Arrived yesterday so too little time to enter. Damn.
Meh, prime it and base it. You'll probably score better than the heap I've got right now.

Damn! I really need to keep myself up to date with these competitions, love the mini! But buying it just because is a bit of a bad reason for me at the moment. :/

Woot!!! Got it all finished! No pictures yet. Sorry, tomorrow for sure, right?!?! Gotta wait for the water effects to dry.
Very happy with the way the Cola War came out! Harrowing at times, and I wanted to throw the damn thing through the window on Wednesday, but I'm so excited to show it off! And I'd post pictures tonight, but again, water effects need to set.

Had a lot of trouble gluing this mini so no time to paint it. Pity, really wanted to enter this comp.
You still have several hours left. Like mad.

Yeah, it was a bit of a bother. I'd already painted mine when I went to the glue. OMG! Had to bend her to her left a bit to make the leg fit better. Tried reaming out the socked some more, but that didn't help greatly either. Managed something, but have a small gap that doesn't quite look out of place.
Now I'm a bit paranoid. Need to go check her elbow for rubbed off paint. Okay, it's still good!

Well just got mine in, photos aren't too good but then neither is my entry. Still, I'm fairly happy with what I managed in two and a half interrupted hours. Good luck everybody - I'm just here to make up the numbers (as usual).
Fairly happy with how it turned out. Got me motivated, so I'm ready to go to the other poor unpainted still on the desk.
