    I'm glad to welcome you all to our Seventh

    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 & @ASSASSIN_NR_1, the co-winners of the last challenge, is

    "BEHEMOTHS OF WARHAMMER".​

    The theme focuses on any large beast or model from any army, not Lizardmen specific... whatever you feel it may fits the theme!.

    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 8, Saturday, august 31th: Entry thread closed. Voting thread opened.
    Week 10, Saturday, september 14th: Voting thread closed. Result announced. Winner asked about next theme.


    This thread is now open for people to post their entries. Please state a name of the entry along with the pictures. The thread closes on the 31th of august 2024 at (roughly) 23:59 but it could be extended a little if there's the need for it. You can also comment and discuss in this thread, it is not restricted exclusively for entries.

    Best of luck to us all. :D
    @Explodingzeb & @ASSASSIN_NR_1 , that is phenomenal theme and can't wait for all the entries.

    Edit: also, I am beating myself, because I had possibility to buy Dread Saurian about 2 months ago and passed it.

    That is a great theme, time to tick of a bigger model of my pile of unpainted miniatures :)

    The question might be what constitutes a 'Behemoth'?

    Grrr, !mrahil

    Exactly. :D I still have one Stegadon, but with 12 painted dinos already, it feels to me as "normal sized" model. :D

    Stegadon definitely counts in my opinion. I had any monster sized creature in mind.

    Thank you all! it's a piece by serpentbloods. I had a lot of fun painting it. I use it as bastiladon/filler for units.

    Let's make it a competition!
    (If for no other reason, than there now being two entries :p asTzhunkiHuanchisukaePiangi's entry is just stunning, so we shall see how mine competes).

    Still going with my Order Daemons theme, and this time it's a Bloodthirster - or as I have made my own names for them, this one needed one as well, so I came up with a name, that also references another franchise (the reference is not exactly hidden :D)

    Star Destroyer
