There are many secret 40K players here or recent converts to the Asrai WHFB way. Give them a chance to show what they have.

Sorry, no pun, just fun. Your avatar inspired me. ;) As a matter of fact, bi-monthly contest entries is more than enough for me. And you (the team) have my full confidence in handling these contests. Keep up the good work and may the meanest [selfcensored] son of a gun win! :cool:

Yep, the Monthly Modelling Challenges end when the month ends.

I'm not even trying to participate this one. My newest 40k vehicle is over three years old. :D

Hm... maybe my baneblade... :paranoid: . I actually might be able to do this... not much/very little skin to paint. Or I could enter the russ which has no skin to paint... I'll think about it

Well, I've managed to paint my Leman Russ, which would make it the first thing I've painted that I'm actually half way satisfied with. Haven't taken any pics yet, but I will in a second. Also the first thing I've painted in 1.5 years!

Pics! And to explain the Red/blue-white color scheme, my IG are a combined regiment made up from several different fragments of regiments, and so they paint their tanks with a mixture of the Regimental color schemes (Read, I started painting them like the Cadians in the book, then switched to an Ice World scheme, then switched to a Volcano Death World and haven't repainted the ones that need it yet)

EDIT: Oh and the (new) name of the tank is "Iron Fire"
