September's Hobby Challenge



Our current hobby challenge is coming to an end and us Dad’s got thinking… maybe it would be cool to get you guys involved too!?

The themes we pick are intended to challenge, so for this we’ve picked ‘something new’. For this one it could be a miniature from a different army that you’ve always had your eye on, it could be a colour you’ve never been brave enough to attempt, it could be that sweet conversion you have been dreaming of for a while but weren’t quite sure you could pull off…

The challenge will start on the 1st September. We’ll post a weekly compilation of the submissions on Twitter and then on the 1st October we’ll post our top three favourites. 

There’s no prizes, other than the satisfaction of completing something you’ve never done before, and the ability to hobby-shame your friends that didn’t manage to complete their entry in time. 

So, pick your entry, follow us on twitter, subscribe to the blog and get posting your weekly progress pictures with the hash tag #4dhobby. In the mean time, let us know what you're planning to enter.

  1. I'm going to paint something yellow. Never painted yellow before so we'll see how it goes. Dad Rich makes it look good so I've a lot to do to achieve something comparable

  2. I'm in. I'm going to do some greenstuff work on my Calth Contemptor. My comfort level there is purity seals and the like. It's been a while since I've really done anything more complex.

    1. Even purity seals are beyond me so I'm already looking forward to seeing what you do!

  4. Damn! I just built and painted something "new" a few weeks ago - but I suppose this is an excuse to do something even newer!

    3. Got the ball rolling on both Twitter and Instagram, the latter of which I've been using more. Better late than never!

  8. Will you accept an Age of Sigmar entry? I've been 40K only since I broke into the hobby. Sylvaneth and Fantasy is something completely new for me. I know it doesn't fit your 30K/40K dedicated site but figured I'd ask.
