Vaiuri Posted September 30, 2016 Report Share Posted September 30, 2016 New thread for October is open! Feel free to use this thread to post WIP photos (if you so desire), get feedback, trade ideas and hobby tips as we continue the year into October. When you have completed your pledge, feel free to post it, but I'd like everyone to post at the start of next month (November) with their completed pledge photo and stone value for OCTOBER - this will make it a lot easier for me to keep track of where everyone is up to. Plus, we get to start off subsequent months with some inspirational posts of what people have gotten up to the month before You can also PM me with your completed pledge if you like, and I'll add it to our tracker (to be updated!). Massive shout out to everyone who's been storming through their pledges, fantastic work everyone! I've terribly behind with the tracker, once I get a good hour to get my head down (and a decent internet connection - grrr!) I'll get it updated and uploaded. Apologies for letting it get behind Once again, I'm so happy to see everyone posting pics of their stuff, I'm looking forward to seeing what everyones crews are looking like at the end of this! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bengt Posted September 30, 2016 Report Share Posted September 30, 2016 In September I painted: Mobile Toolkit - 3 SS 2 Large Arachnids - 12 SS Molly Squidpiddge - 15 SS Ponto - 2 SS Philip and the Nanny - 8 SS 3 Crooligans - 12 SS 4 Night Terrors - 12 SS For a total of 64 SS I got some Union Miners on the table, not sure what I'll do after them. Maybe I'll get around to converting up some Mindless Zombies from the TtB kits... Closeups 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prof_bycid Posted October 1, 2016 Report Share Posted October 1, 2016 In September I finished the three flying monkeys from the Dr. Cooper crew. The slate ridge mauler was my already started ride along model. I heard about some steam arachnid summoning schenanigans that were possible with the Malifaux child, so I picked up that one and finished it quickly as well. The monkeys are out of focus, but to be honest I am glad. A bad primer job left the surfaces with a pebbly texture that was had to do much with. My total for September: 3 flying monkeys * 2 SS = 6 SS 1 Malifaux child * 2 SS = 2 SS Total: 8 SS For October, I will focus on getting my Rasputina crew almost finished up. I will be doing the wendigo, snow storm, and the ice golem. Can't wait to get them on the table. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Franchute Posted October 1, 2016 Report Share Posted October 1, 2016 Hello For September, I painted a mechanical attendant (2ss) and a hunter (7ss) for 9ss in total: I'm currently finishing a steam arachnid swarm and after that I may either paint a trapper or Hoffman. Inspiration will tell which decision I will take! Edit: @Bengt I love the color scheme you chose for your arachnids. @prof_bycid Excellent work on the child and the bear! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaiuri Posted October 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2016 I finally updated my tracking sheet! I have no doubt there are mistakes, please PM me if you spot any and I shall correct I've removed myself from the running as my life spiralled out of conrtol and I gave up any hope of painting even a measely 5 stones a month - very disappointed in myself, but I'm really enjoying keeping tabs on what you guys are all up to. Maybe I'll pick up a brush again in the new year and join you once again. Fear not though, I shall maintain the threads and keep adding our details to the tracking sheet so we can all clap ourselves on the back at the end of Feb and be proud of everything we've done! Keep up the great work everyone! Malifaux_Painting_2016.xlsx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TedThunders Posted October 4, 2016 Report Share Posted October 4, 2016 Hey all! It is with some regret that I must join @Vaiuri and bow out of the challenge, as well. Life did run away with me quite a bit lately, and between that and a good period of serious burnout, I was unable to continue to fulfill my pledge. It has been a blast and I am still really impressed with myself for getting so far, and absolutely impressed with all of you still cranking out excellent work every month. I'll be checking in to see all of your progress from time to time. It was a pleasure to be part of this with you all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prof_bycid Posted October 5, 2016 Report Share Posted October 5, 2016 Rust, those gamin are amazing! All three really, but I really like what you did with the gamin. The glowing metal is a nice feature that contrasts with the less colorful but extremely well painted bodies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was feeling really uninspired with painting more all metal models. The glowing metal adds some contrast. Glad you like them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RustAndTheCity Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 I painted two December Acolytes for this month. I've got some other things in progress I'll post at the end of the month. Does anyone know how to resize pictures when you post them from the gallery on this website? They looks a bit big. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife didnt agree with the price though I'll have to try to make my own following @RustAndTheCity's tutorial first.

Viruk Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 Looking really good, nice metallics and great base. I've experimented with a few different light boxes, made one on my own too but Foldio just gets the job done - I instantly get perfect lighting and the setup is fast and simple. Not cheap for sure but I've never regretted splurging on it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamby Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 I looked at that, then realised i could probably make something similar at work for less but have been lazy and not made it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
