TheOtherJosh Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Hello folks and welcome to the Painting Contract for October 2020! If you don't know the rules they are: Each month you post an amount of models that you agree to try to paint/build/convert/sculpt. This can be terrain or models for Age Of Sigmar, Warcry, Blood Bowl, Blitz Bowl, Warhammer Underworlds, Warhammer Quest Silver Tower / Shadows Over Hammerhal, or Gorechosen. On the 28th of the month the contract closes and you can then post your progress images so that they can be critiqued, shared and boasted about. It is a great way to get involved in the community and to get inspiration. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone share their progress! Enjoy! @Mohojoe& @TheOtherJosh & special thanks to @Kramer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Red King Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 If I can submit a model I should have already finished than I have my half complete "forest zombie dragon" mounted by a wood elf waystalker. It's my take on a wood elf style "dreadlord on black dragon" for my Living City army. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I’ve a bunch of those half finished projects ... cultists cultists everywhere .... and those last couple figures from silver tower .... and the boxes of unassembled plastic.)

Eulailah Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 I'll end my Kharadron Warcry warband (10 arkanaut and 6 skyduardins). Hopefully I'll also finish my Seraphon realmshaper, which is midway done! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jymmy Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 This month I will see to finally end the gloomspite endless spells. Also: - 10 stabbas (recently painted 5) - Loonboss on giant squig - 6 Sneaky Snufflers - Skraggrot - 6 Executioners Probably won´t finish all, but at least make considerable progress 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flemingmma Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 3d printed rather than aos, tried out the comic book style again, just waiting on the diorama base to dry to assemble the whole deal 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flemingmma Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 I need to make another lightbox to do it justice, but here's the diorama 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elves are the best Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 I pledge to finish 10 blood reavers I am new to painting so don’t expect too much. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodiger Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Going to do my Human Blood Bowl team. An American friend I play with supports the Carolina Panthers so I'm going to paint them in their black kit. Which works out quite well as I was thinking of painting them black anyway.

kaaras Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 I will complete the initial construction of my Seraphon display army by building 8 Saurus Knights and another Start Collecting Seraphon box. All that remains to make a 2K army is a box of Terradons and a Stegadon (which haven't been in stock forever it seems). For reference, the lizards will look something like this: Or maybe this: or a combination. Or something completely different. For the display board, something like this: Maybe. Lots of decisions to be made but I want to do water effects and enough land to be able to have the army stand on... I will be starting a blog and maybe some videos if I can get that paint scheme right. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s going to look amazing! maybe have a look at Louise sugden’s Instagram feed for inspiration on painting in that bright style. That helped me a lot when I tried my bright aetherwings. https://instagram.com/savage_ork_guy?igshid=10g4pu2i6n5je Edited September 30, 2020 by Kramer 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh that’s gorgeous indeed. I must admit though that I find it so much harder than the dark and grimy style I usually like. It’s a good exercise. But I’m forcing my way throughy last four aetherwings in that style. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is probably my best use of that scheme. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ggom Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 I shall paint 2 witch aelves to completion. Anything on top of that is just a bonus, but likely also will: Finish another Khinerai, Layer in undercoats on a bunch of Daughters of Khaine now that I’m nearing the end of my current batch. Maybe get a start on a character... Morgwaeth or a Medusa is looking like a fun switch up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightbox Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 This month I would ideally *fingers crossed* like to build an anvil of apotheosis hero or two for my slaves to darkness. I would also like to finish a squad of chaos knights and finalize my colour scheme. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artobans Ghost Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 I got more done than I though last month. Still working on the van dusted hunters. will pledge them this month for sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twisted Firaun Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 not much this month, just trying to finish last month's contract(college got to me). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cayce Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 Hi there. I’m new to the painting contract. This month I pledge to finish my Namarti Reavers (which are already most of the way there) and paint the Leviadon. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Red King Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 Update on the dragon. It's nearly finished. Just needs some highlights on the bones and flesh as well as a glaze on the bloody bits. Any more experienced painters have any advice on the last and most important step though, freehanding some butterfly esque markings on the wings (like the forest dragons of old) Pic for example since butterfly is a broad term.
