I keep coming back to this thread like a lost dog searching for its old master. It was a thread which brought so much fun and humor to all who came here. It was never obscene or lewd, and the pictures I recall got far more pan's than praise. Ah well, perhaps the complainers can now open a new thread dedicated to the depiction of bloody, brutalized human beings blown apart and dying in pain and agony, which they seem to be far less phobic about than sex. |

"the depiction of bloody, brutalized human beings blown apart and dying in pain and agony" Dear G-d, what minis are you using? |

I use zombie figures as casualties for games where civilians get killed. They aren't actually being blown apart but have been blown apart. |

Otto, I always thought you hated this board. Didn't you complain about almost all the minis that were posted here? |

Otto often criticised the figures(as did I). I don't recall him complaining about them. There's a difference. |

I criticized the figures, never the board. Several figures always gained my positive attentions "Belle", the Cop that looked a little like Lucille Ball, many others. Those that depicted the female form with realism and an admiration and tribute. A critic cares about that which he criticizes, otherwise he would say nothing because he doesn't give a [moderately strong phrase beginning with a "d" and meaning perdition."] |

lol nah not buying it. I would hardly call your comments 'artistic critiques'. I think you miss playing with your toy . . . |

I haven't had a chance for a good rant (or even a snark) for a good while now. Lawzie me, I miss the good old days. |

This board in particular showcased some amazing painting. Blending, layering and contrasts, which I appreciate. That the subjects were sometimes scantily clad made no difference really. |

+1 John the >. My creative juices have no where to ooze since the pulchritudinous petal-less petunias have stopped blossoming on our board. It's as if the depleted bee population had a sudden and cataclysmic cumulative effect on our charming garden here. |

Otto often talks rubbish in my not so humble opinion but every now and then he speaks the truth This board and the puritanical nature of what has happened is one of them. A sad decision and a sad reflection on TMP |
