Paint something that depicts an event outside of battle. So either people observing, eating, fishing , chilling, Netflix and chill whatever it is. Just make them be about non violent thoughts

STANDARD HOUSEKEEPING RULES :

You may prep your mini, this includes, gap fill, assemble, purchase and prime ahead of time. Paint should only be applied during the time-frame of the PAL.

Anyone can join in on the fun. Just share your mini first and paint within the time frame. Request your points in the point request channel by following the pinned post on how to ask for points.

You can't submit the same mini for multiple PALs or other multiple events. And units minis can't be split among the different PALS if they are identical .

Have fun and be nice to each other. Share some wips and some laughs.

I'm playing a changeling in my next dnd campaign and I'm printing off like 30 random minis to use for them hahaha...I'm sure I'll find a good one by May to use here. Maybe a baker or something lol

#

I would like to enter with her if that's okay ^^

hardy whale Apr 9, 2024, 5:26 PM

#

Absolutely. Very cool bust. Love it.

calm sundial Apr 9, 2024, 5:27 PM

#

thank you ^-^ I have a version of her in a more night life outfit but that is a smaller bust xd

#

(and I like the coffee one a bit more xd)

#

#

(she even has little earrings in the box! but still I will go with the coffee bust 😄 )

hardy whale Apr 9, 2024, 5:32 PM

#

I prefer the coffee drinking one. Something about it. So casual and love the just out of bed hair.

calm sundial Apr 9, 2024, 5:34 PM

#

yes I like it more, too ^^ it's so casual ^-^ I hope I will do her justice 😄

hard wraith Apr 10, 2024, 5:22 PM

#

Hmm…do I paint the bust I intended to use for the last slice of life. Or do I do that one for feathery friend. Box art for reference.

calm sundial Apr 10, 2024, 5:42 PM

#

that bust is sweet! and yes it fits both, tough decision ^^

hardy whale Apr 10, 2024, 6:26 PM

#

I like it most for slice of life. It's so perfect for that. But yeah would fit both. Hope you manage to paint it this time round. It's such a sweet bust... in more ways then one 🥰

I do have this semi irate and confrontational friend I could paint

#

However he does not have a leaf so I'd have to make a base lol

Naked dwarf in bath primed and ready to go. Really want to start this one, Put on some Wind Rose and go paint. Few more days. Put Wind Rose on anyway ^^

calm sundial Apr 29, 2024, 8:31 AM

I want to start, too but we go on vacation starting this saturday... Maybe I can get in some painting before but I don't think so xd

hardy whale Apr 29, 2024, 8:44 AM

Well as far as reasons go not to be able to paint. Vacations are among the best of them 🙂

is a soldier chilling ok?

calm sundial May 1, 2024, 7:50 PM

#

In my opinion yes, it reminds me of those guys sitting on the sidewalk after the apocalypse and talking about the good old times

#

but I don't know if this is what @hardy whale had in mind with this PAL ^^

hardy whale May 1, 2024, 7:57 PM

#

No weapons, not fighting. Reflecting. I'd be fine with this one.

What about her? She has a weapon, but she is mostly chilling. Hanging in the forest and staring at her hand

Oh wow you are fast! He looks great ^-^

#

I haven't even primed mine yet XD

hardy whale May 2, 2024, 1:48 PM

Really wanted to paint him for some time 🙂 And he was a joy to paint so that helps.

oh the misery of drilling plinth and cutting rod pepecry

calm sundial May 22, 2024, 11:59 AM

Have not done that yet, I'm a bit scared of it ^^
I will have to improvise anyway, since I don't have a plinth yet

calm sundial May 26, 2024, 4:44 PM

I started! But taking a break now. Skin is difficult 😄

Sanded & washed this guy.

He’s by far the largest model I’ll have attempted to paint so hopefully all goes well. Will need to rewatch the Fabric tutorial.

Tonight wasn’t my night haha - spent an hour on the model’s left panel of green shirt trying to add texture and ended up right back where I started. Moved onto the faded blue shirt and am happier with the results but still lots to do. Working at this scale is a new challenge!

My mini for this finally arrived in the post and has been victimized by my attempt to learn Zenithal priming. Despite him arguably not needing it. I'm excited to paint up this apple seller and I think the sculpt is quite nice. I even bought a bag of apples in my hype.
