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 SanderS: Rodents calling Witching Service! (35 points)

Hoi,

Arthur and myself would like to skip some Challenge rooms and get to the Oubliette fast so I have painted up a (vaguely) female figure and some companions to go along.

Remember the Resin 3D printed Star Wars figures I entered as Curtgeld at the start of the Challenge? Well the same company (perikles.be) does also sell Animal Kingdom figures designed by Duncan Shadow with his permission. Man are they cute, so I ordered 3 figures: one for Arthur, one for Hugo (my youngest son) and one for my wife. The latter is a female wizard/ sorcerress or whatever you call it, only she is also evidently a Mouse!

Arthur gets another mouse but this one is a Ranger for game purposes and he has called it Rover.

The youngest got a Squirrel, which he's calling "Eekje" which is not pronounced as it looks in English the Ee sounding like the A in aking (I am aking all over).

Anyway I digress, these are briliant figures to paint, crisp and full of lively detail and the service of the firm is awesome. I immediately ordered a second load of stuff, hopefully I can get some of the contents painted in these last weeks.
