Painting Challenge: Frodo!


Hello everyone! Welcome to the thread for the July Painting Challenge!

Rules

1. A miniature is decided upon before each monthly painting challenge, this months' being Frodo. It is not required that you paint this mini, however it is preferred. Here is a list of preferred miniatures in order of most preferred to least preferred:

  • Frodo
  • Any other Hobbit
If you are unsure as to whether something will be elligible for entry, just post asking or PM me and I will let you know whether or not you may use it, as this months challenge could be open to many different alternative figures.

2. To enter the painting challenge, the miniature you are painting must not be painted before starting and picture proof must be shown of the miniature 'pre-painted' (unprimed, undercoated or if you are repainting and old miniature - in its' original paint scheme) otherwise your entry will not be eligible.

3. You may join the painting challenge in progress at any time, but must submit photographs of the completed miniature by midnight GMT+1 of August 3rd, 2012. WIP images are welcomed and encouraged. A maximum of 4 photos please, this allows you to show your miniature off from front, back and each side which is more than enough.

4. Miniatures that are completed in time will be eligible to win the challenge. The challenge winner will be decided by the vote of the OR community. The community will choose one winner and one runner-up from the completed miniatures. Votes should be cast not simply on painting skill, but on merit, including creativity, application of painting techniques, artist improvement, etc. There is no prize available for the winners of this challenge, the challenge is solely for community participation and as an incentive for people to reduce their backlog and improve their painting skills.

5. Winners from the previous month are able to participate in the next months painting challenge, but they are not eligible to win in consecutive months.

Good luck to all!

Thanks, garmenhord! Looking forward to seeing yours, but have a good holiday first! I think the eyes in the sculpt are meant to be closed (which helps with the painting a bit!)

Here's to hoping for another month full of wonderful entries.

@Erurainon the Trombonist - great work on Frodo. Fast painting but also good painting, you've already set the bar high for this month's challenge.
