Nice work both!

@Moolet: There's honestly no 'technique' to it, it's just GW's Blood For The Blood God applied in the relevant areas. If there's any skill involved, it's purely working out where the blood could conceivably be and how much is appropriate to the composition, all of which just comes with practice. I'll recommend grabbing a pot of BFTBG, though, it's great stuff!

@BC: Sorry to hear about the accident, hope you're doing OK!

Sorry to hear that Buttery. You're not having a great time of it at the moment! Hope you're on the mend quickly.
Yeah, we're okay, we both walked away, though the car was entirely written off. It was dual liability so there's that.

Lovely work everyone! I wish I had time between school and work (and World of Tanks... guilty). Definitely one theme that I would of loved to work on.

Gods? There are no gods. Merely existences, obstacles to overcome.

Glad you are ok BC, hope you heal up soon, might be the break from painting will help you enjoy it more when you come back to it.

That entry looks really rather good Para, the blood and weathering does combine really well together.

Nice entry Mootlet is does fit the Halloween theme well. you can see a bit more of the change in colours in that final pic.

Titlemanscrest - that looks like it could form a very nice diorama, will be watching with interest to see it develop.

Here are the final pics. I forgot if collages counted as one or multiples. I used it as a device to zoom in on the details, so i am making the argument that it counts as one? If I cant have all of the above please let me know and i will give you the desired formats.

Excellent entry, looks ace

Lovely stuff! I'm afraid each pic in a collage does count towards the five allowed, so you can either take the collage and one other pic, do 5 individual ones or just do a new collage with the full 5.

Due to being in a state of communion with Nurgle (flu) I was not able to finish my entry. Good Luck to everyone who did!

Hopefully my entry will be a good addition to the ones so far.

Really nice work on the Terrain Tittlemanscrest, took me a while to notice the spider under the rock, I was wondering where it had gone

Your skin tones are always spot on Bottle, Nice Aberrants

Got mine done, I quite liked how it turned out, tthey are different anyway (like most of my oddball creations). I've learnt a few things on arm positioning and washing with other colours which I'll hopefully be able to use in future entries. I wanted to make it look like these models where mostly Orks with some Tyranid showing, (2nd Generation - Hybrid Genestealer) This group of Orks rather likes the extra arms and claws making them more fighty so have chosen to embrace the mutations. Hope you like them anyway

I'm away for a few days now so will catch up on the voting when I'm back.

Blood Sacrifice to Khorne






Finished up the October entry. Went for something with a Satanic feel in honor of this month's theme/halloween, and built this bad boy on a cork base in the shape of a pentagram. Unfortunately I was unable to get a good picture of the base now that the model's glued on. Oh well.
