Hello Challengers,
The Lovers theme was a tricky theme to represent from a pile of wargames figures that mainly wield axes and guns.
Nevertheless, I found this weird resin casting of a mollusc man playing a Ukulele. There is a bird thing with a helmet that appeared to be alert; perhaps it was listening attentively to the serenading polyp. Placed together, they really do seem to be in love. If they have offspring, it would be hard to imagine.
Can’t remember where these came from, they were part of a set, I think I may have painted the rest in a prior challenge.
Points,
2 x 28mm infantry = 10 points
The lovers theme = 20 points.
Kind Regards
Geoff.
From Millsy:
What an odd pair they are Geoff, particularly the weird bird creature! Still, who are we to judge and if they have found love together then good for them. Perhaps it takes someone different to recognise the value of that in someone else.
I really like you colour choices for the bird creature particularly that striking red/brown which contrasts really well with the muted grey and steel.
Cracking stuff, one of the most unusual posts I have curated this year!
Cheers
Millsy
Is it love or is the mollusk man casting an attraction spell? Nice work on some unique figures.
ReplyDeleteGreat colour choices on both, Geoff! Really dig the red and blue of that bird weirdo
ReplyDeleteWeirdest stuff this challenge! Love em.
ReplyDeleteStrange pair indeed. Excellent work and color scheme on the both. Well done.
ReplyDeleteNice colour scheme
ReplyDeleteI am amazed at the imagination of many of the figure sculptors. You have more than done this one justice with your great painting.
ReplyDeleteSeems like these jumped right out off a Breugel or Jeroen Bosch painting. Inspiring indeed!
ReplyDeleteWonderfully cracked and somehow perfectly in-theme. Love 'em.
ReplyDeleteGood Stuff! I always enjoy the odd ball minis like these that pop up in these AHPC events!
ReplyDeleteNice work Geoff......weird.....but nice!
ReplyDeleteWhen I think of love, this is what comes to mind! Brilliant work.
