Well done for mentioning the inportant clarification that those evils were by people claiming to be Christians. Big difference! It is a sad fact of humanity that good things will always be corrupted by evil people. Good job that God knows all things and will judge everyone justly.
Bavk to painting!!! |

Well, I want to testify spubbbba's awesome talents: I got my Hellfish painted (see my team pictures for the actual pics) and they look AWESOME (so much better than you would think seeing the pictures).
They are beautiful.
All hail Lord Spubbbba |

Damn, I missed Darkwolf making a fool of himself - I should stop by this forum more often!
(Oh, and nice painting, spubbbba. However, to avoid flaming I will avoid comparing you to any other artist, past or contemporary.)
(Or future.)
(Oh, and even that 'nice' might be stepping on toes, so I will just limit myself to the observation that you have painted something.)
(Well, let's go with 'daubed something with a range of colours'.)
(Hmm, this ethical art criticism is tough. ) |

I have to comment on the 2000 years thing....
You shouldn't say stuff like that if you aren't inviting argument.
I mean c'mon Xtians have been in charge for 2000 years....
Murder, torture but anything done wrong wasn't done by a Xtian...no way!!!
You wanna worship the invisible sky captain that's your biniss...but don't try to say that Xtianity is faultless and always the underdog...
Anyway...nice figs and Im lucky my roomie likes painting figs and rocks at it! |

Well actually I can't believe that Christian persecution thing has been for 2000 years? That would mean Christians have been around as long as Jesus, and that is quite frankly hard to believe!! |

Like them dark elves. And since this thread has been hijacked. I'll post a pic of my orc team I did some years ago.
Darkwolf and Pete W - everybody has right to an opinion but old Japanese saying says; Opinions are respected most when kept to oneself. |
