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 ScottM: Arrakis - a desert planet (80 pts)

Our first stop in the middle ring, lands us at Arrakis, the desert planet. And if you have a desert, you have to have camels! All the figs in this post are 28mm metal from Foundry Miniatures. First up is a pair of camels.

Followed by two groups of assorted ancient civilians.

So that should be:

8 - 28mm foot figs = 40 points

2 - 28mm cavalry figs = 20 points

1 location (Arrakis) = 20 points

Total = 80 points

From Millsy:

Ahhh... camels. It's enough to melt the heart of even the most crotchety old curmudgeon like DaveD!

Cracking work on these Scott, especially the skin tones on the humans and the camel fur. We don't see a lot of civilian types posted overall so these are a nice breath of fresh air. Foundry do seem to have one of the broadest civilian ranges and I have a few myself. Lovely sculpts, all of them.

80 points added to your tally sir. Well done indeed!
