Welcome all to the 135th round of the Dakka Painting challenge. For the unfamiliar, this is a friendly painting competition open to members of all skill levels and experience, whether your entry is your first or you thousand-and-first time painting miniatures. Each month, finished entries are collected into a thread where the community can vote on their favorite pieces, and those votes go towards an annual overall League that runs for 12 rounds.

This month the topic is: Hunter and the Hunted: Rangers, inquisitors, assassins, snipers, and other combatants who search for the enemy and destroy them. Also woodland creatures, grots or othering things targeted for the hunt. Or cross the streams and paint up a fox assassin. Lots of woodland adventure minis out there. Things that stalk the night and their prey.


- You may enter up to 5 MODELS as a SINGLE ENTRY, and are permitted one entry per member per month. If you enter multiple models, they should ideally be related in some way, such as part of the same squad, unit or scene if you are doing a diorama
- You may enter at any time during the month, up to the last minute. We do encourage people to enter early, as to be part of the community, but if you can’t start until the 11th hour, that’s OK.
- You MUST post a 'proof' picture of your entry in the thread of the state it was in before you started working on it; this must be either unassembled, unpainted, primed or coated a single colour. Entries that do not submit a valid Proof Picture will not be eligible for voting.
- After this, you may post WIP pictures in this thread and your own if you wish, and on completing the entry, you may post up to 6 final pictures IN THIS THREAD that will then be used for voting. Please note that pictures in a montage or collage picture will be considered individual images for this purpose, so while these types of presentation are certainly acceptable, please keep the image limit in mind when compiling them. For example, a collage of 5 images and one separate image would count as your 6 picture allowance.


So What Do I Win?
- Points... and points mean... bragging rights for the next month! Following the vote, points will be awarded to every entrant. This year, the Points you receive will be equal to the Percentage of Votes your entry receives in the final Voting thread; if you get 10%, you get 10 points, if you get 6% you get 6 points, so on and so forth.

These points will be used to form a league table, which will be updated month on month as the results come in.

How Long Do I Have?
This challenge begins 1st of May and will end at midnight EST on May 31st After this, I shall compile the finished entries into a new thread, and voting will run for 5 days.

With a theme like that I should really paint the dude with the bow...



Hawkeye was one of the first Crisis Protocol models I assembled but I never got around to painting him. I should do something about that.

Archers? Check.


Getting back into the Cursed City models. And the first hero from the box to hit the paintbench.

Someone said something about minis with bows?

Nothing turns the tables on a squad of space marines who think they're the hunters on this hulk than opening a door and finding a dreadnought staring back at them:

Hunters, eh?

Yup, oldhammer Jes Goodwin Harlequins ... along with a bit of restored tech from the vaults:

So a partial deldar raider that's going to become a Harley party bus; being old flat metals you can fit on a surprisingly number of them. I've sculpted up the face, but if I am unhappy with it, I have an stl to try also. And as for the colour scheme... joke's on you

I dug out a selection of Oldhammer elves. I7lln paint them all up and choose my favorites.

@ inmygravenimage
Perfect! I need to dig out my DE

Well since these are on the painting table to finish priming, it would seem obvious who the hunters need to be. A few random unfortunates from the unpainted mountain and we have the hunted.

Welp, I want to actually chug along this Ogre army a bit more, so I dug up the Hunter from the 'to be primed' pile. I'll probably do a couple of the ones from last month I didn't get to painting to go alongside him.

Probably the wytches

And I just finished this guy like two days ago



Oh well I'll see if I manage something during the month !

Well once again I'm a bit stumped on what to do. I have like half a thousand project "in progress" so cannot get a before picture... I thinks it's gonna be some cursed city heroes if I can find them haha.

Need to have a little scratch of the noodle for this month. Think I've got an idea.

this sounds like a really fun thing! Who's ready to see some not-so-amazing painted models of mine later this month! Now the question is what do I work on. My custom battle wagon that's all ready to be painted or some of the '90s Miniatures I just picked up...

I always loved this model. I can’t wait to see it all painted up!

Trying to decide what I'm going to paint is the hard part, I think. Do I go with my custom ork battle Wagon that's sized to be a battle Fortress or do I go with one of the guys I recently acquired that are more on the vintagey middle Hammer side of things?

Is there a specific new theme for each month? I'm new and have never done this. Also, is it fine if I use Imgbb for the photos instead of uploading to the gallery, as I'm not sure how that works, but I'm familiar with the other.

New here myself but I would say adding pics to the gallery was pretty easy. Go to Gallery, My Gallery and add pics. Then include the img. I had to lower my resolution before uploading to keep the picture reasonably sized. Probably a better way to limit it but I have not learned that yet.

Welcome aboard.

The general way things go is we vote for next month’s topic a little over a week before it starts (barring a few fixed months where I will remind everyone March is “space marine” October is a Halloween special, December is an open round, and February is a finish it special round). Normally the 2nd place topic from the month before gets a second chance, along with 3 new topics. Ideas are always welcome, and I generally fish for them halfway through the month. Unused topics get put on a list for future consideration.

We then get a month to paint from start to finish. Poll goes up, vote lasts 5 days, winner announced.

Lather rinse repeat.

We will occasionally break out own rules, but I will let you know. Occasionally for “horde” topics we lift the 5 model limit. For Feb we lift the “must start blank” rule to let people polish off old works.

Images can be hosted on Dakka (which we prefer) but you can link them from anywhere. One reason we prefer them hosted here is that we know they will work, and won’t be paywalled, have hotlinked issues, axed by the host, or be banned in certain countries. But that’s just a preference, not a rule.

At some point I should probably write up the full hyper-specific rules, with examples and all the fine print. But I don’t want to bog down the normal boilerplate I post at the start of every month in legalease.

I know mice tend to be more the hunted than the hunter but something about this one suggests she’s not out doing target practice.

Hey Nev,
I know it's breaking the rules a little, so I won't be insulted to be told no, but I wanted to check if I could enter this guy. I've painted some silver on him already, so he's not not unpainted for the before picture. I'm just wondering if it's close enough. I think he fits the hunter theme pretty well, and I'm having trouble thinking of what else I have that I would feel like painting for this month's theme.

Yeah, that’s fine. A little splash on one color that probably took less then a minute to do is not a dig deal.

Okay, thank you.

Welcome!

Dakka gallery is useful tool.
You can make a category to group the images to keep things organized. On the right side, in the My Gallery, you will see your created categories, you can edit them too.


When in the image settings, you can select what size you want the images displayed at (recommended, thumb, small, medium, full) and then copy the link to paste it on the forum.

For image sizes, if you are using windows 10/11 operation system, the opened image has (edit) button on top, and you can quickly crop or edit contrast. But also when you select image options, there is a (Resize) option that will allow you to adjust image size and resolution without image editing software.
Otherwise you can use a free Browser "photoshop" tool called Photopea to quickly edit images from a browser without any software. https://www.photopea.com/

Glad to have you on board, take time to get to know dakka, gallery tools are your friends!

Come up with one for this month:



My converted "counts as" Cadian Castellan for my Guard along with his faithful hound. Think he matches up to a hunter quite nicely.

I'm probably biting off more than I can chew, especially since we're already a week into the month of May, but I'll try and paint my Necrosphinx since I was able to get it primed. Proof:

Necrosphinxes hunt their quarry to send it to the afterlife, and their rules in game reflect this, so I figure it fits the theme adequately. There's a ton of detail on this monstrosity, so I hope I can get it done in time.

The hunt for The Unforgiven goes on!

I got this kitbash I want to finish for a friend. I guess the Ravenwing are hunters of a sort?

Well this month is an excellent opportunity to get back on track with Hive Fleet Kraken... a pair of Lictors represent the epitome of Hunters I think!

HELL YES! The Ravenwing are indeed hunters and I look forward to seeing that painted!

This ambush predator is on the hunt through the nearest Space Hulk. The first of my kitbash Eldar terminator equivalents, an Umbral Caiman Aspect Warrior.

DONE! (Drukhari Wyches)

Inquisitors you say? I'm in with these two hunters:


There are so many cool proofs already, I can't wait to see everything all painted up!

Also, for folks new to using the site/gallery, when copy/pasting links from the gallery into this thread, it's usually best to use the "medium (up to 600px)" size or else it blows up the formatting of the whole thread page for small screens (like phones).

I’ll enter some of these Inquisition Agents this month:

The Hunters...









Not forgetting the Hunted (because the smiling god needs his bat!)

More pics in blog, might change around for final pics

I was a dumb git and forgot to post a before photo after stripping the paint off the model and priming it, so hopefully these photos after being primed are acceptable.




Still trying to figure out which of the three back pieces I have that I'll use, as he'll be a chaos lord with jump pack. Probably one of the two jump packs I 3d printed ( the other one is the original )

Primed is fine.

Evening all,

Little update on my two minis:





Just some base coating and so on for now. I'm thinking the mane of the beast will be a purpley colour (also needs a name! Suggestions welcome!) I'm hoping that looks like a decent fur effect.

Cheers for now.

I really like the dappled coat of the beast

Finished my hunters. Need to work on the hunted. That and my lighting as the metallic finish of the aliens is washed out.

Of course I saw this thread when my Ogre Hunter and Sabretusks were almost finished already
I'll put forward Boss Snikrot for consideration by the jury then:

Depending on how fast I finish up I might give him a couple of friends from my Kommandos:

Maybe I'll get some more daemon/witch/alien hunter henchmen done for my Inquisitors?

WIP of my Necrosphinx:

Lots more to do on this thing, but the stone "skin" and most of the gold is blocked in. I'm going to do the wing "feathers" and the blades, plus maybe a couple of other details in bronze, so those haven't been done yet. And then of course there'll be all the small details all over this thing...

 Flinty wrote:

Cheers Flinty!

Gold on the necrosphinx is looking mighty fine there ZergSmasher!





I'm a fair bit further along with Captain Edgar Magpye and the Beast.

Quick reminder that we are halfway though the month. Plan your progress accordingly.

--
I might end up switching my entry to the free mini of the month Votan Jager. We’ll see what ends up happening.

Whoopsie, forgot to post the "before" picture.

Here is my entry for the month, 4 of my cursed city set (about time I start theses guys) Below the primed version then current WIP. I was trying the 'underpainting' style but it turned quite differently, though I'm kinda happy with the result for now.

Looking good, but the image is super tiny.

Yeah I'm still struggling a lot to take pictures... Here it is in big

Spoiler:

OH yeah! much better!
Yeah, picture taking is an entire section of hobby, especially with limited space.
I built this light box, and decided to post up update https://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/790851.page It is OK, but it is small, and I do not have good lights. I did invest into a good camera, but I lack the knowledge and experience with it, and lack funds for a better lens. and my phone camera is even worse, I feel you man. Most of the time I do not know what I am doing with the camera.

Stalking the battlefield from the sky, this Autarch hunts for his prey



Yes, I'm not completely starting from scratch. But hopefully it's close enough to be ok..?

 Zambro wrote:

Time rolls forward. What I think of primed is a sold layer of a flat color. But with things then zenith highlights, not all primes are even these days. You are fine.

Captain Edgar Magpye and The Beast are 99% completed. I might piddle about the with base a little bit over the remaining time for this month.







First proper go at NMM so I think it turned out okay.

Going away at the end of the week, so no idea if I’ll get this guy finished in time, but we just started playing Oathsworn and I had great fun running the Cur, who also seems to be a great example of a hunter.

Proof:


And some progress:

Daia T'Nara - Chaos Dreadnought




Not my cleanest work - because I'm on the bit of the spectrum that thinks optimisation is cool for its own sake this was also my entry for the vehicles/monsters portion of my local group's Ready Ranks challenge, which meant I only had this week and last to paint instead of the whole month, and I didn't want to go to the effort of a full strip down so I just painted over the original paint job and slightly wonky assembly (including what I'm guessing is a scratchbuilt grenade launcher on top? It's fine, I like that the mini has history). It's fine, I picked this up in a batch of four so if I ever want to do a maximum-effort chaos dreadnought I still can with one of the others.

Ugh, it's been so damned hot lately that I'll be lucky if I finish my astropath. I didn't even start the Squat acolyte.

Yeah feeling that myself, just finished the base coat finally last night - not even cleaned up where I spilled outside of the lines yet. Is what happens when you change your color scheme plan 3 times and decide to throw in several other models to paint alongside it and then for some reason decide each of them will only have 1 or 2 colors connecting them to the others. I feel I spent more time deciding what color clothes I wanted a model to wear than I have ever done with myself.

Same. It doesn't help that I'm wrapping up life stuff. I'm probably going to put this project on hold for now until I have more time to work on it and my new paints come in

Finished him, the devious Cur!

Sammael returns, and with a hot new ride! It was a lot of fun to do a little bit of kitbashing again.

The White Mouse: from Burrows & Badgers

Wood Elf Scouts:

Not yet finished, but making some progress on the Lictors (and a few more Nids at the same time-ish).

Managed to finish him just in time before going on vacation, the other Kommandos will have to wait.

Great work everyone! We’ve got a week left, unless anyone asks for the extension.

Remember no vote for next month, as we had a tie for this one. We’ll be painting:

From the Archives: Librarians, archivists, researchers, wizards, inquisitors, - or old classic minis from the vaults! Knock the dust off the old tomes and bring them to the light. Dig something up from the forbidden stacks.

I finished my Astropath and he looks good, but he's hardly anything that's gonna win any prizes...

 KidCthulhu wrote:

Any painted mini is a win against the grey legions. And an incremental step into bettering yourself as a painter and hobbyist. Well done.

Yeah. Is painted and looks good sounds like mission accomplished to me.

Me, I'm taking my time this month. Clint doesn't wear a complicated outfit, which makes it viable to paint at a leisurely pace this month and, ahem, get thoroughly distracted by a video game or two. Might have picked up the pace a bit though, had I known it was going to get unduly warm in late May.

Still, no need to rush anything. There are only a few small bits missing washes and highlights.

Finished the hunted for my month's entry. Tried a new set of acrylic markers on their clothes. It was fast but had issues painting the edges and deep folds of the figure. Painted a horde of 20+ aliens for two friends using a few Vallejo color shifting paints.

[/img][img]

Hello everyone

In an unusual turn of events for me I've actually finished early! Figured I'd do some painting while trying to stay cool (hot in UK atm for May)

I'm really happy with how this Diorama turned out, its fun with a good story and it gives me a good feeling when I look at it so counting that as a win. It will be displayed up front in my cabinet.

Night Goblin Hunter Hunted



Proof

My wip so far:

Ugh, I took some photos of my entry and found a glaring mistake I have to fix...

 KidCthulhu wrote:

I’d offer some sympathy, but that’s like me every month.

To be fair, if you posted the pic it would probably take us like 10 minutes of scrutiny to find the “glaring” mistake. But it’s so easy to see our own flaws.

 KidCthulhu wrote:

I regularly take photos of my models WIP specifically to see where I've missed somehow I still miss some glaring ones!

Some great entries so far, I got a few basing bits and I'll take some more photos of mine tonight.

Hunter and Hunted

A Ratskin brave is being hunted by a Spryer. This pair do fit the theme.







Prof:
Cheers,

CB

Nice work, Cap'n! I have both of those models.

EDIT: Nevermind, I have the alternate sculpt of the Yeld Spyrer.

Lovely entries coming in. Nice work all.

After a great deal of procrastination I managed to get the head space for a colour scheme for my Umbral Caimans. Here is the first, hunting in the dark. Very happy with the green OSL, but the red needs work.

And that's the best Avenger finally painted.

Hawkeye:

Hey look who finished on time (if you count fact that they aren't varnished yet...)!

So first of all, I noted was going to throw some stuff I hadn't painted from April in on top of the hunter I originally posted up, but never reposted that pic so here is that proof (though its the same photo from last month):



Now for the final photos. The Hunter is obvious, the Giant is basically an apex predator so that is obvious, and the guy with three guns is because I wanted to paint up my Bruiser finally for my Ogres, but I guess you can stretch 'has a gun' to 'hunter'.



They are still on their paint stands since they are not fully varnished yet and I didn't want to handle them before doing that, though I suppose 1 coat has been done since I took them. Also man I had so much trouble with autofocus on these, as the pictures can probably show. Not going to pretend they are high art, but I am very happy with how they turned out.

That's Captain Edgar Magpye and The Beast completed. Picked up some nice autumnal leaf scatter to sprinkle on as a finishing touch.

@Flinty love your Caiman! The OSL is really cool

I've been so sleep deprived and exhausted that I didn't start on mine until yesterday. Here's some progress shots:
I hope to finish in time, but I have misplaced his backpack...

Finished painting and took the photos with 2 days to spare? Thats a first for me.
Actually i think it took me 2-3 days each to paint but i only managed to paint them and a Hulk mini this month with the free time i had. I guess 3 is more than 0 so...

Anyway 2 hunters from Runar. Orvar and Namid.

That owl is really nicely done!

 Jadenim wrote:

Thanks! I originally planned to paint it in a way more complex way. like each feather individually... But after the first two washes it turned out really good so i just darkened some parts on the back and called it done.

I'm all finished, but there is an issue uploading images to the forum (thread about it in the Nuts and Bolts section). I'll upload my finished Autarch once its fixed.

 Zambro wrote:

Noted.

We will add at least a one day extension due to technical difficulties. I’ll keep an eye on the thread in the N&B section. If it take long to sort out we’ll go for 24 hours after it’s resolved.

If you are done and are having problems, post here to let us know, and I’ll hold off closing the month until everyone who has said something gets pics in.

(Which for full transparency, includes me )

I am done but need to wait for the gallery to be fixed before I can upload my photos.

I'm done and waiting for it to dry before I take pics and try to upload.

The gallery is still broken, so I'm hosting this on one of my webcomics.

Kid Cthulhu-Astropath Fennix



(when it's fixed, I'll drop it in the gallery)

I like the skin tone on that astropath, KidCthulhu. Very pale and unhealthy!

I am similarly complete, but unable to upload images!

I can't upload pictures either

Maharg wrote:

It appears to be a server-wide issue right now. I do know it is being worked on, though.

On another note, I made the mistake of waiting for new paint to arrive to start painting and then going on a trip for a week, and I haven't even finished base coating, so alas, I must drop out of this month's competition

 Pariah Press wrote:

Thanks! It's the classic Rakarth Flesh base, Reikland Flesh Wash, and Pallid Wych Flesh drybrush.

Well, guess I shouldn't have left uploading til the last minute then.


Got a proof.

And dropping the broken links of final pics in the hopes they fix:




And will keep tabs to properly upload when the all clear is given.
