I'm liking all the pictures that are going up in this resurgence of this thread - we normally only get an occasional pic and then nothing for weeks/months. Keep them coming 😁

There's some talent out there amongst the Squaxx.

(I wish the figure thread would get more than just me posting - it's not my thread 😁)

Thanks guys coming late to the original pages scene (unlike yourselves) I was wary splashing a chunk of cash but I'm glad I did.

Quote from: GoGilesGo on 04 June, 2024, 11:13:05 AMWow, those are amazing, Trooper.

particularly love the very subtle turquoise pencil Simon uses for Dante.

I don't think anyone is disappointed at any sketches the art droids produced
The only disappointment is missing somebody or too far down the list and missing out on a sketch 😫

This is the 1st year I didn't get a Dredd head !

I think the turquoise pencil is the base outline Simon does before filling in the details - I watched from the side and it always amazes me how it all comes together in a fast period.

I don't know if the art droids mind us Squaxx watch or if they are under pressure as I hate people standing over me at my work.
Trust me from this fan boy I'm in awe every time

I think you left your white marker pen at PJ's table. He was raving about how nice it was for doodles - including the Dredd profile he did inside Cold Wars for me

Yep I know 😫 but I've got another one 😁

Le Fink I think I'd done Max a couple of years back - converting a "Riddler" model kit

Apart from the sketches i got a Lawless this year I popped my original page cherry on a page from Simon Fraser.

This is from Dante and the Hellfire story - Living so close to and loving the city of Edinburgh I was thrilled to get the page of spaceships flying over Calton Hill and Princes street, as well as a wee bit of the Forth bridge.

I don't know if I'll be buying many pages as my wall space is very limited but this is going up.

well I finally sorted the photos out wasn't sure if I should have posted these on the Lawless thread - but they are figures and they have their own thread.

I dragged these little creations around on the Saturday morning to say hi to their creators (writers and Artists) Thanks to all the creators fo obliging me and signing some awkward shaped items. Hopefully I'll match more models with creators next year.

Quote from: stacey on 28 May, 2024, 10:25:54 AMLovely to see you again Giles! I promise I'll try and post more!

If anyone missed the Judge Death or Writers panels, I've stuck them up on my YouTube channel.

Was Wendy in the Gronk suit? Amazing!!!

What a fab weekend!
Yes that was my wife dragged along- she was nervous as hell thinking it wasn't up to the usual high standards of the other cosplayers - I told her anything cuddly would be a hit.



She was bloody amazing, as were you!
Thanks I'll pass on that she was loved 😁

Quote from: Colin YNWA on 28 May, 2024, 11:01:01 AMOh Barrington it was thr Dredd I saw Boo Cook finishing when I saw him. Very pleased this one was for you as its an absolute delight! I will get that Tharg one day.

And Le Fink and Marbles I wonder what I did to make Chimpsky so pensive! Love the range of expressions across those three.
What I've seen from the Chimpsky heads from PJ that everyone has posted is that each is different! I don't know if everyone asked for a particular expression of if the fabulous PJ just draws as he sees fit?
