As things settle down at Salute and tables are being cleaned up, we take a last quick run around to see who's left packing up.

Check out the awesome new feature mini, or biggie from Heresy, the Madame.

Been a fab day for a mad hobbyist being stuck in Cyprus with HM Forces and getting a wee hobby fix from the fellas at BoW. Cheers boys.

panzerkaput

It was nice to see you talk to my local gaming store

ironshield

Well lads you have done another brilliant blog day, have enjoyed it all my wife is still giving me the evil eye but hey……Salute Blog day s to be watched live…..cheers lads once again for a brilliant day will have to make it there one day…….cheers!!

lordbob

That’s a quite disturbing mini. And mini might not be the right word for that thing.

severon

Justin, how often was your head licked?

mulletsteve

I still can’t believe that this is only a one day show… could easily be a full weekend to get more people through the doors and make it more efficient for the traders maximizing sale vs set-up and take down time

cbrenner

Thanks for bringing Salute to us that can’t be there. It was a great day.

lblunchboxlb

The Madame is quite a gribbly!

sayntofsynners

The end of conventions are so sad looking; when all are gone and the packing up is being done.

mckarok

The Madame a huge mini from Heresy and beautiful and yet very disturbing in equal measure.

voidwalker

I wish I could have been there.

sayntofsynners

The Madame was Awesome. Awesome late grab guys.

bigdave

the madame looks incredible – gotta get one!!

kantor72

The Madame is a huge and disturbing mini, yet somehow beautiful to behold…. I think i may need some therapy 😉 .

carabus

Nice last minute run around, always said Salute should be two days it’s just too much for a lot of companies to do. Shame.

darting

That was a good last miniature to close out the show.

Thanks for your coverage.

apeman

painting forgeworld nurgle god at mo ….madame could be his girlfriend if the wife dont find out …..awesome job today really enjoyed footage will rewatch over next few days

kaoswarrior

Madame is indeed a great looking (can’t really call her a Mini can I) ‘Individual’ – Been a Fan/Supporter/Friend to Andy at Heresy for quite a while and can truly recommend giving him a look!

xanadib

funny to see the closing up. nice wrap up of the day!

tchrin

This just underlines the need for Salute to be a two day show

torros

Sundays used to be and probably still are notoriously slow for traders at shows plus I am sure Excel would cost an absolute fortune for 2 days thus either putting up the entry price or charging traders more and there seem to less there this year compared to previous years looking at the list

torros

The last time I was there a traders stand was £485 for a 12 foot frontage

torros

that was 2009

mrtn

Thanks for all your work today.

warwolf

I want that amazing sculpt for my dungeon!

jmrecoil

Thanks for bringing Salute to the East Coast of the U.S.A.

swbeil

When the vendors leave it sure looks empty.

m30wm1x

What an amazing looking show. Thanks again guys for the great coverage. I hope you managed to find time to pick up whatever bits and pieces you were after inbetween the vlogs.

m30wm1x

That Madame mini looks like the answer to the question what would the greater deamons of nurgle and slanesh’s kid look like, very cool.

inu53

Going to have to check out heresy’s stuff, cool of them to pop some stuff out at the last minute (and lucky timing it wasn’t in a van).

wolf320f

I’ve done many comic cons at excel the parking and loading/unloading is horrid

lug45

I think Justin just dist Andy Cooper from Westwind. OOOPPS

tachycardia

Thanks for the coverage. Great as usual.

dammitprawn

Really enjoyed watching the updates today. Thanks guys. And a weekender? You spoil us!

chaoshead87

Looks like everyone had a good day, long but good none the less.

turbocooler

Hmm, the Heresy Madam looks like the Jabba the Hut’s wife…

volkbane

Thanks for the coverage! Hope I’ll get to see it for myself some day.

golonka

That was a madame to my liking… would be make a nice ‘sister’ to my Kingdom Death Wet Nurse 🙂

khy0te

The tired on everyone’s faces, I kind of miss working cons from my days at a Comic/RPG/Wargame/Anime store.

biggrim

Watching all this is almost as good as being there!

gobbo

Great Show!

lawnor

I never knew Jabba the Hutt and Ursula the sea witch had a daughter. Hersey models are something I’m going to have to look for.

rgreenparadox

3 hours to pack up? Better hope you sold everything you brought so you dont have to carry it home. Thats just nuts.

shalinor

The not as fun part of a convention

beetle

Next year, take two roving reporters. That was a lot of space to cover in a day.

janus1004

That was one evil looking demon!

bloodpup

great show guys sometimes I really hate living in Australia we miss so many good events down here

weyly

Damn you miss westwind
Shame on you
Next year

laughingboy

Not sure how, well actually i do know but spent 6 hours there this year and it flew by. Great show.

somegeezer

Quite a day. I’m knackered just from watching it from my sofa.

rayzryr

Geez, sooo much stuff! It has kept me going most of the weekend! Thank you BoW team for this!

tookeywhy

really nice to see heresy just popping it’s head in!

sunabe

thanks for the coverage guys

zeker1966

I like the ending the way you started. very well done.

cassaralla

One day I’ll get there for Salute. One day.

redsarge

Both my Cousins live in England… I want to somehow drag them into one of these events one day, just might have to go with em! Please adjust the CAD-GBP on the week that I visit. 😛

julianb

This show is massive and looks like it is just impossible to get to everything in one day.

crazycabo

That’s a one of a kind convention

thefatmanwalks

Great Coverage guys

hmelrose

Great coverage guys! Thanks for all the hard work!

fireblarney

Looks like a massive day. The Wife just fell in love with the Madam so it looks like I’m going to be a little out of pocket soon, damn you Justin!! 😉

masterdwalin

Salute was awesome! I will visit London for Salute 2018 too! Can’t wait! 🙂

longshotte

It is amazing that it is a one day show. Here in the States it would be at least four.

aurorainbag

It’s been so much fun following along.

baranora

Cool show!

kamaron

It is a HUGE space for gaming! Next year, I need to go there myself!

falerox

Great job guys
