Congrats Filmy! It's a great piece and well deserved win. This months runners up were awesome as well making it a tough choice as usual.

Congratulations on a well deserved 1st place! =)
Your choice of colors really pop and I am more and more longing to dig into Spider Queen, Fly Girl and Bat Girl seeing how wonderful Sam's  sculpts come to life under the brush.

WHOA!  I just saw this, and I cannot believe it!  I am in Lousiville for Wonderfest and saw this thread and thought, "There is no way I won anything, but I'd like to see who did.  Maybe I got a runner-up or something."

Imagine my surprise when I saw that G-Girl was the winner this month.  Wow!  Thanks, guys, you just made my day! 

I have her here at WF, along with Future Girl, Avaris, and my new Vampy.  There are a TON of excellent models on the tables and the vendor room is packed!  I'll do a show report when I get back, but suffice to say that there is a lot of awesome stuff here.  Mecha is WAY down this year - I think there are only four pieces on the tables - which is surprising to me, because last year there were a lot of builds.

Anyway, thanks again for the honor of MoM - G-Girl is thrilled and so am I!
