I would for sure be up to teaming up for team challenges if possible.

Users Jedijared, Lana, and I are doing a “Wizard’s Tower” group for Q1, if you’re interested. Jedijared is painting an Astrolabe, Lana is painting a wizard, and I’m going to do a scholar (or something; haven’t yet decided).

 

If you (or anyone else) wants to join us, post a reply!

Limited Palette (4) - Each month will have three different colors limited palette, reaper paints only, black or white are allowed with your three other colors. Example: Blue/red/green You must choose a shade of each one, for instance Clear blue/Brick Red/Forest Green = those are your three colors for that month. 

 

Q1: Surely not ALL Minis have to be painted just in these three colours? One minis done up like this is enough to enter and score?

 

new release march 2021:

77976 Lost Souls (5) 12.99

 

Q2: Are these the translucents from the Barge? Since they are releasing in March, do they count towards "new releases" for the first quarter?  (I have painted all the others already...so I don't have anything else to paint from the entire first quarters Bones releases.)

Well this sounds fun, ill give it a try.  

 

Duo or Trio: 

If anyone wants to group up im looking at the Ogre chieftain in bones black 44006, im currently vibing on reapers larger minis. 

or something easy  from Bones 1 - like the spider swarm. 

I am a little limited in what I have left unpainted Bones 2-4 -  but most of the stuff from Dreadmere is still unpainted. 

 

@Evilhalfling,I've got a spare ogre chieftain(it's the one with the door for a shield, right?) and an unpainted Dreadmere set, so I'll happily group up with you. Feel free to PM me to organize stuff.

Oh no, this is a single monthly challenge, can be completed once each month!

Yes i am going to change the wording on the New release challenge to be the current month + the past two months.

I have the little Hordlings I just got in my stocking (lol). I think those would fit the theme. What do you think? If so, then count me in!

 Sounds good! Send me a message with your Discord username, and we can coordinate when we will submit our entries together this quarter.

Definitely glad to hear this, especially with packages having a rather... Difficult time getting across the border in a timely manner with current circumstances...  And that was before the holiday rush. 

 

Thanks for adding a larger buffer into such!

If wanting to do duos and such if I wanted myself and one of my kids to each paint a mini do they need an account to post from?

[Pochi]

If you do a duo with one person and you do a duo with a second person, I understand you only get counted for one but would both of your different partners be counted as completing theirs?

You will help to complete theres but since you already completed the challenge you will not receive points for it. but it will count for them!

Excellent! Thank you!

Well, looking at what I've got on my bench for painting in the near future I think I've got several of the month's categories covered. So I'm in for a while. If anyone needs a second or third for the duo and trio categories, or even for the four plus people quarterly category, please let me know. I've been in for Bones 2 through 5, so I may already have the model you want to paint (although I may have already painted it, but I'm guessing a complete repaint is good enough). And failing that, there's a FLGS store near me with a big Reaper selection, so I can likely accommodate. Fun idea, I like it!

I am looking for a trio if anyone is interested.  I have quite a bit of Bones 3 unpainted and while I did not do Bones 4, I have picked up quite a few of the ones that have been released in retail so far.

 

Found a trio for January! Thanks!

I'm willing to give a duo or trio a try.
