Welcome to the Painting Challenge. Here you will find the fabulous, fevered work of miniature painters from around the world. While participants come from every ethnicity, gender, age and nationality, they have three things in common: they love miniatures, they enjoy a supportive community, and they want to set themselves against the Challenge. This site features the current year's event along with the archives of past Painting Challenges. Enjoy your visit and remember to come back soon.

From AdamC - 28mm Valkyrie (5 Points)
One more small offering for this week a Valkyrie from Reaper miniatures its 28mm scale. I had planned on having her as a companion to Thor but didn't have her finished in time for Saturday. I plan to use her as a legend in a Gods of Mortals army.
Its a very nice figure and it reminded me of the Heroine from the original Conan.
OK so they aren't that close in but I tried to make this lady as shinny as that one.
That's the reason for the yellow clothing and gold armor, copper and silver highlights.
The detail on the armor is great far better than my camera can capture but you can get a sense of it in this picture I am really pleased with how the wash worked in this case.
