Kev's July Challenge!
Kev has once again foolishly agreed to a monthly sculpting challenge.
For those of you who missed it, there was one in May and the details are here and here.
The basic premise is that Kev undertakes to finish five sculpts based on descriptions posed by myself, and one sculpt based on a winner of a poll voted on by you guys, all by the end of the month.
This month will be particularly difficult as the mini choices are tough, and the summer holidays start soon, which means Kev finds himself a considerably busier dad.
If he completes them all, he gets
that's a bottle of Lindisfarne Mead, a bottle of Manuka Honey 42 Below vodka, and a bottle of Honjozo Genshu sake.
The five minis I have chosen are
- A fantasy female landsknecht with a greatsword
- A male dreadlocked sci-fi bounty hunter, a partner or rival for Andreah
- A tough female survivor with longcoat, shotgun, and knives
- A modern drug dealer with pork pie hat, pistol, and possibly even a satchel of something illegal
- A firefighter survivor, big, black, and bald with a fireaxe and gun
Feel free to go here and tell me how awful or awesome my choices are.
As for no. 6 .
Vote Now!
The poll for the sixth mini is from
- Female fantasy witch hunter. Classic style with funny hat, duelling pistol/rifle etc.
- Male modern/survivor with M134 minigun (look it up). No specifics here, it's the gun that carries the figure so the rest would be left up to Kev.
- Female fantasy warrior monk. Short hair or partially shavedhead or both. Giant maul/hammer, heavy armor, etc.
- Prone sniper for our Modern Trooper range (if choosing this option, please also state male or female)
- Dynamic young male paladin, curly hair, bastard sword, third Castlemere member
- Female succubus, beautiful, naked, horns, posed as casting a spell (possible variants to follow, including clothed and/or winged)
You can vote here. As you'll see, there's already a a large number of votes and it is surprisingly close! This one may be a squeaker.
Please don't reply to this with a vote, we'll likely miss it. Just go post on the Facebook thread.
