Well I'm back to the challenge for a 4th time and picking up brushes for the first time in our new house (we moved the end of October). My first entry this year is a Wereboar one the Reaper Bones figures I got with my Bones III kick starter.
I felt this dynamic figure was a good place to start for this monster themed challenge.
Some of the bones sculpts lack detail but I think this one is top notch great musculature a great sense of the figure in motion I can't wait to use him as part of a monster army for a Dragon Rampant game I am Running in January.
The face cam out particularly well though my photography may not have hit the mark. I think I need to put some brown paint around the edge of his base. I looked like I had better coverage last night when I went to bed... not so much this morning.
This fellow looks ready to run straight at and through just about any one. He's done in the 28mm scale but he's a bit large than that may 30mm. I'll call him 5 points to get me started and leave it Curt to decided if he merits a slightly higher award. I hope to have part of an Irish army for you guys sometime over the weekend or next week.
Good luck every one (especially my fellow 'new' parent duellists) I promise I won't post a picture of Evelyn on every post (unless people want me to).

Wonderful looking mini, Adam, and the wereboar is pretty cool too! :)
Seriously, Evelyn looks every picture of a new baby: very happy and blissfully comfortable. Her Dr. Seuss trousers are tres chic!
As to the wereboar, I quite like his pink snout and ferocious tusks. He looks more like 40mm to me, so I'm going to give you 7 points. Well done and welcome back to the Challenge, Adam!
