So what are you waiting for get cracking!
 
I've got a few Metal Magic minis who've been patiently waiting undercoated for well over 2 years now, I think it's about time at least one of them saw some colour. Or perhaps that unreleased Foundry renaissance halberdier, or all those Grenadier JG's Personalities range minis I've got, or maybe my EM4 package will arrive just in the nick of time, or...!!?

Time to set aside the illusions of grandeur and actually get something done this week. Arranging my WFB card buildings to look like a village scene upon my shelf has definitely helped boost my motivation, realised I don't have enough civilian minis so I bought a bunch of Metal Magic townsfolk from Turnkey. I'm rambling a bit, haven't slept in a while. Count me in, Chico, I think I'm ready.
 
Here's my entry. Been painting an "Eldar Merchant Squad" and just finished this guy today. It's a limited "Space Elf Nomad" by Impact! Miniatures. There was only 50 of them cast in 2008.

Sculpted from a design by me an commissioned from Impact by yours truly. Are you painting up any more of the figures? :)

No more designed/commissioned from you. I just have a couple of old Marauder Elves That looked like they could be part of the Merchant Group so I made slight conversions to them for 40k. I'll take a group photo once they're all done.

I've got 3 models halfway done, but heavy workload this week and the fact I'm out tomorrow, means that I will not be able to complete them in time. :(

Still, at least the challenge gote to start them and with a day off on Monday, I should get them done! :) (not in time for the challenge, but well I'm time for BOYL.)
 
Just made it in with the Beer Garden Beauty from Impact! Miniatures.





And here's the bribe picture - She's looking at you Chico...

Back of the model and a shot of ZiM with Bluey's Nurgle champ (to show just how small the little blighter is ^_^ )

Also - for the record - Blueys Nurgle champ is no tin the comp - he was sadly finished a week too soon.

Very nice entries everyone! Unfortunately real life has interfered once again (I'm cursed with it I tells ye) and there's no way I'll be able to finish my entry in time. :oops:

Best of luck to you all!
