Hi all

This is my final entry, I was going to name him as the Tanith Master Sniper 'Mad' Hlaine Larkin but I figured I'd let you all decide if he deserves that honor (and if I've capture the fluff right for him). If not he can just be a generic Tanith sniper. I bit of a change for me since I'm used to Orks.

I'm away for the the next 2 weeks so Good Luck to everyone I'm looking forward to seeing some finished entries. Hopefully I'll be able to view them properly and vote on my phone.


I haven't got the funds for a proper camera yet also a massively annoying mishap happened right at the end, without noticing I got glue on my finger and stuck myself to his head. Which is why the left side of his head has some weird lines on (my fingerprints), I was too short on time to try and fix it.

Enjoy

Nice job with the camo and the base looks like you really put some time into it.

Looking very nice indeed!

Great job MG. Good to see Mad Larkin up and at 'em . You reminded me of the books so have downloaded and started rereading them all again cheers!

Some great entries this month as well! My fav so far is Kustomer D's diorama! Captures the theme perfectly. Well done!

I have recently ventured into Malifaux and decided to paint up one of my Resurrectionists for this month's challenge. Model is called Sebastian (plastic version) and he works the morgue, sneaking about with a giant saw. I'll be trying out some new techniques including painting blood splatter by flicking paint from a dry brush (watch that big white apron) and experimenting with mixing in red and blue when painting skin (he has a very big face). It will be fun to see how he turns out!

Proof: Primed Sebastian

love that saw and what looks like a massive cheesy grin!

So, I've finished on time after all!

Here is my sneaky Djanbazan Sniper from the Haqqislam faction of Infinity. A very effective model with his Multi-Spectral Visor and Regeneration! Every since I first saw it, I knew I wanted to do something special for the base. Hope you like it!







Great to see the other entries. Inspiring stuff!

Really liking your sniper Arclaw Definitely fits the bill!

Ah, I love the Djanbazan! An excellent spot of paint on one of my favorite minis!

Some cool stuff from those finished entries!

@Zoat: your painting style should definitely suit Malifaux!

Almost done, Looks like I’ll be able to finish by the deadline. I was worried about that, lots of stuff going on this month. Just need to look him over once more, then base and glue the backpack on. Not as happy with him as some of my previous entries, but he’s a workable table-top.

Need to get some new lightbulbs for the photo shoot. And maybe a new backdrop. Not sue how well he’s show up on white.

Here is my final of my Pathfinders, the Shadowsun conversion just wasn't working

@Arclaw: That is an amazing sniper! I had forgotten about that model, but now I want it again! Darn, my wallet hurts...

@Paradigm: I hope you are right! I am really looking forward to painting some of the models in my Crew. I am also looking forward to get some games! Never have time for 40k these days, but Malifaux seems to play really fast.

@Januine: I agree, that grin is just lovely!

Sebastian WIP (grin completed):

Lovely work, zoat!

There's some great stuff here!

My entry is a trio of the old Epicast Termites, which are based on the old Epic Termite Tunnelers. This being mid-90s resin, the level of detail didn't increase much between epic scale and 28mm! Still, I had them on hand, and I'm painting them a sassy red and yellow to match my Praetorian Regiment. If I ever played them, it would probably be with the Hades breaching Drill rules, which while certainly not "stealthy" is... unexpected.

Consider me in.

Derp, think I missed out on this one... Are we still doing polls for the next month or has that be streamlined/changed?

Wish I had seen this earlier. I have Ninjas that need painting. Great job on the Haqqislam sniper.

Great work Arclaw. What did you use for the tan colour on the right arm btw?

There is a poll up somewhere GrimDork, I think "mechanized" is the winner already though.

I also doubt I am going to make this one, but I might at least get the LSS done v0v

Ahh mechanized... not sure I'll be as down for that one but ahh well, I can still pop by and check out the entries.

Well, it's 'rise of the machines', so anything robotic, cyborg or otherwise mechanical will do!

Close, it's "Rise of the machines", can include cybords, augments, tech, vehicles, etc.
Bit more scope.

Love the drills! I picked up the Hades Breaching Drill on Saturday and wish I'd grabbed it in time for this contest.

I've got too many ideas to pick from next month.

Ahh, I'll find the post then. Surely I've got some kind of robots. I mean I've got some Deadzone Cyphers if nothing else right.

In under the wire.

Every time I come to this thread I wonder why I bother painting, compared to the rest of you. But it does inspire me to try new things, and work harder to improve. So, to all of you, thanks!

@Anath'lan: I wouldn't beat yourself up too much matey- That's a cracking paint job you've done there!

Cheers! That's a combination of gw steel legion drab, agrax earthshade and vallejo bone white on the arm.

Thanks mate.

Final pic time. Only kinda happy with this guy, but part of that is the finecast bits I noticed never got cleaned up right. Oh well. He’s at a decent table-top, so can see some use as soon as I paint up his four friends.

Looks kind of like winter tundra camo, snowy but with some brown showing due to melts and stuff. Good stuff.

Anath'lan looks good to me! Cool model, and solid paint work. Dark colors seem to fit the sculpt well too.

Aww heck, I'll give it a shot. I'll enter with my Nomad Zeros with e/mauler. She was undercoated white and had been sitting with a bit of grey base coat till now. Adding color as we speak people, as we speak.
