It's Spooky Season, so dust off your paints and see what you can do with minis that are related to a Hammer Horror film! These would include, but not limited to Dracula, Frankenstein, The Mummy, etc. Ya know, traditional Halloween/Horror Film baddies.

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.

#

Thanks Wolfie!

#

I have werewolves and flesh golems. You guys decide which one when I grab a pic.

warm haven Oct 7, 2024, 5:08 PM

#

Alright I have ghouls 1,2,3 flesh golem 1&2 and werewolves 1 + 2&3

Which one?

#

I like these two the most

#

Might be the pose 😆

sacred geyser Oct 7, 2024, 6:20 PM

#

First impression: Left bottom ghoul. I agree on that pose being cool.

finite snow Oct 7, 2024, 8:04 PM

#

I like the left bottom ghoul and right bottom wolf a lot, they look neat

plucky bolt Oct 7, 2024, 8:05 PM

I like the reaching wolf, but I am probably the outlier

Had 8 hours to hobby in 3 days... Almost the same time i get in a month so i had to enjoy it! Also i was going to do it just before the pal appeared so i had it cleaned already.

Thx a lot. To me was a challenge i set for this miniature.

Would a scarecrow count for this if it's like a living scarecrow?

fading pebble Oct 15, 2024, 1:08 PM

#

I would say yes - it's a classic monster (though more 1950s than 1910s)

lost vault Oct 15, 2024, 4:14 PM

perfecto

finite snow Oct 16, 2024, 2:26 PM

Hey Squid sure you're aware but you need to post a picture of a mini that is only up to primed to get credit for it during the paint-a-long

hot raven Oct 21, 2024, 3:56 AM

#

hot raven I have a few zombies that I haven't yet pledged to my aow army.

Just put these through the freezer to pull of the 25mm bases. I need to base them on 20mm for most of the games I can use them in.

Can something like this work?

meager mantle Can something like this work?

Imo, no. I don't recognize that as one of the old school movie monsters (unless I'm missing something) so I don't think it would count for the along

#

There is still the undead-along going with a week left, if you can paint quickly

I was thinking about the skeletons in every dungeon in the universe. But you right. Doesn’t fit. I’ll see if I have something that does

Got a mummy to work on!

sacred geyser Oct 26, 2024, 6:39 PM

#

Thought it might be fun to do these tiny "busts" (well technically they are alternative heads for 28/32mm figures), and place them on tiny plinths (better known as wooden beads).
Mummy, frankensteins monster, werewolf, vampire and scarecrow.
5 of them should add up to one mini worth right?

tranquil tapir Oct 30, 2024, 8:18 AM

#

Imenhotep lives!

finite snow Oct 31, 2024, 3:36 AM

#

Love the mummy!

#

not done yet but still really proud of how this red is turning out on the vampire!

sacred geyser Nov 1, 2024, 8:54 PM

#

Started painting small busts. Man they are tiny... true 28mm scale I think.

plucky bolt Nov 1, 2024, 8:54 PM

#

Where did those come from? Print them?

sacred geyser Nov 1, 2024, 8:59 PM

#

Green stuff world produces them as alternative heads for miniatures. It's a whole set. I just picked out the classical monsters for this PAL.

plucky bolt Nov 1, 2024, 9:04 PM

#

Oh dang, I love those

sacred geyser Nov 1, 2024, 9:06 PM

#

plucky bolt Oh dang, I love those

Yeah and for only 4 euro I thought they would make for fun little practice heads/mini busts. Picked them up on a whim.

plucky bolt Nov 1, 2024, 9:07 PM

#

I've got to pay shipping to the US. So I typically have to get a decent order to make it worth it

#

I just picked up a tentacle maker off eBay too, otherwise I'd have a good order to put in lol

sacred geyser Nov 1, 2024, 9:09 PM

#

An aquintance happened to order a bigger order from them anyway. So I asked him to add those for me for Halloween. Did not cost him more shipping so I only payed the 4 euros. Made it a good fun deal.

plucky bolt Nov 1, 2024, 9:12 PM

#

If I knew what bodies to use those in I would grab them as is lol

#

Making them into mini busts was inspired

sacred geyser Nov 1, 2024, 9:15 PM

#

plucky bolt Making them into mini busts was inspired

Thanks. Seemed the only way I could ever use them. And had perfect beads as plinths. Plan to do them all eventually though that means I still need to find 4 more suitable plinth beads as I only had 10.
And it gave me something for this PAL too.
Does anyone know who the 3th guy middle row is supposed to be? Know all the others.

You can always join by just posting the unpainted mini before or in the PAL runtime timeframe. And then paint and post it during that. Hech you can even do all that last day off if you wish 🙂 And voila you are in. All thats needed to officially enter a PAL.

#

Chatting about the PAL and your and others project and posting WIPs optional but welkom.

Thoughts on this guy? Thinking of doing a white/green glow foe the eyes and mouth. Anything else that stands out (excluding the base)?

fading pebble Nov 21, 2024, 2:58 AM

Calling these two done, except for the bases

finite snow Nov 23, 2024, 9:35 PM
