OK, so I met GeOrc

Post by Dark Alliance »

Guys this dude is awesome.

Although he has not yet had time to finish the "Gary Elf" as he is such a perfectionist, he did bring some of his past Golden Daemon winning entries.

Quite simply the figures this guy produces are stunning, and seeing them in the flesh sends a tingle down your spine. I actually held that wonderful standard bearer he sculpted/converted which got him a silver in France and the Beastman hero standing on a rock.

I was also allowed a sneak preview of his entry for the German GD this coming weekend. I want that figure!!

Never doubt the painting ability of this man...

He's the DE godfather !cool! no doubt. Sounds like a top bloke. Did he pass on any tips you'd care to share?

Never have, never will. ;)

I probably couldn't bring myself to touch a model that good for fear of dropping the thing!

I can't wait to see it live :twisted: Yes I'll be there :!: I was 3 years ago when He won gold in WHB unit od "Furies" and it was stunning.

Also I hope that's not 'monster' entry :oops: My painting skill is IMO far not that high as Georc and many other painters and I have lack of time, but I want to try myself. My entry is nowhere else seen <by me> dark elf project so maybe You will see photos of this idea ;)

unfortunatly I wasn´t able to get a trophy. After six years of succesful contests, this was the first time without a winning entry ;) But I´m very pleased with my work and I think it´s my best so far. I think it was bad luck, but take a look yourself to these sneak pics, my own pics will come this evening:

That was able to lose to something? Either they did indeed pay someone, or they are God.

Not to idly pile on the accolades, but that's beautiful work. The competition in Germany must be especially fierce, there's nothing on the GW website from the Toronto GD that holds a candle to that mini.

Wow the model has come along great since the greens I saw on the thread a few months ago. Stopped following and now I see the finished (or almost) product and wow!

Shame GeOrC, that you didn't win.
I can see why though.
Not because of your painting (I must admit at this laptop I can't see the details that well) but there are a lot of elaborate entries (the winner, but also the banners and the titan).

I must say, that the concepts are nice at this GD.
Special LoL at the trolls.
Never know what to do next, you might surprise yourself

At least, if I'm seeing this right, Dark Elf entry won the Slayer Sword and that's how it should be ;)
