I am still working on Baharroth so it might be two...and I have a Jetbike Seer that I am rewarding myself with for finishing all my Eldar, so maybe all three. Decisions, decisions.

Sculpted a butt and some thighs with greenstuff. Well outside of my comfort zone, but I think it turned out okay.



Added some arms and weapons:



And a head, purity seal, and grenades:







All in all, not the most dynamic or exciting pose, but at least I didn't completely disgrace myself.

Disappointed, but I don't think I'm going to have time to enter this month. I was going to do Eldrad, or potentially some farseers/warlocks, but I'm losing the first third of the month to family commitments, then house-sitting for the second third. I don't think a third of a month will be enough to come up with something I'd be happy enough to submit, so, yeah, that's probably me out. :/

I guess Eldrad is mainly black paint, so perhaps he wouldn't be too complicated. I'll see when I have some free time. Otherwise, good luck to everyone! Can't wait to see what you all come up with.

Snap a proof pic. If you get it done, then you can just stick it up here along the final.

Great looking work from everyone so far. I especially like the darker look Fuegan by CB.

Here is Mr Grimm so far;



Still lots to do, and I'm not sure that I am going to be able to pull off the effect I'm going for. The details aren't deep enough for me to be able to create realistic shadows to offset the brighter highlights on the other side, but I'll keep going and hope I can pull it off.

@Captain Brown: A nice moody rendition of Fuegan there.
@ Mothsniper: That's a cool red squiggly thingy. Plastic effect parts are common in gunpla kits, but aside from the necron's glowy rods I've rarely seen them used in miniatures.

@Freya; what colour(s) are you using to get that blue/grey? Ahriman has a dead Space Wolf on his base and I need to figure out how to paint him.

Perfect category, gave me the excuse I needed to finish making the model! I might have named this guy by the time he's painted, but it's more likely that I'll have completely forgetten to do that, so:

Love that sorceror conversion, it looks fantastic!

If I had the time, I might finish of my autarch conversion for this month. Don't think I'm going to, though.

I’m probably going to dig out my Zombicide Invader box and paint up the Steven Hawking, Rick, and Doc Brown models. Probably do Morty and Marty Mcfly time willing.

The fang, Russ grey, fenrisian grey. The GW special. I airbrushed the three consecutively with mixing the colors as I highlighted.

Huge range of stuff this month, lots of cool ideas.

Freya, with that pose and your Lady Wolves, you really need some long flowing hair. Do you have a head picked out?

Neave Blacktalon's head from the AoS Stormcast Eternals range would work really well. She has a braid, though.

I'm probably going with the second from the left at the bottom row of these heads.

Buuuut if I do that I need to do some custom green stuff hair which I'm trying to avoid... so... officially I haven't chosen yet but I'll be figuring that out soon. Hopefully.

They are nice looking heads, aren't they? I have a set in my bits box waiting for me to start putting my sororitas army together. The only thing, though: they all look pretty asian to me, even the so called 'caucasian' ones. At least that's how they look to my eyes.
