Convention guests
 

I see that the forum has been as bit slow as everyone is at the convention. I am posting this for those of use who cannot be there, as I am sure there must be others. Man, do I wish I could have made it. Best wishes to all who are there! drl$$ thmbsp$ :chr:

Those at the convention will probably already know about the special guests, but for the rest of us, here is a hint of what we are missing.

Dewayne Jennings arranged for some former Ohio State stars to be in attendance at the convention. All three played in the NFL. Dewayne asked me to make some custom figures of them.

These are custom poses made from Dewayne's Electric Gridiron figures. They are:

• Roger Harper in his Cowboys away jersey. He was a Safety fort both the Falcons and the Cowboys in the Mid 90's.
• Garcia Lane of the KC Chiefs, who was a kick returner during the mid 80's.
• The last one you all probably know, Dominik Hixon of the Giants. He has been a WR/KR for the past few years, including Super Bowl XLII.

Names, numbers and logos were decals, and the rest painted. I hope I made the real players proud of their miniature football selves.

WOW!!!
 

With Dewayne Jennings figures and this type of painitng, we certainly have evolved to a new level.

I noticed the slow down in posting on the forum too, which I am sure is due to those who are attending the convention. I wasn't able to go as well. Just looking forward to all the great convention postings and stories when everyone returns.

WOW drl$$ drl$$ drl$$ drl$$ drl$$

Anyone know if they are going to be broadcasting any of the games on UStream or anything like that? or doing a play by play online?

Gridiron painter, your figs are great. Difficult to evaluate the real scale of them, on the pics : wich is a sign of high quality painting IMHO ppls$


Speaking of the convention, it should be great to see vids, pics and live stuff, for sure thmbsp$

Those look great!ltsplbll

WOW!!!!
 

If those weren't on a base, I would almost guess they were 10 inches tall...beautiful as always!

Exactly ! Hat off, G.P !

I think for our next figure contest, we will go to 3 classes.
Traditional style-no shading or highlights...like Guttmann's style for instance
Enhanced style-Fields, Jeff, Dimitri and Gridiron for examples
No Decals style-Ravenna Al for example

Any other ideas?
