Welcome to the twelfth, and definitely not the last, monthly painting competition (#PaintComp) here in the OnTableTop forums.

Taking a page from @warbossd gaming club book as inspiration there will be a key word or phrase set at the start of the month and anybody who would like to participate can paint something up, build something or engage in whatever creative outlet strikes them, as long as there is at least a tenuous link to the key word.

Then, not later than the 25th of each month, post your results here (not in the project system!) and we all get to do a community vote on it! Voting will open the day after entries close and will close at midnight local time on the 28th with results posted the following day.

There are no prizes involved, only fun! It’s not mandatory. It’s just for fun.

This month’s key word is:

Electric

Do with that what you will…

Interesting choice. I’m doing mostly fantasy and historical at the moment but I definitely have something for this. I’m in the middle of painting to complete my Spring Clean Challenge and once that is done I will be good to go. Might be a last minute entry though 🙂

I have the perfect mini already undercoated and ready to paint. It just jumped to the front of the queue.

Someone couldn’t have said ‘Electric’ before I painted Storm of MCP… that would be too easy.

This is a tough one. A very good theme to try and find something for

Here’s my entry: Jörmungand from Mythic Battles: Ragnarök. This thing really stretched the limits of my 8×11″ backdrop…

Couldn’t miss another month’s competition. My painting area is the colder part of my living space, so here is my last-minute entry, a roughly printed Plasma Reactor designed by War Machine
