AGRAM GROUP BUILD

From 2021, the Association also organizes group projects for its members in which several members participate at once. The program was created after our members discussed joint projects on Wednesdays and how it would be convenient to gather more people on Wednesdays at our Hobby corner on Wednesdays and work on a common "something"... From this, the idea of Group Builds was born. Given that several projects are "open" at the same time, members have something to do whenever they come. The idea is that everyone does something on each of these projects - and the main rule (except that there are no rules) is not to mess with other people's work. Let's all participate and make some kind of Frankenstein's monster...

Project #3

Project #3 consists of painting a Three Musketeers bust in a dog version produced by Daniele Found Miniatures.

Project #4

Project #4 is the creation of a game board and painting of miniatures for the Games Workshop game from the 90s called Full Tilt. Two stands for the common people and one larger one for the royal family were created. In addition, a fence was built for the knightly tournament. The knight miniatures are from Fireforge Games, while the audience miniatures are resin miniatures from Fenryll. The following members participated in the creation: Jelena Džamonja, Dalibor Čavić, Krunoslav Belinić, Marin Stojanović, Kristijan Kliska, Nino Marasović and Marko Paunović.

Project #6

Project #6 consists of assembling and painting a bust of Iron Maiden Eddie, produced under license by Michael Kontraros Collectibles. The project was attended by: Marko Paunović, Ana Polanšćak, Krunoslav Belinić, Mario Grgurev and Uroš Brkić.

ADVENT IN AGRAM

From 2022, during October, November and December, we organize a program called Advent in Agram, which consists of two interactive workshops for creating spatial models during October and November and shorter demonstration workshops during December. Interactive workshops mean that the participants make their own models according to the instructions and under the supervision of the leader. Demonstration workshops in December consist of a number of separate topics that deal with modeling methods, effects and materials related to the winter period, such as making snow, ice and the like, which the lecturer demonstrates in class.

In addition to the workshops, in December, the decorating of pine trees is organized as well as raffles and flea markets of miniatures and bits.

  	From 2021, the Association also organizes group projects for its members in which several members participate at once. The program called Agram Group Build was created after our members discussed joint projects on Wednesdays and how it would be convenient to gather more people on Wednesdays at our Hobby corner to work on a common "something"... #Project2 presents a dieselpunk diorama of a flying island with a fast food stand and several docks for flying cars, and the wonderful art of Alejandro Burdisi serves as a template. The main effects on the diorama will be LED lighting, but also the application of the tensegrity principle.
  
  	  
  
  	After a long time of this project "cooking", and after successfully completing three projects (Full Tilt game boards with figures - #Project4, busts of musketeers - #Project3 and busts of Iron Maiden Eddie - #Project6), it's time to start with the dioramas. We had two projects to choose from. #Project1 - a diorama of New York/Gotham in a scale of 1:35 and #Project2 - a diorama of a flying dieselpunk island.
  
  	
  
  	Since we managed to find an adequate set for making a flying platform in Carta, the decision fell on #Project2. We used the Necromunda Platforms and Walkways set. We glued two platforms one on top of the other in opposite directions, thus obtaining the construction of an island.
  
  	  
  
  	We used the walkways to expand the surface of the platform and added a 40k container to it, on which we cut windows on one side. In this way, we will make a burger joint (or some such fast food facility) out of the container.
  
  	  
  
  	While some of us had fun making the island, others started looking for bits that we could use in the diorama. As this project has been in development for four years, over time we managed to acquire the appropriate bits that now needed to be found first. We found garbage containers, bottles, demijohns, canisters, buckets, garbage bags, but also a few 3D printed actors – robots in various poses.
  
  	  
  
  	A lot of these parts required extra work – removing unnecessary 40k insignia. We left skulls here and there… every burger joint should have some poison in its barrels…
  
  	  
  
  	In addition to the above parts, we also found satellite dishes and welding gas tanks and assembled them.
  
  	  
  
  	Next time we'll start with creating the interior of the container, or rather, creating a kitchen, but maybe also creating high beds where the boss will grow vegetables and spices for his burgers.

  	Od 2021. Udruga za svoje članove organizira i grupne projekte na kojima sudjeluje više članova odjednom. Program pod nazivom Agram Group Build je nastao nakon što su naši članovi srijedama razgovarali o zajedničkim projektima i kako bi bilo zgodno okupiti više ljudi srijedama na našem Hobby kutku srijedom i to oko rada na zajedničkom „nečemu”… Projekt #2 predstavlja dieselpunk dioramu letećeg otoka sa štandom za fast food i nekoliko dokova za leteće automobile, a kao predložak služi nam predivan art Alejandra Burdisija. Glavni efekti na diorami biti će LED rasvjeta, ali i primjena tensegrity principa.
  
  	  
  
  	Nakon duljeg vremena što se ovaj projekt „kuha“, i nakon uspješno odrađena tri projekta (Full Tilt igraće table sa figurama – #Projekt4, bisti mušketira - #Projekt3 i bisti Iron Maiden Eddija - #Projekt6), vrijeme je da krenemo i sa dioramama. Na izbor smo imali dva projekta. #Projekt1 – diorama New Yorka/Gothama u mjerilu 1:35 i #Projekt2 – diorama letećeg dieselpunk otoka.
  
  	  
  
  	S obzirom da smo u Carti uspjeli naći adekvatni set za izradu leteće platforme, odluka je pala na #Projekt2. Iskoristili smo Necromunda set Platforms and Walkways. Dvije platforme smo zalijepili jednu na drugu u suprotnim smjerovima i tako dobili konstrukciju otoka.
  
  	  
  
  	Walkwaye smo iskoristili da proširimo površinu platforme i na nju dodali 40k kontejner na kojemu smo na jednoj strani izrezali prozore. Na taj način ćemo od kontejnera napraviti burgerdžinicu (ili neki takav fast food objekt).
  
  	  
  
  	Dok se dio nas zabavljao s izradom otoka, drugi su se bacili na potragu za bitsima koje bismo mogli iskoristiti na diorami. Kako je ovaj projekt u razvoju već četvrtu godinu, tijekom vremena smo uspjeli nabaviti odgovarajuće bitseve koje je sada trebalo prvo pronaći. Našli smo kontejnere za smeće, boce, demižone, kanistere, kante, vreće za smeće, ali i nekolicinu 3D isprintanih aktera – robota u raznim pozama.
  
  	  
  
  	Dosta tih dijelova zahtjevalo je ekstra posla – micanje nepotrebne 40k insignije. Tu i tamo smo ostavili mrtvačke glave… svaka burgerdžinica treba imati ponešto otrova u bačvama…
  
  	  
  
  	Osim navedenih dijelova, našli smo i satelitske antene te tankove plina za zavarivanje te smo iste složili.
  
  	  
  
  	Sljedeći puta krećemo sa izradom interijera kontejnera odn. izradom kuhinje, ali možda i izradom visokih gredica gdje će šef uzgajati povrće i začine za svoje burgere.

  	This year, our member Ivan Knezović and his brothers, Petar and Filip, (popularly called the Knezović Clan) visited the Kontrast international miniature painting competition in Poland. And this is his report.
  
  	  
  
  	One of the largest miniature painting competitions in the world has been taking place in Warsaw since 2021. The Knezović clan visited Kontrast for the first time in 2023. The event was great and we enjoyed almost 1500 works, many of which were made by masters at the highest artistic level. We decided to visit Warsaw again in 2025, after completing enough works to justify the 12-hour drive one way.
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	We came to Kontrast as a kind of UMS Agram emissaries, and we handed out flyers for Black Queen 2026 and met a number of other enthusiasts, and we hope that some of them will visit Zagreb. We also brought home the Best of Show medal for the work that impressed us the most. We awarded the UMS Agram Best of Show to Dimosthenis Xylas, a miniaturist from Athens, for his dwarf. The work impressed us with its phenomenal atmosphere, smooth transitions, the play of multiple light sources, the level of quality on each individual element, and the convincing textures of the metal. Also, we simply love dwarfs.
  
  	  
  
  	The number of phenomenal works was large, because in 2025 more than 1700 works were exhibited in 2 classes - Standard for beginners and hobbyists and Master for professionals and those who have already proven themselves at international competitions (everyone who won gold in Standard will compete in Master in the future).
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	Petar won silver in the Master in 2023 and exhibited his works in the Master in 2025, while Filip and I did not have such good results and entered our works in the Standard.
  
  	One of the works that particularly stood out was Captain Titus from the game Space Marine 2 in a huge scale, it seems to me to be 1/4. It may not be the best, but it is a work that all visitors noticed.
  
  	
  
  	One of the works that impressed us was a truly enormous diorama of Khorne Chaos Space Marines vs. Ultramarines. The diorama is huge, but each model is painted to a very high standard and contains about 30 models in various sizes. It is an imitation of a famous painting depicting a battle in Warhammer 40k.
  
  	
  
  	Going through every work that impressed us would make this article too long, and words convey much less than photographs. Luckily, Filip came with a very good camera, so I leave some pictures for the readers to enjoy.
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	Our results were beyond expectations. Petar did not return with a medal, because during the 2 years he worked mostly on orders. He painted more than 400 models, but almost all of them were orders. In 3 days he painted the Durgin Paint Forge Orca. The model is really excellent, but the competition was great. With a few more days of work he would definitely be in the running for a medal. I think he can be satisfied with his work and next time aim for a medal with 6 days of painting.
  
  	  
  
  	Jure Cukar, for whom we carried 3 models, won 1 silver in the Standard class.Filip won 2 silvers in the Standard class for his lizards (dioramas) and for his ambient soldier (single model up to 54 mm).
  
  	
  
  	I came to Kontrast with 5 exhibits. I came back with results that I did not expect even in my most optimistic dreams, because this is a truly huge competition with numerous top artists. I entered all my works in the Standard class.
  
  	For my Midori bust, I won gold in the Standard Historical and Realism category and an award from Alternity Miniatures, the company whose bust it is a product.
  
  	For my cat Albert, I won silver in the Standard Storytelling category.
  
  	For Dwarf Lord, I won gold in the Standard category for models larger than 54 millimeters.
  
  	  
  
  	For my dwarf adventurers, I won gold in the Standard Diorama category, a medal from Verko's Vault (miniature museum in Las Vegas) and what I really didn't expect, Best of Standard – the award for the best work of all works in the Standard category.
  
  	  
  
  	Finally, and this is perhaps the greatest recognition for my work, I won silver in the Master category for my Infinity regiment. Namely, all competitors submitted their works in only one class, either Standard or Master. However, the judges reserved the possibility of moving the model from Standard to Master.
  
  	  
  
  	All in all, Kontrast is a great experience. I hope we will visit Warsaw again, if not in 2026 then in 2027. In the meantime, I hope our Black Queen will also visit some of the new people we met in Poland.

  	Ove godine naš član Ivan Knezović je sa svojom braćom, Petrom i Filipom, (popularno nazvanima Klan Knezović) posjetio međunarodno natjecanje u bojanju minijatura Kontrast u Poljskoj. A ovo je njegov izvještaj!
  
  	  
  
  	Jedno od najvećih natjecanja u bojenju minijatura na svijetu odvija se u Varšavi od 2021. godine. Klan Knezović je posjetio Kontrast prvi puta 2023. godine. Događaj je bio sjajan te smo uživali u gotovo 1500 radova, od kojih su mnogi rađeni od strane majstora na najvišoj umjetničkoj razini. Odlučili smo i 2025., nakon što smo dovršili dovoljno radova da opravdamo vožnju od 12 sati u jednom smijeru ponovno posjetiti Varšavu.
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	Na Kontrast smo došli kao svojevrsni izaslanici UMS Agrama te smo podijelili letke za Black Queen 2026. te upoznali veći broj drugih entuzijasta te se nadamo da će neki posjetiti Zagreb. Donijeli smo i Best of Show medalju za rad koji nas se najviše dojmio. UMS Agram Best of Show dodijelili smo Dimosthenisu Xylasu, minijaturistu iz Atene za njegovog patuljka. Rad nas je dojmio fenomenalnom atmosferom, glatkim prijelazima, igrom više izvora svjetla, razinom kvalitete na svakom pojedinom elementu i uvjerljivim teksturama metala. Također, jednostavno volimo patuljke.
  
  	  
  
  	Broj fenomenalnih radova bio je velik, jer je 2025. bilo izloženo više od 1700 radova u 2 klase - Standard za početnike i hobiste te Master za profesionalce i one koji su se već iskazali na međunarodnim natjecanjima (svi koji su u Standardu osvojili zlato ubuduće se natječu u Masteru).
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	Petar je 2023. osvojio srebro u Masteru te je i 2025. izlagao radove u Masteru, a ja i Filip nismo imali tako dobre rezultate te smo svoje radove prijavili u Standard.
  
  	Od radova koji su se posebno isticali bio je kapetan Titus iz igre Space Marine 2 u ogromnoj skali, od oka čini mi se da je 1/4. Možda nije najbolji, ali je rad koji su svi posjetitelji primijetili.
  
  	
  
  	Jedan od radova koji nas se dojmio je i zbilja ogromna diorama Khorne Chaos Space Marinaca protiv Ultramarinaca. Diorama je ogromna, ali svaki model pobojen je na vrlo visokoj razini te sadrži oko 30 modela u različitim veličinama. Imitacija je poznatog slikarskog prikaza bitki u Warhammeru 40k.
  
  	
  
  	Proći svaki rad koji nas se dojmio oduljilo bi ovaj članak, a riječi prenose puno manje nego fotografije. Srećom, Filip je došao s vrlo dobrim foto aparatom te ostavljam neke slike za uživanje čitateljima.
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	Naši rezultati bili su iznad očekivanja. Petar se nije vratio s medaljom, jer je kroz 2 godine radio većinom na narudžbama. Pobojio je više od 400 modela, ali gotovo sve su bile narudžbe. U 3 dana pobojio je Durgin Paint Forge orka. Model je zbilja izvrstan, ali konkurencija je bila velika. S još nekoliko dana rada zasigurno bi ušao u konkurenciju za medalju. Mislim da može biti zadovoljan samim radom i sljedeći put ciljati na medalju sa 6 dana bojenja.
  
  	  
  
  	Jure Cukar, za koga smo nosili 3 modela osvojio je 1 srebro u Standard klasi. Filip je osvojio 2 srebra u Standard klasi za svoje guštere (diorama) i za svojeg ambientalnog vojnika (single model do 54 mm).
  
  	
  
  	Ja sam na Kontrast došao s 5 izložaka. Vratio sam s rezultatima koje nisam očekivao niti u najoptimističnijim snovima, jer se radi o zbilja ogromnom natjecanju s brojnim vrhunskim umjetnicima. Sve svoje radove prijavio sam u Standard klasu.
  
  	Za svoju Midori bistu osvojio sam zlato u Standard Historical and Realism kategoriji te nagradu Alternity Miniaturesa, tvrtke čija je bista proizvod.
  
  	Za svojeg mačka Alberta osvojio sam srebro u Standard Storytelling kategoriji.
  
  	Za Dwarf Lorda osvojio sam zlato u Standard kategoriji za modele veće od 54 milimetra.
  
  	  
  
  	Za svoje patuljke avanturiste osvojio sam zlato u Standard Diorama kategoriji, medalju Verko's Vaulta (muzej minijatura u Las Vegasu) te ono što stvarno nisam očekivao, Best of Standard – nagradu za najbolji rad od svih radova u Standard kategoriji.
  
  	  
  
  	Na kraju, a ovo je možda najveće priznanje za moje radove, osvojio sam srebro u Master kategoriji za svoj Infinity regiment. Naime, svi natjecatelji svoje radove prijavljivali su samo u jednu klasu, ili Standard ili Master. No, suci su pridržali mogućnost pomicanja modela iz Stanarda u Master.
  
  	  
  
  	Sve u svemu Kontrast je sjajno iskustvo. Nadam se da ćemo ponovno posjetiti Varšavu, ako ne 2026. onda 2027. U međuvremenu, nadam se da će i naš Black Queen posjetiti i neki od novih ljudi koje smo upoznali u Poljskoj.

  	A quick report because I literally had 10-15 minutes to look at this model, take pictures of it and listen to some details about the city it represents. So, if your trip brings you to Plzeň in western Bohemia, I recommend you look for this beautiful model of the old city center in a scale of 1:200. The model is approximately 2x2 meters in size and is located on the ground floor of the city hall, which is located on the main square opposite the Cathedral of St. Bartholomew.
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	Regarding our hobby, and while you're here, I believe it's also worth visiting the General Patton Museum, the Puppet Museum, and the Colors of Warriors hobby shop. Unfortunately, due to work and previously scheduled obligations, I wasn't able to see them, and therefore didn't get to take any pictures. But at least, besides the excellent beer, I have an additional reason to visit this beautiful Czech city again. So here are some more photos of the model of Plzen.
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	And if you happen to be in Prague, be sure to visit the toy store Hračky u Zlatého lva. Yes, toys, I know. But you will enjoy classic wooden toys, dolls and metal model cars. Although it is not large by some general standards, the store is spread over 2 floors with a small note: if you are looking for transformers, WH 40k, minions and other modern wonders there, you will be quite disappointed. I was not.

  	Jedan brzinski izvještaj jer sam imao doslovno 10-15 minuta pogledati ovu maketu, poslikati ju i poslušati neke detalje o gradu kojeg predstavlja. Dakle, ako vas put dovede u Plzeň u zapadnoj Češkoj, preporučam da potražite ovi prekrasnu maketu stare gradske jezgre u mjerilu 1:200. Maketa je otprilike veličine 2x2 metra i nalazi se u prizemlju gradske uprave, a koja se nalazi na glavnom trgu nasuprot katedrale Sv. Bartolomeja.
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	Vezano uz naš hobi, a dok ste ovdje, vjerujem da se još isplati posjetiti Muzej generala Pattona, Muzej lutaka i hobby shop Colours of Warriors. Ja ih, nažalost, radi posla i ranije isplaniranih obaveza nisam uspio vidjeti, a samim time niti poslikati. Ali bar, osim izvrsnog piva, imam dodatni razlog opet posjetiti ovaj lijepi češki grad. Stoga još malo fotki makete Plzena.
  
  	  
  
  	  
  
  	A ako vas put slučajno nanese u Prag, obavezno posjetiti trgovinu igračaka Hračky u Zlatého lva. Da, hrački, I know. Ali ćete zato uživati u klasičnim drvenim igračkama, lutkama i metalnim modelima autića. Iako nije velika za neke generalne pojmove trgovina se prostire na 2 etaže uz malu napomenu: ako ćete tamo tražiti transformerse, WH 40k, minione i ostala moderna čudesa prilično ćete se razočarati. Ja nisam.

  	U subotu i nedjelju, 17. i 18.5. održali smo novu vikend radionicu bojanja minijatura. Ovog puta tema je bilo konvertiranje i kitbashanje.
  
  	Radionica se provodila kroz dva dana (cijeli vikend) i bila je fokusirana na izradu dvije (do tri) vlastite minijature od raznih dijelova (više različitih minijatura) uz dodatak modeliranja dijelova uz pomoć modelarskih masa (Green Stuff). Sastojala se od dva dijela, teorijskog i praktičnog dijela. Tijekom radionice polaznici su se upoznali s alatima, materijalima i tehnikama za izvođenje jednostavnih i kompleksnih konverzija, uključujući uporabu masa za modeliranje.
  
  	
  
  	
  
  	
  
  	Teorijski dio uključuje savjete za planiranje, nabavu dijelova i smisleno sklapanje personaliziranih minijatura da bi polaznici naučili izbjeći početničke greške i podigli svoje vještine na viši nivo.
  
  	U praktičnom dijelu, uz pomoć voditelja primijenila su se stečena znanja na vlastitu konverziju.
  
  	
  
  	
  
  	
  
  	Praktični dio Radionice se odvijao na sljedeći način:
  
  	Prvo, predavač sjedi za svojim stolom te objašnjava i demonstrira pojedini korak na svojem primjerku dok polaznici slušaju, gledaju, ali i postavljaju pitanja. Potom, polaznici sjedaju za svoje stolove i primjenjuju stečeno znanje. Predavač potom kruži između polaznika i provjerava kako svakom polazniku ide. Na taj način, može se prilagoditi svakom polazniku ponaosob.
  
  	
  
  	
  
  	
  
  	U nedjelju od 16:00 svi polaznici su dobili profesionalni feedback na urađene radove od Ane Polanšćak iz Gardens of Hecate.
