Bi-weekly Duel Update - Games Workshop Minis Duel - Update #3

With 6 weeks of the challenge behind us, it's time to once again review the running in the GW minis side duel. After the initial frenzy of painting over the holiday period, it seems that our duelists have settled into a steady pace and are aiming to continue to slowly build up their scores. This is a marathon, not a sprint after all. I'm fairly confident that we'll see more big changes before all of this is done however.

From the previous update:
Barks - 15
Codsticker - 40
DrQ - 260
GregB - 0
Paul O'G - 107 (with apologies for missing points awarded by a minion last time)
PaulS - 147
Reilly O'G - 430
StuartL - 591
TeemuL - 152

And now for the current scores:

Barks - 320 Points
A massive increase in points due to a horde of goblins, some Riders of Rohan and a very skull-tacular graveyard. Barks has certainly made up for his slow start with some big posts. Can he keep up the pace though?


Codsticker - 40 Points
No changes here, as Codsticker has been working on some figures for the dark ages instead.

DrQ - 300 Points
A small increase as the good Doctor has added some more, very characterful minis to his finished pile. Of particular note are these very spooky Glaivewraith Stalkers.


GregB - 5 Points
Finally adding a small number of points to his tally, with a masterfully painted Imperial public affairs specialist, Greg has joined the race.


Paul O'G - 208 Points
Nearly doubling his score, Paul has painted up more figures for his herd of Beastmen. This bunch of Chaos loving troublemakers look especially bloodthirsty. 


PaulS - 184 Points
Continuing to add points to his tally at a steady pace, Paul has done some great terrain bits and some figures for Necromunda. His Ambull is a scary looking beasty and probably more than a match for anything in the underhive.


Reilly O'G - 450 Points
More goblins, because you always need more goblins it seems. Reilly has done some fun looking fanatics and added to his score. These twirling, uncontrollable lunatics may soon be called on to deal with some Beastmen by the looks of things. 


StuartL - 666 Points
Yet more points rigging and fraud have seen StuartL continue in the lead, well that and painting up a squad of World Eaters. Seriously though, someone should complain to the management about this guy.


TeemuL - 197 Points
Teemu has decided to look to nature for his inspiration, these beautiful Awakened Wyldwood trees are the result.

And those are the scores as they stand. If anyone else would like to participate, the door is always open. 

As it seems a small error in calculations occurred in the last update, please let me know if any numbers seem off. I'm going by the totals given in the titles of posts and searching by user name in the tags (please make sure you do this as there are far too many posts to keep track of). If minions changed your points totals or you posted without tagging your name, please let me know in the comments below.

  1. There will be more; it will be hard to get 300+ points more.

    But not impossible...

    1. I'm sure you'll manage something. After that little stunt with the graveyard, I'm not putting anything past you.
