The Analogue Hobbies Painting Challenge

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 BenitoM - More British Paratroopers Arriving to the Landing Zone (20 points)

A second “stick” dropping on the landing zone. Continuing with my British Airborne platoon project for this year’s Challenge, I add today two more leaders (another "horn blower) plus a radio operator and a medic.

The four models are 28mm Warlord metals from the British Airborne Command blister. They have been painted following the steps of the “how-to” guide published in my blog yesterday.

Note that the medic features a Red Cross armband (not clear in the photo), from the very complete decal set included in the British Airborne plastic box, also from Warlord.

With this entry I bag another 20 points (4 models x 5 points each) in my personal score.

Now on to prepare my first model for the 'What a Tanker!' contest.

Two entries in two days? You're on a roll Benito!

I like the nice crisp lines to your brushwork on these figures, Mr. M, especially the running medic and the leader leaning back blowing his hunting horn. Very dynamic and beautifully painted.

Looking forward to seeing your upcoming armour entry for the 'What a Tanker!' contest.
