight and I'm really getting there. All I need to do is sort out the actual base of the model, it's now 2:30 am so unfortunately it looks like I won't be posting until monday morning.
I hope the receiver can forgive me. I'll try to find something to sweeten the deal

Putting mine in the mail right now.

This was a lot of fun... we should do it again Xmas time. That we have a summer and a winter contest.

Typically I was early sending off my Little Horrors...the Mystery Victim should have them by now AND has my condolences.

Oh, come on DeafNala!
Any of your models - even the one you consider your worst - would still be more than awesome!

Thanks...Everyone's conversions & painting in the WIP were JUST SO IMPRESSIVE that a couple of fairly straight paint jobs might seem rather tame by comparison.

If we kicked off something now-ish, we could have a whole "Christmas in July" theme going... get everything planned and modeled over the summer, painted in the fall, and posted by November. Everyone could have their "Prisoner" by Christmas. Heck, make the holidays part of the theme!

Slaaneeshi Claus, Hanukkah Marines, Thanksgiving Squigs, evil looking cybercherubs with banner that read "Happy New Year 999.M41."

@Librarian: Please take any of my self deprecating remarks as facetious statements that were meant as a lame form of humor...mostly .
The MOST USEFUL thing I learned about painting came from the VERY WORST painter I ever met. Wayne reached the ABSOLUTE heights of mediocrity with pieces SO HORRENDOUSLY AWFUL that they had a surrealistic quality about them...we were all convinced he had a stygmatism. HOWEVER, Wayne LOVED his stuff; this is an attitude I've tried to develop about my own work with varying degrees of success. The point is not to judge my work by what others can do or what they may think about my stuff, but to appreciate the pieces as examples of the best I can do.
Being philosophical I believe is YET ANOTHER sign of imminent senility.

I got my prisoner today! Sent from Way-of-the-Warrior, all the way from the UK. It's a sweet looking model I know he really worked hard on. I'll get some pictures up as soon as I stop dieing from heat stroke.

Thanks WotW! Looks great.

im glad you like it

all the best way-of-the-warrior

I got my prisoner from Von Hagel. What a cool model. Good work on the NMM it looks so much better than in the photos. I will try to get photos up.

This tutorial WILL help you.
