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 Dallas: Female Fighter for the Sorceress (25 points)

Here's one of the great female figures from the old Metal Magic range, now cast and sold by Midlam Miniatures. I love their female figures - they're the opposite of the chainmail bikini trope, just women dressed in no-nonsense armour and adventuring clothing. I think this figure resembles a young Lily Tomlin (!)

This model actually came out of the mold with two swords, but I thought that was a bit silly, so I swapped the other sword for a shield. The shield decoration is from a GW decal sheet.

So with this offering to the Sorceress, I'll take a teleport past the Shrine to the Oubliette. I've got a plan for the Shrine but the Oubliette model is already painted so I'll do that room first.
