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 AdamC: two Xebecs (30 points)

I'm sailing into the wind hopping I will not miss stays and fall short of my target this year.

Fortunately Barbary Xebecs are quite good at sailing close to the wind and they should help move my a bit closer to that goal.

These are 3D prints provided by my friend Arofan. They are one of Henry Turners designs. The masts and sails were constructed by me and the sails cut from a paper bag are hand painted.

Xebecs are one of my favorite ship designs and I look forward getting these on the table. These should add another 30 points (15 points per three masted ships) to my total unless the minions determine they have greater (or lesser) value.

Nice little ships, Adam.
