It might
have been while chatting to Michael at Stresa, or maybe on Facebook afterwards,
but at some point I agreed to do a short write-up of Figureworld, so I thought
I’d start with a little bit of history. The original idea was started by
a group of us from the “Basement” forum (now closed), to hold a social
modellers event for figure painters where they could see completed work,
discuss ideas, show work in progress, watch demos, get feedback and maybe even
buy a nice new figure or six. The first event was held in 2010 and it
moved to its current location Oundle in 2011 and has stayed there since.
So only a
couple of days after returning from the World Expo at Stresa I was driving
across England with a car boot full of figures for display and all the tools
needed for a bit of demo painting. Arriving on the Friday lets us get
started with some of the set-up like checking the display and traders tables are
in place. Some of traders even arrive a day early as well all of which
means that a nice social evening can be had at the local pub discussing the
hobby or just catching up with each other, even better they serve a very nice
cider.
And this year we got to see a wonderful display of lightning as
thunderstorms rolled across the country to the South.
Then it’s
an early start to Saturday, sorting the wet palette and lighting for the demo
painting and taking pictures of the hall as the traders arrive and taking an
early stint on door duty although at this time it’s mostly traders and the show
hasn’t officially opened yet, the few punters that do arrive being more than
happy to check about car parking and walk the short distance to the town centre
to get some breakfast. So a bit before 10:30 I manage to get some
breakfast myself (Where did the last 3 hours go … ), take a few more pictures
as figures start to appear on the display area and then settle down for some
demo painting which is in a smaller side hall where the visitors can rest their
feet and have a get some refreshments.
For me much
of the day was taken up with demo painting and taking pictures. A couple
of oil painters who have started with acrylics were interested in the blending
options, another asked about the wet palette and I think in another year or so
I will actually have finished the Greek hoplite bust I use and have to find
another demo piece.
Taking
pictures gave an opportunity to stop by the trade stalls to pick up a few
pieces I’d planned to get and a few more I hadn’t. Bases, historical,
fantasy, paints, brushes, tools and books; something to tempt even the most
battered wallet and this year Gideon Miniatures had some anime garage kits,
couldn’t pass that up!
I also managed to taunt James with Talullah Belle
again, whatever he says it’s his fault for asking if it was for sale last year
and any opportunity to wave the figure under his nose is just too good to pass
up.
A couple of
hours later it all seems to have gone quite well, there was lots of stuff to
look at on the displays and both visitors and traders seemed happy.
So
after packing everything away it’s time for another relaxing evening with
Adrian, Mark, Nick, Robert, Robin, Kev, t’other Kev, Martyn and Ross.
It’s a funny old hobby at times and putting on this show is a lot of work, but
the feedback makes it worth it, so thanks to all that attended for the support
and the kind words.
