'''THE GRAND DAD EMPIRE''' ARE a prolific VINESAUCE-centric MEME group based in BEDROCK CITY.  Their largest periods of activity seemed to be around the time SILVAGUNNER was terminated, when they were hosting several unofficial VINESAUCE gaming events (which they assure you repeatedly are ''not'' official Tournaments and are in no way affiliated with JOEL).

They operated out of the SilvaGunner YouTube channel until it was terminated in 2014, after which they appear to have transitioned briefly to GiivaSunner in September of 2016 before returning to SilvaGunner in June of 2018.
Miller's work is similar to that of [[John Blanche]], although while Blanche's style is focused on the feel of an image and an over-the-top "metal" look with lots of blended (red) colors creating a sketchy look, Miller's is focused on massive amounts of detail and sharp lines. Both are very similar in composition.

The original forums appeared to function as four services: preparation and communication in service of coming events, discussion about new HIGH-QUALITY RIPS, MEME showcase, and general VINESAUCE or unrelated discussion.

The VINESAUCE MEME events that The GRAND DAD EMPIRE held were known for being diverse and involved, due in large part to their incredibly strong YTP scene.  These events would involve VINESAUCE-branded fan-made HIGH-QUALITY RIPS for SONGS that wouldn't exist for nearly a decade, and some that still don't!  They also hosted some of the first KING FOR ANOTHER DAY tournaments, with fan HIGH-QUALITY RIPS.

Ian Miller is an illustrator who has worked on many tabletop gaming works throughout the years, not the least of which was Warhammer Fantasy and Rogue Trader in the earliest days of Games Workshop, Shadowrun in the early editions, and more modern Tolkien works.

Miller's work is similar to that of John Blanche, although while Blanche's style is focused on the feel of an image and an over-the-top "metal" look with lots of blended (red) colors creating a sketchy look, Miller's is focused on massive amounts of detail and sharp lines. Both are very similar in composition.
