Here is my Entry for July.
Its a conversion from the General of the Empire kit. I think he looks more like a Grand Master than a General anyway and that's how I use him in my games.

[Commander Bernhardt]

My grand master:

[warhammerlord_soth]

Results : The Peacemaker 6.66 pts
Commander Bernhardt 7.33 pts.


Berhardt wins ! Congratulations.

[Commander Bernhardt]

Hooray! drinks on me! 

I'd like to thank my mom, and my girlfriend for supporting me. and God, for lending me His strenght to persevere.

seriusly though, it's a pitty there weren't more entrants but at least this way I got a chance 
well done to peacemaker also, I didn't knew who the judges would prefer

....I think I need a paper light box. I spent alot of time highlighting my grand master and it doesn't really show up. Especially on the feathers and most of the gold. And the black armour is a mix of black and metal but it just looks like its shiny from the lighting instead of the mix.

My karl franz is almost done and I think I'll make a light picture box for him. Because he's done in the same color scheme.

Oh, well. I guess a score of 6.66 is better than a score of nothing for not submitting.

warhammerlord_soth: Is there a guide or whatever as to how these are rated?  Just curious as to wear I'm getting docked points.

[warhammerlord_soth]

No guide.


it all boils down to the judges' decisions.

peacemaker, you do not start at 10 and get marked down, you start at 0 and get marked up. I am sure you figure looks better in real life, but then the other entry most likely looks better in real life also.  Since we are not seeing these in person, we have to rely on the presentation that you make.  Still I enjoyed seeing your grandmaster, good job.  Bearnheart, good job also.  steveb

Ok, seeing as it is Emperor month lets see what Karl Franz can really do:

[The Peacemaker]

The Emperor Sigmar Reborn!!!!
(aka: Valten)





I was trying to finish this guy with his griffon but just didn't have time. Only got to the handle highlights and silver highlights. But I love how the light shines off the armour in the pictures so I figured I'd show him off.

[Darknight]

My entry for September; 10 Crossbowmen! Converted to look a bit like Brazanga's Besiegers with heavy armor and pavaises. Click for larger images.

[JAK]

Finally completed my March Entry of a Siege Cannon now demoted to October’s Artillery Piece but with 5 person crew.

The McSweeney clan and a statue of Lord Hong’s favourite puppy, Gromit.

I do hope the painting competitions are not dying. There’s no way I could do another set of Dymigryphs so here’s a new picture.

The Pseudopolis Heavy Dragons



The more observant of you will notice that the leader has gained a pet goblin since the earlier shots. This is due to him entering a contest entitled ‘Duel’ where the goblin had unbuckled his saddle and was about to unseat him. All buckled up securely again now with goblin hanging on to the straps like the 92nd Highlanders and Scot’s Greys at Waterloo.

[warhammerlord_soth]

Gorgeous !

[Noble Korhedron]

@JAK: Q. Don't you mean 'Heavy Dragoons', rather than 'Heavy Dragons'?

[JAK]

@JAK: Q. Don't you mean 'Heavy Dragoons', rather than 'Heavy Dragons'?

Sorry Noble, but we do mean DRAGONS – full story is here

I do hope the painting competitions are not dying.

Me too. I haven't been able to participate much this year, but now that my Undead project is done, I'm planning on focusing at least a moderate amount of my energy on Empire this next year. I'm always happy to contribute when its possible to get my projects aligned with the monthly goal.

Here's hoping. 


Really like the coloring and skin technique on those dragons Jak!

On an Imperial site I visit there are monthly painting competitions.
