Welcome to the July Painting Challenge. This month will be ......

Image





A maximum of 2 models can be entered in the challenge and the following combinations of models are acceptable from ANY faction of Middle Earth.

Hero
Unnamed Captain


plus one of the following

Banner
Hornblower
Drummer
Taskmaster
Second hero
(must be from same faction as first hero)

1. To enter the painting challenge, the miniature/s you are painting must not be painted before starting and picture proof must be shown of the miniature 'pre-painted' (unprimed, undercoated or if you are repainting and old miniature - in its' original paint scheme) otherwise your entry will not be eligible.

2. You may join the painting challenge in progress at any time, but must submit photographs of the completed miniature by midnight GMT of July 31st 2015. WIP images are welcomed and encouraged. A maximum of 4 photos per model of your completed entries please, this allows you to show your miniatures off from front, back and each side which is more than enough. If you would like to compile more than four pictures into one file it is ok to do that

Pictures of completed models must be submit using a third party hosting site such as photobucket or imageshack. Pictures submit by attachment will not be eligible for the vote. Any problems PM me.

3. Miniatures that are completed in time will be eligible to win the challenge. The challenge winner will be decided by the vote of the OR community. The community will choose one winner and one runner-up from the completed miniatures. Votes should be cast not simply on painting skill, but on merit, including creativity, application of painting techniques, artist improvement, etc. There is no prize available for the winners of this challenge, the challenge is solely for community participation and as an incentive for people to reduce their backlog and improve their painting skills.

4. With the introduction of The League Winners from the previous month are now eligible to enter and win consecutive challenges without penalty.

Good luck and have fun!

Those are some beautiful models MMS.

Keep up the good work.

Could someone kindly explain the term faction to me please? I'm assuming that it's the same type of background? So would this mean that I could paint Faramir and Pippin in his Gondor armour, but not fellowship Pippin, say?

Cheers for the clarification.

To be honest I'd allow fellowship pippin and faramir to. i use the word faction pretty loosely and to try and avoid entries like sauron and say lurtz being entered. Don't read too much into the wording.

I originally wanted to enter one of my Ringwraiths for the challenge, but I realised that my painting skills need some practice after my long hobby break. I hope to use these models to help me regain my confidence before I continue with my other projects. Good luck to everyone else this month!

Cheers,

I'm entering with Elrond and an elven hero that I can't remember how to spell. I'll have to make a profile for her or use her as an elven captain.

Here are my Merry and Pippin. Sorry for the photo quality. I'll upload a better quality photo when the weather improves, if that is allowed.

@Dallo - I'll wait a couple of days before putting the vote up and give you chance to get some pictures that you are happy with.

Well done to all those finished. August challenge is up.
