TheOtherJosh Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 Hello folks and welcome to the Painting Contract for May 2021! 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, Gorechosen, or HeroQuest 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...
RandyRyan Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 I finally finished the Varanguard I pledged back in February... For May I have a few Underworlds warbands that I want to paint, starting with the Crimson Court, then Khagra's Ravagers, then the Wurmspat. Hopefully get them all done! 3 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zilberfrid Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 This month, I'll try to finish my Black Orc team, the rest of the time will be spent printing and painting stuff for d&d, which does include finishing the Ogres from my ogre team and a few unarmoured gnoblars. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Praecautus Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 I will finish Aliens by painting the Powerloader and I will paint the 4 models in the slaves direchasm warband - 1 dedicated to each god. After that I am not sure 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artobans Ghost Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 May target. My son is dropping off 10 warriors and a lord on a Karkadrak. On order is another 16 warriors, a mindstealer Sphyranx and a gaunt summoner. That should bring this unit to 1950 points. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I could paint some aspects of their models better, but it's fine. I hope you and son enjoy painting and playing them! Definitely worth the effort it takes to make them shine! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jymmy Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 I’ve finished the black dragon and the drakespawn chariot (will share photos in a near future).

Arnied3 Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 Forgot to check back in April......typical. Made great progress on Alareille so hoping to finish her this month. Got her base done and most of the main colours finished. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkK Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 Plan is to finish these this month, started them last year, time to pull the finger out and get them done! 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Praecautus Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 Ok do Aliens the board game is completed. Am really pleased to have it done, so satisfying seeing a complete set together. It was fun to paint, I learnt about painting faces, yellow and the use of nuln oil gloss. I also learnt that for this scale of mini don’t fret about picking out every single detail. I have now started the slaves direchasm warband. Making the leader Khorne marked to join my growing Khorne army. So far just done her face and hair 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artobans Ghost Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 My son requested an arid looking armour. Searched arid armour and found an assassins creed pic that looked like the ticket. Here’s the first quick result. I’m really liking it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Praecautus Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 Nice. More slaves warriors. This one will proxy as a Khorne lord on foot. Still need to do the fur and cloak, but really pleased. The models are fantastic to paint 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artobans Ghost Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 @Praecautus Agree☝️ These models are more fun than I ever imagined. Enjoying painting the Slaves immensely. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThalmorRepresentative Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 Finally working on my Idoneth bases! Been pushing this off for a long time, because I wasn't sure how they'd turn out. Though still wip, I'm happy with how they are turning out. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fellman Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 (edited) I will not be able to but this is my goal 2x6 glutons 4 iron guts 4 ledbelchers 6 dogs Edited May 16, 2021 by Fellman 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zilberfrid Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 Modest goals this month. 4 D&D monsters, 6 peasants, and the character for my Roll20 character. No need for a mini, but an excuse to do one. Interesting things: Earth elemental medium form for a friend of mine (start of the sculpt) My Roll20 artificer (mostly Skitarii ranger, but also a Bretonnian Bowman leg, an Escher sword and a head from what I believe is Greatswords) WIP. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artobans Ghost Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 More WIP. Another up side to AoS is that you are not limited to geographical concepts. A Desert Chaos army. Sure thing. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you! An airbrush is definitely a tool that makes some our dreams of painting much easier to achieve lol 😁. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve often found that making unrealistic goals can lead to becoming unmotivated because stuff doesn’t get done. If you get both done, great! If not keep at it next month. We’ll hold you a spot at the table. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
