So this one is my turn I guess. It is October, which means you could also celebrate Orctober or Spooktober - or both!
I already finished two Orks some ten minutes ago, and I would like to get some more Greenskins for both WHF and 40K done later this month. The Ogre train will keep rolling as well, and I also want/need to get a Wight King finished for a game near Halloween... and maybe some more infantry of the undead variety too.
Anyway, I hope you all have a good month ahead of you and can finish the odd mini or two!

I don't have any weekends this month due to running a festival, so maybe I can do smaller things after work on the week days
So for Orctober I'm pledging
5 custom banners (ideally I'd do a lot more)
5 boar boys
Wurzag on a boar
All my usual caveats of raising standards of previous paint jobs / bases, but never promising to be actually any good š¤£

This month I have a commission to finish, along with some more Close Quarter Battle figures for a campaign that we're starting. And maybe more squats and/or Albionites.  |

I pledge 2 completed minis this month. One will be a touched up Hoodhorn the Rabbit(Beast)lord the other will be a quirky but characterful mini I have dubbed the 'crab feeder' as I enjoyed that name from GOT.

I will finish the 85 Clanrats I came close to finishing in September.
After that, I'll do something more fun, so either my first Lizardmen - Kroxigor probably - or I'll paint some Skaven Blood Bowl models.

Hoodhorn the Rabbitlord ready for battle. 1/2 complete. I really like the colours on that blade. Care to share your process š Thanks very much. Initially the blade was painted a relatively dull silver, so leadbelcher with a slight nuln oil wash. Then the blade was thoroughly washed with the amazing GW Contrast paint Aethermatic Blue which I've been very impressed with. A mate who does paint commissions recommended it and he doesn't really like many GW paints. A couple of random patches were given more Aethermatic blue to further darken them. Final step was I have an ancient Gryphonn Sepia pot which has a tiny bit left in it and is so old it comes out very glossy. That was dabbed on some parts to give those bits a slight yellow tint. Pretty random overall but happy with the end result. Some more photos are in my main painting thread. eefl.freeforums.net/thread/117/grandmasterwangs-random-thrips?page=77#post-66578 |

5 Outriders that Iām calling done. I made the mistake of undercoating 4 of this batch in adverse weather so they were horrible to paint, hence give them the bare minimum paint job to finish them!  |

The Crab Feeder searches for morsels. Model 2/2, October 23 painting challenge complete. where are the eyes? it's searching by smell? so creepy! we are only halfway through the month. How about two more models? I'm going to try and finish another model this month. It's been a good hobby month so far. It only had tiny slits for eyes, no pupils so I'm thinking it has great smell as well as hearing to find food. A mate actually asked an interesting question, "Does he grow his shell or just take new/better ones he finds?" After pondering I'm thinking he grows his shell but wouldn't be against the idea of an 'upgrade' if he found a suitable target....or victim. |
