    I'm glad to welcome you all to our Eleventh


    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


    "PATTERNS".



    These can be natural, like markings on creatures. Or they can be painted, designs on shields or cloth etc. .

    The goal is just one: to exalt those details that make your model stand out!

    ---------------------------------------------
