Samoht- you've caught "new bolg"s face perfectly. Well done!

Woah! Thomas has his game face on for this challenge.

I'm gonna have to up my game in future methinks. Very good likeness to movie Bolg there. Colour me impressed :yay:

Hi samoht,

that Bolg looks really incredible, as if he walked out of the film!

Here's my entry: My viking (dunlending) camp!

The armature on the right was for this one:

Now I have a question: I've started on my other two dunlendings already some time back, but the last days I have almost completely reworked one of them and the other one is still very WiP. Can I enter them as well?

Here is todays "progress" on the older sitting one:

Cheers,
Bennet

Some beautiful sculpts indeed in this thread so far.

My question is - is there a May painting challenge running as well?

Kev is on holiday so I envisage a May challenge will be up and running on his return.

Numenor Command Proof

Lord of Winterfell · **Posted:** Sun May 11, 2014 11:02 am

Used my phone as my camera is in the shop!

I got carried away and built the standard bearer without a proof pic...

I have included him anyway just in case he can count :roll:

If not then just the captain...

Numenor command

- Originally two Numenor Bowmen
- Removed weapons, hands & quivers
- Attached new weapons & Shield
- Attached pointing finger...Charge!

It gives quite a bit of character to my Numenorian force...which I will eventually paint...

I know captains can't have spears in their wargear...but it looks cool

Wow, very effective conversions, I like especially the captain!

I am not sure, what I will enter in the end, but before I forget it here is the proof picture of my latest sculpt, the viking berserker. Not that I think I have any chance against Bolg, but I want to enter...

I will enter the final pictures, when I am sure, which one I will take.

Guys, it is great to see lots of participants, but the rules in the original post are not being adhered to by some. In particular:

2.
All "proof-pictures" MUST either have the announcement-screen of the running challenge in it's background, or contain a small note with the announced theme and date written on.

3.
Your final work must stay UNPAINTED and ideally contain 4 pictures; showing FRONT, BACK, LEFT and RIGHT side.

The date is required in the proof pic to show that your work is current and done within the same timeframe as the other entrants. Unpainted pics are required as they show off your puttywork more clearly, and do not influence the voting process by being either poorly or excellently painted (which could potentially cost or gain votes respectively).
The rules are there to ensure that the competition is fair and even amonst all participants. Please bear this in mind when submitting your challenge entries. Thanks

BeforefI forget to post them, here are the pictures of the Dunlending berserker:

Lots of WiP pictures can be found in the second issue of the Skirmisher:

Well the time shot past for this, I was intending on doing something. Oh well, got to get a Diorama done!

Well done to the guys who have done something so far, it all looks tops!
