Sophie Builds a Snowman...Iron Painter Round 1 Entry

Posted by paintminion on Wednesday, October 24, 2007 8:50 PM

Iron painter is a one on one contest of modeling skills...two painters enter, one painter leaves...on the Wyrd Miniatures website. This round's theme was "Death of Winter" and we were given two weeks to model, paint, and upload pictures. Although I received the second highest score in the round, my opponent received the top score. Tough luck on the match up there! So she's off to auction, and I'm left crying in my Woodland Scenics snow...but here she is to enjoy!

Around Reaper, that's called the "klockenbooty" after the sculptor Werner Klocke. ;-)

I love those Reaper figures, but my figure painter wife loves them even more and they form the majority of her stash.

She does have some Sophie's in her collection and seing your fine build has convinced me to encourage her to build one of them!

Cheers

Mike
