Wow, thanks for the praise Vrac and John! I'm sure quite a few of these guys are doing it far better than myself (Cap, Gruson, MK ultra, etc) but I appreciate it none the less.

It is indeed Dawn, the 10th anniversary regular and 1 of only 100 of the Silver Exclusives. What makes this one even better is that Linsner did original artwork on the back for Eva Hopkins, one of his co-workers/creators (Dark Ivory). I got this from her. Apparently, Linsner lives not too far from me also, which is cool.

For some really nice pics of her, see this post, starting with post # 36

Rilynil, only fullsize RingWraith is the one on the horse...Maybe a PF from SS one day? I painted my Detolfs, but I hear the Black and White ones are starting to show up in the US now.

UP, the lights are the 'NON' model from IKEA. If you look at the second picture in post # 444, you will see it mounted to the top inside. Well, that big silver piece comes off, and your left with a smaller all black light housing. I used a hole saw to cut out two circles in the top, and slipped them in from the top.










So computerfly do still want the doom PF back? I see some possible trades in these pics hehehehe.

It's called a "family room", but I think you can tell who it's for. Computerfly, I painted my Detolf's too. They look great black. Here's my newly displayed collection:





I have some other items to display, but ran out of Detolf's. Going back to IKEA soon. If the new black/brown doesn't match my stuff, I'll just paint them again. I finally got the hang of it after 5 units.
Sweet display!

Awesome setups and collections everybody, will post mine soon.
I wish I were rich so I could get everything I wanted but alas, have to distribute the money evenly as I have expensive desires. I'm into photography and have spent a great amount on the equipment as some of you know it costs an eye and a leg

And now may I ask for some close up pics of the dragon or whatever that is beneath the ringwraith on horse.

Here you go Upitnik

Yeah, the Draco is in my top 10 favorites. I've always loved dragons, and the Shifletts did an AMAZING job on this piece. You might see these on eBay 3 to 4 times a year. They're very rare to find for sale. Usually anywhere from $500 to $700 for a nice one. I had two, but sold the other. I wouldn't take $1000 for this last one (nor a Doom, Ryan, not that your offering)
