Yes it was lightly attended, but it is only year 3 and there was still tons to do.2.  I ran 3 IK RPG games.  All 3 were full (6 players each).  If I had run more, I would have had full tables for those too.3.  I attended 2 sculpting seminars.  Excellent.  There were painting seminars too.4.  I did the Paint-n-Take and got a cool mini from Magnificent Egos.  My son got a cool bug mini from Mongoose's new Starship Troopers game.5.  There were painting seminars too.6.  I didn't have time for the Speed Painting, but looks like it was a blast too.7.  The vendor/exhibitor hall was small again this year, but all of my favorite guys were there.  Chris Pramas from Green Ronin, Privateer Press was there in force and of Course Wizards.8.  I scored two boxes of minis from PP for their Hordes game.  They are also monsters from the Monsternomicon, so I will be using them in upcoming RPG games.9.  Other goodness: I bought some other mini's from other vendors.  There was a new tabletop skirmish game called Rezolution that had some neat near future mini's.  Great for shadowrun, d20 modern or other game.  I got a cool scenery piece from a company and I did a boffing demo with my son and he cut off my leg, my arm and stabbed me in the chest.  I only got one good hit.  Reach is a big deal, but both fighters need to be quick, and I am not.  The art are had some great prints from some of the great artists.  I didn't buy any prints because I prefer originals, and I hadn't budgeted enough to buy any original work this year, (although I have in the past.)10.  There were some wargames going on, but I didn't have time to play them.11.  There were lots of card games and computer/console gaming for fans of those.All in all, I couldn't have asked for a more fun 3 days and I'll be going again next year if my work schedule permits.Just some ramblings from the nyrfherdrNow back to my regularly scheduled mini thread...I have painted my servitor robot and will take pictures this weekend.  I hope to finish some other painting projects this week before getting on to some sculpting projects I'd like to work on.Game ON!Nyrfherdr</blockquote>
