Sabreghost · 01-15-2009

my vote is for rowie, he's been doing it hard for a while, but he's always been one of the most encouraging people here.

I don't think that I've ever nominated someone....it's just so hard to choose. I've been checking the gallery, recent threads, etc. My nominee is Pat, aka, The Airbrush Guy.

TABG has been a constant presence here on the forum for some time now, and not only does he do outstanding work, he spends ALOT of time helping others. From the How-To's he posts (freely) to helping EVERYONE who asks. Pat has gone out of his way to share his experiance and knowledge to help others reach his level of excellence.

I will get off my soapbox now.

Dave, I am honored brother I truly am though I doubt my stocks in the gallery are worthy of any mention of late.

When I do come back to the brush it will be slow and steady (so I'm told) but it will be with a vengeance unheard of!

My vote actually is for TABG (Pat), for Dave (Sabre) and the ever lovely KD!

Pat has just been an outstanding member not only in display of work but also his floorless support to all member of the forum.

And Sabreghost, in the short time you have been on the forum your skills have gone from stick figures to fantastic pieces of realistic animal life. That my friend is brilliant.

KD, your work is ever evolving and ever changing but one thing each piece of your art is never without has effected me in ways that no other has.
Everything you paint has a heart and soul of it's own, I can see a spirit within each and every piece as if your hands are being guided by some unknown helper.

These are my hero nominations this month, one day I hope to be truly worthy of a nomination for the work I put in the gallery, but for now I'll just sit in the background lurking and picking poo at everyone else's work (hehehe)

Firstly I must agree with BigD. Pat (TABG ) is an outstanding artist and always ready to help people when they need it. But there again Rowie also has a good point, Sabregost has seemed to have masterd airbrush control very quikely and has the promise to become a great AB artist, And then KD well what can I say this lady dose not need in my book any introdution as her work speaks for itself, Fantastic work by a fantastic lady who like many others in our airbrush family has been there for me from the begining so to all those who will be nominated Good luck. At least there is more than one month in a year.

Well i can't improve on what everyone already said about Pat (TABG) except that for me personally he has been a GREAT HELP!!! He's gone out of his way to help me in everything from ABing to pinstripping to sending me books and vids, and his art work speaks for it self (Just Fantastic). I'd like to take this opportunity to say THANKS BRO!!! I appreciate all the help you have given me but mostly i appreciate your freindship!!
( Hope this doesn't sound mushy lol) oh yeah i vote for Pat lol

Neder, you also honor me with your words. Everyone in this forum are well deserving of the honor of nomination.
