Basically, no characters/commanders. Other than that, it's all fine.

Quick question since I'm thinking ideas through, would an Ork boy or grot dressed up as a b-rated superhero be acceptable? or is that too much hero and not enough everyday?

Basically, once the challenge is live post a pic of the model you're entering unpainted/unassembled, go away and paint it, come back, post the finished pics in the same thread and you're done/ See the current thread for an example of how it works.

First of the month, as usual! I like to give people time to plan, hence the gap between poll and challenge.

No need to create additional profiles if you don't want to, you can just post up the entries and so long as I know whose is whose, it's all good.

Want this written down somewhere, but here will do I guess.

For June, how about "Get me over there" - could be as big as some kind of transport, or as small as some dude pointing

Great, I have a Griffin Praetorian Guard unit (Rackham Confrontation pre-painted plastic, unfortunately) that could do with some love.

Er, does a Musician or Standard-bearer count as a hero-type or a regular bloke?
