    I'm glad to welcome you all to our Sixth

    FEATHERED SERPENT PAINTING COMPETITION


    In The Feathered Serpent, we pick a different theme each time, and the goal is to represent the theme or find ways to turn it to the ways of the Old Ones.

    The theme of this round, as chosen by @Explodingzeb , the winner of the last challenge, is

    "THE HEROES OF LUSTRIA".​

    The theme focuses on the characters that lead the forces of Lustria in their eternal fight for the achievement of the Great Plan. Be them Slanns, Saurus, Skinks, Kroxigor leaders... whatever you feel it may fits the theme!.

    You are also encouraged to use models or parts from whatever army you feel like, not restricted to Lizardmen / Seraphon only. It could be a single model or a whole unit of them, of all scales (pun intended) and sizes.
    Original models (sculpts) and conversions are allowed.

    The Prize: The winner earns the glory and a place in the incoming Hall of Fame thread. The winner also gets to select the theme of the next painting challenge.

    The Rules:
    • All models entered should not have been painted more than a year ago from the date the entry thread is closed. This will not be enforced but violators will politely be asked to retract their entry.
    • All miniatures presented must have been painted by the entrant.
    • Max one entry per person.
    • Max 3 images per entry (including pictures in collages), of reasonable size.
    • No voting for your own entry.
    • (for now) Open entries and open voting. Everyone can see who painted what.
    • Models can be of any manufacturer and conversion but must fulfill the criteria of the given theme.
    • A diorama is a valid entry, as long as it fits the theme.
    • if you want to re-enter a model that was already listed in a previous competition, pm me before doing it.

    The Schedule:

    Week 1: now - Theme announcement and entry thread created
    Week 9, Saturday, june the 1st: Entry thread closed. Voting thread opened.

    Model wise, it's not anything grand, but I think I have interesting enough lore to make up for that;)

    Here comes a new challenger!
    Or should I say "Hero" ;)

    A Scar Vet on Aggradon enters the fray or, as he is to be used as a Herald of Khorne on Bloodcrusher I could call him something like:
    "Herald of Order on Starrender"

    Wow! This is fantastic! I love the magma effect on the aggradon, and the white metal contrasts so nicely with the rest of the model.
