May Hobby Challenge - Miniature Rescue!

 

As you may have seen in previous posts, me and Chris often set each other a monthly challenge, wether that be to paint a specific thing or play a game, etc.

Well, inspired by eBay Miniature Rescues I set the challenge to buy a second hand miniature from eBay, strip it back as far you can to it's component materials and then renovate it up to your current standard of hobby.

I'll lay out the ground rules here:

*****

May 2023 Miniature Rescue Challenge:

  • Go on eBay.
  • Purchase a rescue a miniature*.
  • Strip it. 
  • Paint it.
  • Make a display/competition base for it**.

The miniature must be a rescue, but can be anything you want as long as it's 28/32mm scale.

We'll need a before photo, a stripped photo and the finished painted photos.

Challenge starts now, ends on May 31st and I'll post everything up Saturday 3rd June.

If anyone wants to join in, feel free and leave a comment on this post and we'll arrange a method to get in touch for the photo's.

Until then, have nice day...



*Now don't go breaking the bank on this, the idea isn't to flex as to who can save the most expensive or rare miniature. It's just a great way to motivate for something different then usual toil each month.

**Don't feel like you have to do Golden Daemon levels of interest for the base.
I'd be perfectly happy with a well modelled gaming base, which was a bit more then just sand glued down and painted.
If you want to add a proper display base or mini-diorama, then feel free, just remember that deadline is the 31st of May!
