I thought it would be neat to show off some of the past winners or finalists of painting competitions. And for a few years there was even an Inquisitor category at the Golden Demons! Almost all of these are 54mm scale, though the odd few may not be at that scale and I’ve accidentally included them.

This post shows minis that won Bronze in the Golden Demon competition. I’ve focused on the golden demon as there are lots of pics on the internet. And a word of warning…space marines and elder rangers are popular entries…

Minis that won Bronze

Here are the minis that placed third in their category or won the bronze at the Golden Demon.

Jena Orechiel by Steve Buddle won Bronze at the UK Golden Demon 2003. [A description from the creator: The figure has had a fair amount of detail carved off to give surfaces to paint freehand on. New hair braids were also sculpted that are finer than those that come with the figure].

Eldar Exodites by Jeremie Bonamant Bax Seremis won bronze at UK Golden Demons 2003 in the battle scene category

The only GW parts are the top of the banner pole and the magazine off her bolt pistol. Apart from the Sister, I’m not too happy how this one turned out].
