Choose me a model to paint.

original thread ↗

I have really enjoyed the paint and trade event that has been going on and it has helped me get back into painting again.
I am now looking for a small project and would like someone to decide for me.
I would like someone to pick a model for me to paint. Can be from any company and can be out OOP as long as its easily available from ebay.
I dont want to spend too much, maybe £10 or under.
So please somebody choose something for me.
Ta.
Hey neezy its great to hear that you have been inspired to do more painting ! And after the paint and trade event I can definately relate :P id quite like to see your spin on the "handmaiden of the everqueen" model for the new woodelves as it looks like a great model with lots of detail and at £9.50 (on the website at least) its right in your price range  :lol:

Oooow, this sounds so cool mate! You could go with some Sabres as they are only £10 from GW and cheaper off ebay.

I would love to pick some random model and say "paint this..." but I think I can go one better!

How about I send you a model to paint? I have loads (literally loads) of stuff and have a legendary habbit of giving stuff away. I am happy to send you a model for your OK army for you to paint. When you have done it, you can keep it. Of course, you wont know what it is until you get it...but them's the breaks!

How does that sound?

now THAT sounds like a challenge !  :shock:

Sounds a fantastic idea Gnoblar Herder.
We can do a mystery swap if you like? I dont have anything spare OK but have tons of other stuff.
Isnt the Handmaiden of the everqueen High elves? Im sure my wife has that model to paint up.
This thread and you guys are just pure 'Feel good time of hobby'... Keep it up! : )

The base on your mystery model is drying...as is the greenstuff and super glue.

I have to say it turned out better than I had planned!

As soon as the whole thing is dry it will be in the post. Enjoy painting this evil looking B'stard....oh, that's right you haven't seen it...  8)

*posted it now, looked to be dry enough so it's winging it's way to you as we speak*
Picked up the model from the post office this morning.
He looks great. I wanted to base coat him this evening but its raining :(
I will get pictures up as soon as i can.
Thank you so much Gnoblar Herder i am so pleased with him.
No worries, it was my pleasure.
