Kiwi painters sought for Peter Jackson's Gallipoli diorama

[Arteis]

Here’s the chance for New Zealand wargamers to volunteer for a massive model-painting project to commemorate Gallipoli, led by Sir Peter Jackson. 

The aim will be to paint 4,000 never-seen-before 54mm figures by the Perry twins before the end of March!

Much more info and photos here:

I'd be into it, it's says good painters though so not sure how f I qualify and I don't belong to a club either.

I wish everyone the very best of luck with this excellent project. I would dearly love to be involved but I'm a Tommy and it would seem unable to volunteer  because I'm in the wrong hemisphere.

I am sure that everyman pitching in will be appreciated, club member or not. Get in touch with Roly if you think you can help.

Why you do this to me? Someone in New Zealand take me in for a few months pretty please?

You can crash at my place if you can get yourself here

Some rich bloke getting his figures painted for free!!! I'm worried Malamute will get ideas

Whilst I understand you were probably joking, I just want to clarify these are not 'his' figures, Bugsda.  

This project is to paint figures for a national commemoration exhibition, and the actual POINT is to involve loads of NZers.  

After all, Peter Jackson could easily have contracted a painting company to paint the entire 4,000 with a lot less fuss and effort, and end up with a more consistent and possibly even better finish - but that would miss the whole point.

Yeah, just joking. I figured it was something like that, good luck with it

If you are being serious I'd be more than willing to look into it as this really sounds like something I would love to get involved in.

No, Mark Blubing would be pointless. It would be as pointless as trying to teach a woman the value of a good, forward defensive stroke.  Besides,  it would take a superman to paint them all alone , not the kind of weed who blubs just because somebody gives him a slice rabbit pie instead of birthday cake. Now pick up your brush man !

Seriously it s a great project and the figures are fantastic ! There may even be need of my pitching in with Johnny Turk

Good luck!!!

It is a long way to come to paint models but I have plenty of room at the Woolshed (there is a house too  )
