  • The masquerade of murder returns! A new game of Vampires Amongst Us has begun. Unmask the killers, trust no one, and try to survive the night. Find out more and sign up now!
Welcome to the next instance of Turning the World to Darkness competition!

In the Turning the World to Darkness 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 undead!

The theme of this competition, as chosen by Sception, the winner of the September/October 2023 competition, is "We Are Legion"! 🧟‍♂️🧟‍♀️🧟‍♂️

Hordes of cannon fodder roam the lands under the cursed moon! Get ready to bring some to the table!
You are also encouraged to use models or parts from whatever army you feel like, not restricted to undead only. It could be a single model or a whole unit of them, of all scales and sizes.

Original models (sculpts) and conversions are allowed.

The Prize: The winner earns the glory and a place in the Hall of Infamy thread and a forum medal once they are available. The winner also gets to select the theme of the next painting challenge (note that the winner only has a weekend to present the decision, so please be prepared and available).

The Rules:
  • All models entered should not have been painted more than a year ago from the date the entry thread is closed. This will not be enforced but violators will politely be asked to retract their entry.
  • All miniatures presented must have been painted by the entrant.
  • Max one entry per person.
  • Max 3 images per entry (including pictures in collages), of reasonable size.
  • No voting for your own entry.
  • No model can be entered into several challenges.
  • Open entries and open voting. Everyone can see who painted what.
  • Models can be of any manufacturer and conversion but must fulfill all the criteria of the given theme.
  • If no decision on the next theme is made within a week of the winner announcement, the decision falls to the competition organizer.

The Schedule:

Week 1, Tuesday: Theme announcement and entry thread created
Week 6, Sunday: Entry thread closed. Voting thread opened.
Week 8, Sunday: Voting thread closed. Result announced. Winner asked about next theme.


This thread is now open for people to post their entries. Please state a name of the entry along with the pictures. The thread closes on the 17th of December at (roughly) 23:59 CET (but we are not in a hurry, we can easily extend it if someone needs to finish their entry). You can also comment and discuss in this thread, it is not restricted exclusively for entries.
 
I'm still feeling the hobby spirit, so for the first time maybe I'll try to have something for two of these in a row. Still working on test models to work out a paint scheme for my main idea, but if nothing congeals in the next week or two I still have a backup idea with a paint scheme already worked out and ready to go.
 
MedMos, (or anyone else in dilemma) - Don't take my theme "descriptions" as absolute guidelines...I do it to spice up and add a bit of flair to each thread, while giving a general direction.
Themes are always up for interpretation and "We Are Legion" certainly has diverse interpretation potential. 😉

Well, between burnout setting in and losing two days of painting this week to family stuff, I won't be able to finish the unit command on time.

If there are other potential entrants that would benefit from some extra time then I wouldn't object to pushing the deadline back a week. If not, I can enter the unit without command - I'm still pretty happy with the troops I've already finished.

It's that time of year, don't worry about it.

Unas the slayer - how's your stuff going? will you have something by the end of sunday? If not, would another week make the difference, or have the holidays set in & devoured your hobby time as well?
Chainrasp horde, 20 models unit... i took the pics today, gonna post them tomorrow.
Don't know if someone could use that extra week, i have no issues with it.
