I love this idea. I also imagine some nice ponchoes. The kelemorph of GSC needs some good opponents to rebel against.

Changing up my entry, as I'm just not feeling the Troll this month. Instead, I'll enter these Arco-Flagellants:

As usual when I have a larger group, I'll paint them all and pick the best five as my entry. I should be able to get this done as I have incentive beyond this challenge; I'm planning to use these in a tournament in a couple of weeks.

My armies (re-counted and updated on 11/1/23, including modeled wargear options):
Dark Angels: ~15000 Astra Militarum: ~1200 | Adeptus Custodes: ~1900 | Imperial Knights: ~2000 | Sisters of Battle: ~3500 | Leagues of Votann: ~1200 | Tyranids: ~2600 | Stormcast Eternals: ~5000

Hi all, I've decided to join this month as well after finding some super sweet tiny Vampires to print. They are from Forest Dragon for anyone interested in checking them out
The mini was originally 10mm but I've scaled it up by 50%. I can take a scale shot to the "original" size later on, but belive me they are super tiny.
The plan is to give him red armor, black cloak and a few gold details to finish him up. I think it will be fun to try painting something at this scale

Proof:



And red armor is already done:

Your colour work is always impressive, Freya, and that's no exception! That red armour, glorious!

As for giving it away, if I'm not mistaken that's a print, so just print another! What else are these machines for?

No idea what I'm painting this month, motivation is kind of low at the moment. But, as ever, I'm sure I'll come up with something!

from the base up it's about 9 inches? I suppose if you wanted to field it as a demon prince it would be an option. About that same size. Why do you ask? Need one?

Late entry!

Not sure I'm going to be able to compete in terms of quality with what's been finished so far, but I want to see if my lazy/drybrush en grisaille method works on this menacing killer:

Just curious. The model seems really large, but there isn't anything in the photo to provide scale. 9" is much bigger than I thought-- I don't have any place to keep models that size.

Going to see if I can do a one-night paint on this little guy. Nothing fancy, just a quick 3D-print I made to test out some printer settings.
