So with the Larder completed I can leave Level 1 of the dungeon and move on to Level 2... damn you Mike F!!!
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: Ghouls in the Larder! (30 points)
I'm not ashamed to say that the Larder has been troubling me... who buys models of food, or of people eating, for wargames??? Then I saw some other posters with a good idea, and shamelessly stole it... It took a little while to find these guys in my storage room but here they are......and they painted up quite quickly, to match the two others I already had in my Warhammer Fantasy Battle "Vampire Counts" army. As you can see I did I minor conversion to suit the "eating" theme, dremeling out the rock in the ghoul's left hand and replacing it with a severed head that had been hanging around my kitchen in the pen tray (!). Of course a severed human head is a reasonable (and obvious) snack for a flesh-eating ghoul. Some "adult themes" here... pretty racy for GW.I really think this model bears a striking resemblance to a certain US President's personal lawyer! *cough*RUDY*cough*Here are the two new models with their previously painted comrades.

I’ll pass on that diner. Great work.
ReplyDeleteI always like seeing some older models get some love and the conversion definitely adds to the theme. Lovely work!
ReplyDeleteNom, nom, nom... Great work Dal. Someday it would be wonderful to see your Vampire Count army out for an Old School Warhammer foray.
ReplyDeleteExcellent progress on the challenge. Just a few more chambers!
ReplyDeleteLovely skin tone!
ReplyDeleteYou've painted these up truly well, they really look the part.
ReplyDeleteHey Rudy looks great! Excellent finish!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
I'm fairly certain any ghouls reading this would be offended by your comparison.
ReplyDeleteGreat work on these two.
Classic Oldhammer 👍
