Of Lunatics and Henchmen: Inquisition Challenge #1

[WarriorFish]

Always good to see eleventh hour completions, both very good ones with nice glow effects too. Well done, more excellent additions to the challenge! :D

[Dosjetka]

Excellent work all round! I especially like the last three additions, lovely stuff :tu:

 

The challenge is now closed and the poll to decide who the winner is should be up fairly soon.

 

Thanks to all who participated and look out for the next challenge (during which I'll hopefully be a bit more active :sweat:)!

[WarriorFish]

Hooray for the first Inquisitional event! Well done to all involved for a job well done (especially Ludo!) :tu:

[Slave to Darkness]

Gutted I missed it, the past 2 days I had some grit or something in my eye and was in bloody agony, couldn't even see properly last night, congrats to all those that finished. :tu: Good work all round. 

[Brother Argent]

WEll although I missed the deadline I still fully intend on finishing my henchman and posting him.  I'm not eligible for votes but at least I got it done.

[WarriorFish]

Yeah, no reason not to finish what you started :) The Inquisition doesn't like quitters anyway :P

[Slave to Darkness]

Now that my eye has finally stopped firing out vision distorting boogers I can actually finish mine, if I don't then it will just sit in a baggie for the next year or so until I can be bothered.

[Nicodemus Doloroso]

That's the spirit, Silver Phoenix! I'm still looking forward to see what you put together, even if it's after the competition is over.

 

Great stuff, everyone. Tons of creativity shown in this thread. That's why I love the Inquisition -- so much room for that.

 

Glad to hear you're feeling better SlaveToDarkness. Hope you still finish you entry, I'm intrigued by the ideas you posted.

1 Henchman by the 30th November, so be it, challenge accepted.

 

Well that went well, made and primed was as far as I got due to a massive arthritic attack that put my painting hand out of action for 3 weeks, couldn't even hold a brush or figure.

 

Will try to get finished though.

[WarriorFish]

That's bad news indeed, hope you're feeling much better now. I look forward to seeing your completed model though :tu:

[spafe]

Is this going to be a poll/comp or have I misunderstood? (kept checking back perdiodically but no news yet)

[WarriorFish]

All in good time spafe, things are a little busy at the moment but it will be dealt with :tu:

[spafe]

Ah cool, sorry, didnt mean to hassle or owt, was jsut wondering if it was still in the pipeline :)

[WarriorFish]

No problem, it has been a little while but it will definitely be finished properly :)

[walter h]

Tried to vote, but wasn't able too. Liking the model by ,Pathatrick. Excellent work by all.

[SW1]

Just having a snoop around these and all the entries looked great. Might help inspire me to get something going =][= wise. ;)

[WarriorFish]

You won't find better variation in what you can do here SW1! Hopefully we can have another event before too long so best get your fancy hat on ;)

[SW1]

Yeah ... I'd be interested in doing something =][= related. I've a few candidate currently being stripped of paint. ;)

[Kilofix]

The more I think about it, the more I agree that =I= challenges should be about single or very small number of Henchmen miniatures. Since with =I= it's all about customization / personalization.

 

However, for some focus, perhaps we could set context, themes or situations, for which we would build appropriate minis.

 

For example:

 

Your Inquisitor needs a Henchman to infiltrate some high ranking noble's social gathering, while at the same time carrying a covert weapon and Auspex. What would your Henchman look like?

 

Your Inquisitor needs a trio of Henchmen to purge a slum gang's hideout. What would your Henchmen trio look like?

 

Your Inquisitor needs a Henchman to take over communication duties. What would your Henchman look like?

 

Etc.

[WarriorFish]

You'll have to see what the mods conjure up I guess, but they're some good ideas. The only way is up from here Maybe next time we can get some sig banners for the event to help spread the word like the ETL and Regiments ones?

I feel your sig is ruined somewhat by the white backgrounds on your increasing array of honours Kilo, if you could provide/link me the source images it wouldn't take me long to scale them down nicely for you with transparency Obviously no need to provide the Guard and Inquisitorial source files

Well they say better late than never, thanks to the wonder of modern medicine.

You know the challenge was for only one model right? Your desire to repent is clearly strong :lol:

I have to paint whilst I can.

I'm also in the process of completing 3 more Inquisitors, 2 more Psykers, a couple of Stormtroopers to flesh out the above, 20 PAGK, 10 TAGK and a GK Libby. Plus 2 chimeras, 2 Leman Russ, 1 Valkyrie and a Land raider.

Think i'll be nearly done then
