Cho blew us away and won a Silver Demon, against some very tough competition, his best showing yet, look out for him next year.

  5. The pics don't do the armies or the table justice. I had a great conversation with John about the painting and work of the armies and table. I wish I could have taken the other half of the table home, but I did win one of the fantasy realm of battle boards. Class act work guys I'm already saving up to donate next year.
