Entry Thread: Turning the World to Darkness: "Hungry for More"

  • 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 January/February 2024 competition, is "Hungry for More"! 🦷

The ravening hordes march forward with unquenched thirst!
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 14th of April 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 have something I can put up this weekend, but I'm also perfectly ok postponing if we need more time for other entrants.

Edit, got distracted by family stuff. will still have pics up tonight, but it'll be late my time / well into the morning for you folks on the continent.

Blood-Starved Beasts

Once proud champions of the Legion of Sacrament, these vampires went mad with hunger during centuries trapped in Ulgu, the Realm of Shadow. Now returned as accursed Vargheists, they can finally slake their terrible thirst.

Since officially breaking with my 'green and green alone' period for my OBR, I've been wanting to revisit my Soulblight and experiment with adding some contrasting bits of color to the existing scheme. A unit of blood-starved Vargheists, painted for a Vanguard event at my local Warhammer store, provided an opportunity to do so with a splash of blood effect.

I think it turned out pretty well, and contrasts particularly nicely with the snow bases. While I don't plan on making the rest of the army anything close to this blood-splattered, I will probably go back and add just a touch here and there.

For the record, I'm fine with a delay if it gives others time to finish & photograph their entries.
