I was trying to figure out a way to suggest MAYhem, and that probably works..
.

Small but deadly?

MAYhem sounds fun. The wordplay is an added bonus.

Ooo, I like MAYhem.

In the same vein Spring into action?

Ta for the suggestions, folks. Worked a few of them into May's options:

Choose mayhem. do it

Need to pick up the pace, next month should probably try starting before the last week

I'm slowly getting there, highlights and basing to do.

Okay, I'm officially done:

It feels good to finally get this done. I wouldn't have done it without the little push from these challenges. Thanks guys.

Here's my finished entry:

Done, just need to work out the final pictures...


Good luck everyone,

Catchya,
Arakasi

Finished!

Zentraedi Regult Tactical Battle Pods

(Epic buildings for scale)

Here's the complete zombie horde:


I still have to decide which five to actually enter for the competition.

Finished my entry, painting the rest of the neophytes currently....Any early favorites from my entry that you might want to see closer images of?



Went a little "Non-codex" compliant with the mixed firearms (Need more Templars with zeal and chainswords to make the fist + Pyreburner work in game)

Also, I know this is totallllllly not a tactical load out but..... come on... THE RULE OF COOL

They look very templary. Exemplary templary? Too far?

Any at; they look good. Nice crisp white and I like the red on the officer.

My own entry is running a bit late due to a new puppy in the house. I have negotiated time tonight to try and finish a few raptors for a half decent entry.

Done.

I think you picked the front row well. Throw in the Neophyte for some visual diversity and that's the five models sorted out. In my (highly subjective) opinion anyway.

I really like the individualized heraldry and spots of color like the yellow bolter.

I've managed to narrow my entry down to three thematically-related zombies, but they refuse to photograph well. I'm going to step away and try again tomorrow morning.

Just about finished in time. Nearly got sandbagged by the metals, so they're not finished to the level I'd intended, but the model is done!

The Darksaber axe wasn't entirely intentional, but looked too fun to change. I may or may not have been watching the Mandalorian at the time.

Lot of nice work this month. Almost there!

All done here:


So this guy was a lot of work, but fun. Throwback to the old RT TDA captain, so I took a lot of cues from that. The shoulder pad is from the old “How to paint space marines” pamphlet as the markings for a lieutenant commander. This was the old RT rank of the second in command in the chapter (CMs were just Commanders back then) so I figured it would fit for the 1st company captain in the modern structure. The quartered tilting shield is from the belt buckle heraldry that was on the original model. Tons if little detail on this guy, as befitting a captain of his stature.

I think this brings me up to 13 UM captains painted. I might have a problem...

And a “Then and now” pic: (not for entry)

Almost done, but I still gotta finish the base and touch up some details:


Probably gonna have the pics of the finished thing up tomorrow, I hope that's okay.

Great entries all around! I finished mine: Jules, the Living Saint. It's the reborn form my canoness will take, if we ever restart our crusade 40k campaign

With twenty-three zombies between the two sets, it was hard for me to narrow my entry down. I thought about going for the grossest five, but ended up going with Patient Zero and the medical professionals whom he first infected:





I'm rather proud of the IV bag and the flatline on the heart monitor, as well as the protective yellow booties on the doctor. I wish there had been a head with a nurse's cap, but so it goes.

JoshInJapan - IV looks great. Maybe submit a closeup of that ekg line so we can see it better?

Viterbi: I like the different colors you have going there.

Nevelon: Capt looks great, especially standing next to his “old” form.

Will try to take some pictures shortly for the submission.

Viterbi: That's a really seamless conversion.
JoshInJapan: The medical equipment on patient zero is really well done.
Mr Nobody: Is that stomper playing a guitar? Nice work on the rusted yellow scheme.
Nevelon: I like the old-school details you included on the updated mini.

I wasn't sure I'd get an entry finished this month, but I have. A classic metal mini reborn and remade in modern plastic - the Noise Marine.


Proof pic and more pictures in the spoiler.

With some assistance from the gallery, I present my finished entry! Reborn Primaris Squad - I'll have to take a picture of my firstborn to show the progress/contrast!

I’m so close but can’t quite finish tonight. Emergency puppy vet visit cut into my planned painting time. Could I impose on the court for a short extension?

Has my support its a BH in the UK so don't think it will be too big an issue.

Heres my scratch built Warkopta, came out pretty well I think will put it on a flying base and take better pics tomorrow

I honestly wasn't sure what I would get done this month. I started off pretty strong in the first few weeks in terms of productivity, but really petered out near the last couple of weeks; feeling really tired and bored of painting 28mm and 40mm figures (seems it's all I've really been doing for the past few years).

I had a couple of MCP pieces kind of hovering around the conceptual idea of rebirth; my initial thought was Iron Man or Warmachine, but given that I'd already done Hulkbuster last month, I decided that to go a different route.

Falcon, reborn as the new Captain America.
