I'm glad to welcome you all to our Twelfth


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 @Hojdar, the winner of the last challenge, is


"PEACOCKING / DRESSING UP".



The idea is to emphasize making our models extra fancy and stand out among the rest.
Ornate feathers, exquisite clothing, glimmering gold and jewellery and gemstones, marble stone. weapons, fancy hats, diadems, crowns and so on.

Interesting theme. I will have to see which model might be suitable for it...

Grrr, !mrahil
 
This round i could enter with something.
I already know i will end in the lower ranking, but if it helps to give one more votes... ;)
 
as promised, i'm gonna start the comp.
It was not made for this one cause i've painted it some months ago just to use it in my usual games, so i've not cured the details and i'm aware I should have spend a little time to improved it as my entry... but i wasn't in the mood for it. :p
