The 1st of April is Under The Couch's 4th birthday, and as has become a birthday custom, we're launching our next painting competition.
The theme this time around is "Fear the Darkness."
What we're looking for is miniatures themed around the darkness: things that go bump in the night, a soldier kitted out for skulking in the dark, a wizard holding his glowing staff on high (with corresponding fancy on-source lighting effects), or anything else that you might find lurking midway down a dark alley.
The comp runs until the end of the month, with the winner receiving their choice of a Warhammer 40K Battleforce, a WHFB Battalion box, or an Under The Couch custom conversion at up to $150 value.
Full details and rules can be found here.
And for the curious, past competition entries can be found in the Under The Couch gallery here.

Unfortunately I'm brutally busy. Sounds cool though.

"That is THEIR stuff." "THEY'RE crappy converters."
"I put it over THERE." "I'll go to the store THEN."

So... time's up, and the entries are now online in the UTC Gallery, awaiting judging.
Thanks to all who entered. It's always interesting to see how people interpret a given theme
