Hawkoon Posted September 6, 2023 Report Share Posted September 6, 2023 Hello again. I'm late as usual, and running out of excuses for being so. Anyway... Summer is over, days are getting darker and colder, perfect excuse for spending more time inside painting more miniatures! As I gave a sneak preview of at the end of last month, my local gaming club started up an escalation league, so I'll be painting up more swampfiends the coming month. Next up is Zoraida herself with her totem (or toadem, in my case). So for this months question; what's going on in your communities this fall? And what will you be painting? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moinetbeard Posted September 6, 2023 Report Share Posted September 6, 2023 First model up for me this month is the Alt Huggy model- it's one I've wanted for a while to replace my old 2nd ed drug slug! Pleased with how they came out - they're going in a painting competition at the weekend so fingers crossed! 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimH Posted September 6, 2023 Report Share Posted September 6, 2023 So my first model of the month isn't Malifaux. Instead it's this guy, the Crimson Crocodile... who despite his name is meant to be pale and fleshy. Haven't decided what Faux models to paint up this month, maybe some Swampfiends? I've got an alt Zoraida and Kurgan sitting basecoated as well as a converted Stmupy and some Gators. Not sure how many points I'll be doing this month though with the boardgame components to paint up. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wont be posting much of the stuff I paint from the set, in part because some of them have bits and pieces that wouldn't be appropriate and cause the focus of the challenge is Malifaux.

djmacbest Posted September 7, 2023 Report Share Posted September 7, 2023 September is going to be challenging for me - I'll be on vacation a little more than a week from now, and until then, work will remain quite hellish, and I also have to do my taxes this weekend. So if I'm lucky, I have a realistic chance to get one mini done, so it will have to be a master. Top options are Tara 2, Viks 2, Colette 2 and Parker (1 or 2, both are primed and ready). Any suggestions or thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkoon Posted September 10, 2023 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2023 Here's Zoaraida and toadem ready for phase 2 of the escalation league😁 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MestreGuilderius Posted September 10, 2023 Report Share Posted September 10, 2023 Some of the minis I'll manage to paint this month 3 Corrupted Hounds and the Blood Hunter^^ They were my first attempt at slapchop ever, and turned out quite good for the time I spent on them (approx 2h for the 3 doggos, and about 1.5h for the totem, painting the bases included). Not that much of a fan of this technic, but I admit it can be a breezer when in need of your painting shoot and don't have much time to spend on "lesser" minis xD Hopefully I'll still find time to finish Lelu and Lilitu, and maybe even start Nekima (though that is quite unsure xD). 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daemonkin Posted September 11, 2023 Report Share Posted September 11, 2023 @MestreGuilderius fabulous! I’ve primed some 10Thunder models for this month, monk and last blossom as well as some models to complete my Toshiro henchman hardcore crew. Hope to get more last blossom and monk models completed D. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Gheist Posted September 17, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 17, 2023 okay i had a burst of motivation, so i did my best, i feel like i can be content for once. Somehow Pictures aren't hyper good, but i am planning on taking pictures of all my minis once i am done with the last faction Tiri arrived so i get to carry on.

Diddick Posted September 19, 2023 Report Share Posted September 19, 2023 @Gheist awesome band! I admire your commitment to WRITE in all the pages 🫡 This month I kept working on the Foundry KW (and next month too), this time was Mei Feng's turn, and her totem: I changed her base, bc I love the dynamic posture, but red bricks and metal to me suits more the foundry vibe than wood (the breaking wood sculpt is amazing and I might rebase Ototo with it... 🤔 ) Also bc she's as cool as one can be, she deserved an extra pic with more ambient around ^^ 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moinetbeard Posted September 23, 2023 Report Share Posted September 23, 2023 I have finally finished a project that I've been working on for a few months on and off with my kids. We've made a new board which we'll enter into the "best board" part of the painting competition at UK nationals! So proud of my kids for helping at every stage with this one. They most enjoyed drilling the holes out of the tree bases, applying the snow to the trees and arranging lots of bones in patterns around the stone altar. I learnt how to make homemade snow for this one, which I much prefer to the out of the bottle stuff and is a fraction of the price! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MestreGuilderius Posted September 24, 2023 Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 Finished Nekima last night. For once, happy with the work I pulled off. Even gave a try at nmm (first time ever) for the upward edge of the blade. Wasn't easy at all to say the least 😅 Next in line, last doggo and Nekima2. Moving to the new house in the first days of november, so hopefully I'll manage to finish her up and might even be able to do the Noxious Nephilim ^^ fingers crossed :D 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daemonkin Posted September 25, 2023 Report Share Posted September 25, 2023 @MestreGuilderius Love the deep red on nekima @Diddick Mei Feng is my favourite from tight back in 1st edition. Great work. @Gheist fabulous crew, great cohesion and colour choices. D. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trimasel Posted September 25, 2023 Report Share Posted September 25, 2023 This month is short on time for me so I have done my pledge level as minimum requirement 16cc: Serena Bowman and Vasilisa. Still not sure if I would have time for next month to do both pledge and participate on painting contest(+vacation) ... So might be taken muligan on next month😔 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moinetbeard Posted September 26, 2023 Report Share Posted September 26, 2023 @TimHThat thing is freaky! despite not being Faux it still fits the theme of Zoraida and the Swampfiends! You've captured the fleshy look nicely! @Hawkoon Zoraida and the Toad look great. I love that totem so much - one of my favourite Malifaux models. @MestreGuilderius Amazing work this month - the red on Nekima is absolutely masterful @Gheist Your Linh Ly crew looks amazing. such a variety of models calls for a really vibrant scheme like you've chosen. You've packed so much into these models in terms of little details - spent ages looking at them this morning. @Diddick I've really enjoyed seeing your Foundry models come together - I think your forgeling is the best i've seen. Likewise for Mei - the subtle changes you've made to the base really set her off, bringing in a little colour on the bricks was a great choice. THe background you've created there is amazing as well! @Trimasel Nice work on these two. I particularly like the green you've achieved on Serena's dress! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moinetbeard Posted September 26, 2023 Report Share Posted September 26, 2023 Not a Faux model, but one i will be using in my games for now as a proxy for the Hodgepodge Emissary as I can't get hold of one for love nor money at the moment. Was nevertheless fun to paint and i felt like I nailed the simple basing scheme for my Outcast versatiles. Don;t know if it can count towards my monthly total but i thought i'd post it here anyway. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really know what I dislike about it, but the paintjobs tend to end up more dull than the regular plastic models. Still a fun model to paint though😄 Love your alt emmy. It might not be Wyrd, but it certainly fits the role. And that base looks fantastic! Cork with cracklepaint? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daemonkin Posted September 26, 2023 Report Share Posted September 26, 2023 52 soulstones painted this month and another bunch tidied up or rebased. Won’t count those towards the totals. I am loving the drive and focus each month to get some paint on models that haven’t had the love in my collection. Next month more nephilim!!

Gheist Posted September 26, 2023 Report Share Posted September 26, 2023 hm okay i obviously have too much time on my hand So... that was fun. we are awaiting the advent of the missing friends and then it's time for an increasingly rare YT Video i guess. All in all this month 160SS. Probably personal Highscore 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think yours looks dull at all though. Just crackle paint and Cork for that base. There is also a little cactus behind the rock which you can't see ☺️ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
