Those who have been here for more than a few months, might know about the yearly challenge hosted by @Swordmaster , #Monster March!
Last year’s entries were gorgeous! You can find about them all here. Though I don’t know if Swordmaster can find the time to host the challenge again this year, I decided to start out early this year. If Swordie can’t make it this year, I’ll post the progress on my own blog and here.
As this challenge has been a community thing, anyone can enter! Usually, there are a lot of fantasy-related monsters (including mine) but other genres are present too. Hopefully, the great projects from previous years (all can be found on Swordie’s blog) inspire you to join too!
This year, my contribution will be modest - a humble goblin blaster. But not the Mantic model, I chose a great 3d print by titan forge minis.. You can find my entry (and hopefully all future updates) on my blog.
Dear all, it’s again close the end of February, so I am preparing for Monster March again!
This time, I choose a model that doesn’t really have a counterpart in kings of War (maybe a buffed Wingit?) but it’s a gerat model to paint!
A friend of mine builds special models for me from time to time. This is an ancient dragon model with the Dogs of War hobgobla Khan as mount. I stripped it and after a fresh base coat, I can repaint it. That’s the beauty of metal models, they can be easily stripped and painted anew!
Yay Monster March! Thanks for continuing the tradition @Vince. Hope @Swordmaster will pop back in eventually and say “hi” too though!
As for Monster March, I’ve got a model lined up already: Slightly modified Drakon Lord. (Headswap / Hornswap on the Drakon). Already did some work on the rider and got the drakon basecoated, so should be all ready to get started with the actual painting of the “monster part” of the model.
Needs a lot more work than expected. Just about fits together. Big join lines need to be filled and one of the heads need grinding out to fit. Gonna have to get the dremel and milliput out at somepoint to complete this in March.
I fancy joining in this March.
