*pines for glory days of Sir Peter Wells Chopper entry*

Honestly, I don't know...

I've considered entering, but I do 3D as a profession and also promo stuff for Planet Replicas, as well as having photos used for reference for actual covers - so whether that disqualifies me or not, I couldn't say...

It just seems an odd beast as a compo now.

The Kid who would be King - had some cinema vouchers to use up, and also a cold - so thought I'd give it a whirl.

Pretty good although the main villain's whispering schtick got old fairly quick.

A few really well done set pieces, and had a kind of charm which reminded me a little of Joe Dante's Explorers.

Don't know - was mentioned on fb that the cost of the hall had doubled at the Armouries, so unless there's been a renegotiation/change of heart...

Um

From TB's twitter feed

"For anyone considering booking their Thought Bubble hotel now for this year please hold off until we make further announcements. I'll be posting more info next week"

Cheers, one we've got the finished cloak and it all painted up it should look pretty imposing.

Cheers,

Yeah, I dunno - with all the stuff on social media with KKK in school yearbooks, I'm not sure what the hotel might make of having someone in robes and a pointy hat wandering about.

It's mainly for a photoshoot I want to do, a lot simpler to keep things in context...

Cheers, needs a lot of details, getting a new robe made up (this one is Steve S's one for Deadlock) with an embroidered Tau symbol.

Also going to make up his illuminated staff/belisha beacon for the whole Terror Tube era Torque.

Cheers,

just for a photoshoot - can't really see it going down too well at conventions these days, and having complicated conversations about the origin of the character rather than people who don't know the character just seeing KKK.

Test fitting for a Torquemada costume.

Probably going to reprint the helmet, and will need some detailing + new hoodless robe...

Coming along though.

Great!

Imagine Space Spinner will get some crossover too anyway, as this one is concentrating on Dredd casefiles.

BTW there was apparently some sort of focus group/survey thing a couple of weeks back about doing a range of figures...

Not a subscriber so didn't get the e-mail.

Not sure it's a big enough market for that sort of thing, but interesting to see if it flies.

[spoiler]Yes, but it's also the alter-ego of Dredd uber fan Stewart Perkins who passed away a few years ago, so it's a lovely nod to Stewart who that he's a candidate for the top spot[/spoiler]

Just saw a preview of this - loved it.

Had some real goosebump moments of flashback to watching L&H on TV as a kid - the leads are great, but also Shirley Henderson and Nina Arianda as their wives and Rufus Jones as Delfont.

I'm a bit of a sucker for biopics but this really hit a sweet spot for me, and made me want to see more of Rob 'em Good...

It would be great to see CF back on the forum.

I hope it's nothing bad that keeps him away.

Nowt to worry about - think he just decided he didn't enjoy this place anymore and he's active and well on Facebook.

Yeah he's fine, what Colin said.
