"I thought we got off from this bloody Island already!"
"What nightmare is this? And THAT?"
"We planned to have a nice pique-nique around that barrel of Bunnahabhain, but it seems to have other ideas. A fit of pique? Or is it taking a peek on that cheeky airline stewardess."
So, we are travelling on the Challenge Island again. This is something for Piper's Peak. It is a barrel mimic by Toad King Castings. I had never heard of the company until I got my monthly miniature mystery box from Your Model Box couple of months ago. They seem to create all kinds of nice and strange miniatures.
This one goes on my W list for being a wacky idea, which I got on the last moments on the Challenge X. I will score this as a single 28mm miniature. Noel had very nice idea of lists as well, I might join him, since most likely I'll be squirreling through this Challenge. There is not that much need to paint any miniature, since there won't be any games, so I can paint what I like.

From Minion Teemu:
I really like how you achieved such a good looking tongue for that barrel just using a single layer of contrast paint. And in general, that barrel looks exactly like all the barrels I have finished on the following morning...
Great looking wacky barrel!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thanks Iain!
DeleteThat is a great looking multi-eyed demonic barrel, Teemu. Also, nice bit of self-minioning as well. ;P
ReplyDeleteYeah, I thought the posts just didn't look right, so I did my best to make it look right. :)
DeleteThat looks awesome, I'll have to check out that company at some stage.
ReplyDeleteYeah, they have some pretty nice miniatures. Naturally, at the moment, lots of the stuff is sold out.
DeleteI am pretty sure I have drunk from this barrel in my youth...nice work Teemu.
ReplyDeleteYes, it is a very common species...
DeleteAlcohol doesn’t agree with me... good fun!
ReplyDeleteThanks, this was a fun little project.
Deletehahaha! Very cute model
ReplyDeleteThank you, and it is a much better looking when painted. :)
DeleteThat is wonderfully weird 😁
ReplyDeleteThank you, it is nice to paint something completely weird from time to time.
DeleteGreat model... and great posting format :-D
ReplyDeleteThank you, just trying to fill in the void.
