@ms07b3- are those terminators at the beach? GENIUS! The water effect base are brilliant, and I love the OSL reflection.

All of my iron hand army are on a water planet (I watched most of the iron hand models are on the sand so I want to make some difference XD).
But it is not suitable to most of the table Orz.

I finally got round to setting up the camera and light box for my finished photos:









Discovered in the fossilised ruin of an ancient, derelict, alien spaceship, from an unknown origin, lost in the depths of time and space, the LV-426 "Xenomorphs" are a horror from ages past.

[And, for the record, definitively not just created a few decades prior to their discovery by a random, psycopathic, android...]

Amazing work, everyone!

Here is my last-minute entry...I'll finish him and post the photos soon!

Finished!

So i definitely do not recommend you to drop your metal mini on the floor the night before the last day of the painting challenge!



Will try to get him fixed up to post some proper pictures.

I'm not going to finish this month. I got distracted building a wood and brass Napoleonic cannon kit. It's a shame I won't finsh it by today as it would fit the theme well ...

Been trying some new things for this one. Still gonna need some more practice, but I'm pretty happy with the overall effect.



Rest of the pictures in spoilers:

Good luck everyone!

Here's my ancient Vyper:

Great stuff from everyone! I also finished and nearly forgot to take the pictures

Here are my final pics. Rogue Purge crew for Core Space. The purge are an ancient robotic race and my rogue purge have been around long enough to go rogue so figure they fit the theme.

Great work from everyone as always!

Hi All

Sat here painting away with my normal last minute rush and realized I hadn't put the proof pic up yet.

So here he is, Morglum Necksnapper, one of my oldest and favorite models. He was always my go to Warlord. I think I've had him nearly 25 years? (wow)



Hes got most of the paint on I'm now just adding some details, won't have time to do proper free hand banners for him though :(

There's so much amazing stuff this month!

I'm going to try to chuck in a last-minute entry. I'm going to paint a guy who's not only from long, long ago, but also far, far away. Chewbacca from Star Wars, of course.



I've not had much time, as I'm being worked hard by Siege, but I'm hoping to get Chewie into a presentable state tonight, although I might have to take the photos tomorrow morning if that's okay.

I am hoping to finish some of my Necrons tomorrow but if I miss the close of the entries, so be it. At the very least, I have made a start on my Indomitus set!

My own entry flying in under the wire, though if other people need an extra day I might redo these pics as they're a little shiny on this screen. Didn't get the diorama base finished (maths error on the original print meant the minis didn't fit, and I've not had time to redo it) so it's just Geralt in the end, once again at 54mm and based on the look from the game rather than the show. Couple of areas are a little scruffier than I'd like, but in terms of the overall look I'm really rather pleased, given it's mostly different shades of brown and black...



Any thoughts welcome, and if you like it, please toss a vote to your Witcher! (apologies for anyone who now has that bloody song stuck in their heads for the next week )

If anyone needs the extra day just shout, realistically the vote won't be up tomorrow anyway. New round will be though, so see you there.

A typcially last-minute entry from me. This is the man of iron "imperial robot" from Blackstone Fortress. I wasn't sure how to weather it to make it look old without just making it look dirty. Then it got hit by the spatter from a liquid pigment spill and had to be washed and retouched, and then I ran out of time. So it's not my best work



Proof Picture and Final Images in the spoiler below.

Some Ratskins from me this month, relics from a previous age of Necromunda
proof


final pics

Just in the nick of time...


I really like this model, but found myself a little unmotivated this month - we've just re-entered lockdown over here so the family becomes a real priority.
Anyhow, here he is - the red colours haven't photographed well and the pics are very blurred due to the crummy camera I have to use stuck in the house but I am mostly happy with the sword...eh, it is what it is...
Good luck to everyone!







See everyone next month!

Entries are looking great, good luck everyone.

I'm not going to get mine done this time, started back at work and the kids are off school for a couple of weeks.

New round go, I'll leave this one open a few hours more.

Just to let you know, I was just taking the photos of my entry, but we're having to rush my cat over to the vet, so I don't know when I'm going to be able to post them. Today, but it could be later. I don't mind if you close the thread in the meantime, otherwise it'll be a couple of hours or so.

I hope your Cat is Ok Felt

Heres my final Pics, sadly didn't have the time to do the awesome freehand banners I had hoped to do and also the base is just something to keep it standing up atm.

<Runs in panting, holding a briefcase full of papers>

I'm here, I've got my wookie with me. Sorry about the delay.









Not bad considering I didn't even own the model until about 5pm yesterday. I painted him while I was waiting for some gap-filling material to properly cure. I've been really busy. If anyone follows the Siege Studios Instagram, I painted that huge white Ultramarines army that has been appearing on there for the last couple of weeks. I'm now working on two more jobs for them.

Thanks, Midget Gems. I've not got anything particularly good to report about the cat. She's 20 and living on borrowed time, basically. The other cat got into a fight and was bitten so he's having to wear one of those cones on his head. He's a sulky, resentful conehead. The elderly one is the more cheerful by far.

And with that I'll call proceedings to a close as I don't think we're waiting for anyone else. Good work everyone, vote coming Soon.

I just need to take some final photos of mine after gluing his arms back on! Will upload shortly.

.. and done!

Vote is up, everyone should be present and correct, shout if there's an error.

Haha, perfect timing for me to *finally* finish my entry for this. Some Necron Warriors, tried something and not entirely sure it worked out as planned but here it is.
