The purpose of this poll is to determine which of the above evil characters will be the painting challenge for the month of November. The poll will run untill 18:45PM on October 24th GMT+1, leaving everyone with a short amount of time to go out and get the materials they might need participate next month.

Please note - the winning choice is not what you must paint next month, only what is preferred, you are still more than welcome to paint something else similar if you haven't got the correct miniature (for example, if Amdur is chosen and you don't have an Amdur miniature in time, you're permitted to paint up something similar for the challenge instead - for example, an Easterling Captain).

I chose Sauron as he has been staring at me, begging for a paintjob, for far to long and this would be a good occasion.

I chose Sauron. One of the projects I'd always wished to do was paint up Sauron and the fallen Elendil/Isildur that comes with him, and stick them both in a WotR cavalry base to make a quick, effective diorama. Alas, I never purchased Sauron, and now am restricting my GW purchases only to certain hobby supplies. But gosh, I'd really like to see a bunch of people do that. The other reason I chose Sauron was because it would give a more unified painting competition as far as I'm aware--you would essentially be limited to the Dark Lord or the Necromancer as competition miniatures. There's been a lot of variety in the painting competitions lately, which I've quite enjoyed, but I think it would be nice to see a gallery of Sauron, Sauron, Sauron, to give a better comparison of the entries.

If Saruman wins will Sharkey do - he's the only version I haven't done?

I've changed my vote to the orc shaman as Amdur looks like a non starter :shock:

At least Saruman is no longer winning (I'm saying this because there was alraedy a wizard one in which lots of him were already pianted and a repeat would be boring!), but why a Shaman, I have 4 of them fully painted.

DMS, Amdur's doing better thanDurburz, Gorbag and Hasharin and would be on par wuith Suladan if you didn't. My AMdur's got a nice white cloak

That's one of my 4 painr=ted Shamans, I also have both the normal on foot variants and the Morannon Orc one, I don't have anymore,but if it did win, would some other orc be a suitable alternative?

If the orc shaman won, the goblin shaman wouldn't work right?

I hope its not Saruman for 2 reasons ..... 1. Painting Saruman is seriously hard!! and 2. I've done all but Sharkey and I don't really feel like painting him yet
COME ON ORC SHAMAN!!!!!
