Forum Project Again!

[Chris Seeley]

Well some of us are still waiting for theirs 

[Brian]

Everyone should have the figures now, so are we all OK, we all know what we're doing 
Just remember to have fun as it's not a job, just do them as and when you can
 
Wolfgang will have to order a few more for the four that didn't the figures, and don't you forget to paint a couple of figures for the display  

[Jon P]

, Jon and John your get yours when I see you in the next few weeks.

Cheers Brian,

look forward to catching up with you.

Think we need another thread for "The Kulmbach Table Fund", anyone want to see this one through 
 
And thanks Eric and Joerg for your offers

[Joerg]

Last year I bought a handful of knights for exactly that purpose.
I will give it to Brian in Kulmbach.

I'm sure I can spare a candidate.... that's three!

[Brian]

Well theres You and Me for a start

[errant49]

I can provide a painted figure and make the display like last time
Can we find about ten people for a display ?
If we want to sell the figures it should be better paint two sides
The deadline for giving the figures should be mid-july

This is the photo I've got    [ Guests cannot view attachments ] and you had the one from the USA as well  [ Guests cannot view attachments ]
 
Do we want to do this again to help with the cost of the table this year? 

[errant49]

Brian  you forget the display we made for Kulmbach to bring money to the society
By the way are there somewherein the site some good pictures of these displays ? I can't remember
Eric

Joerg yes, I sent you the figures as I assumed you would like to be part of the project, and as a good friend hoped you didn't mind painting just two more pieces.
 
We've only had two completed projects in the last few years, first the 2007 project  [ Guests cannot view attachments ]
 
And a year later fashion through the ages project    [ Guests cannot view attachments ] these two are the only one's shown at shows.
 
Others we've done have fallen to the side or still in the process of being framed, like the  Landsquenet ( can't spell that one! ) so the idea is to try and keep you intrested and busy painting
 

[Joerg]

Today I received a lettre surprise.
Though I did not volunteer for this project I will face the challenge and paint the figures.

But this evolves a question:
Last year (or already the other year?) a collector friend proposed to paint Ancient figures and show them in a sample.
The same year Martin Sutor proposed to paint a figure - the Landsquenet and show the results in a sample.
Now we have a "Forum project" and show the results in a sample....

Will all this lead to a Society of Sample painters with ever changing time-focus?

To avoid a misunderstanding - I do not think this a bad idea, I just wonder, if this is going to be the deeper beeing in our Society......
And, I frankly confess - all my attempts to do this with my local collecting mates (when I fixed the suject) failed by now 

Regards
Joerg

I went from one side of which is painted, so two types. 
Why struggle when the connection is tightened around it with a picture frame!

So! Pick out the most beautiful figures page and bring it forward.

[Brian]

does that mean I will have to  be nice to you and talk to you to get my flat.

One side sounds good gives me a better chance of finishing it.

Yep! 
 
You still get to paint two sides as theres two figures to do
