I wish I could afford to attend a bootcamp.
Would love to be there! Have fun guys!!
Have a great time fellas
Awesome!
So jealous….
Need to win the lottery, then i can be at the next one 🙂
Ummm green with envy… actually I’ve gone right through the green shade catalog with any number of miniature paint manufacturer. To console myself I’m breaking open the super glue and files and will be building some of my own minis this evening.
Can I suggest, (tying this in with the Gurn of the Week) that considering the date @Warzan does’t touch any models……
Just like that noted tease, mother nature: plan to spend all weekend indoors and beautiful weather breaks out. Looks like fun and hope everything goes well.
I have to say, that looks epic – it looks like an entire city in that room!
Hope all goes well, have a great weekend 🙂
I have leave to catch a flight, I wish I could hang round to see this !
Looks great.
You guys really excelled with the preparation for this event, looking forward to more coverage over the event itself.
Still no dive on the vids on the site. I’ll watch um on the tube 🙂
Wish I could be there
*Gets some popcorn* Im ready for an evening of updates!
Everyone get there ok?
Looks amazing!
DZC isn’t a game I’ve played but it does look great, particularly on those tables, well done guys. I look forward to learning more about it.
Have a nice weekend guys.
See you on the next bootcamp 😉
