Many Mithril Pages @ Faerylands

This is very new and good idea. I am in, and it might help me to take my brushes out from the attic.

It's always a good feeling to see a member bringing friendship, life and spirit here, even when it is an orc.

Interesting idea Orc

Indeed.... hm

It's an idea.

Hopefully, very soon, I can devote more time to painting. I've sort of let things slip in the last few years. Time to up my game again.

Good Idea Master Maenas!!!, so.... we can start next month and let the people decide if they want to joing us!

Any idea to choose the Theme every month? By other side need someone  to write to mithril.ie and explain ours idea, I hope they can suport this project like to show some photos from the contest in their web!! Who can do this?

Come on Guys!!! let's do it!!!!!!

I would say, let's try it and if we get it working and with people participating we can then try to contact mithril with some "results" in hand

Let's start a list with monthly ideas (numbers just for reference and/or future randomization):

1. Ladies and lassies of middle earth
2. Maya month, and it is not the bee!
3. Trolls or the thing you don't want to face in the night.
4. Fighting dudes, like in the batman tv show or even better.
5. Ringbearers, Hey I did wear it, you don't?
6. Black is the absence of colour, or the Nazgul month
7. Manly men, or how to wear a long beard and it's multiple uses
8. Mikea or middle earth furniture, plants and nature friends
9. Plate armour, is it a myth or not?
10. To the spears!! or the month of the rider
11. Are all orcs green?
12. The third breakfast or how to became a good hobbit by "the attic warden"
13. Is it hot down there? or the "southern thing" month
14. To elf or not to elf or the "do they have pointy ears?" month.
15. Postcards from middle earth, or which vignette I choose for this month?

Well I wanted to put in some distinctive names "to break the ice" as we say in my country, everyone can add more!!

Edited point 11, to change it according to arthadan's suggestion.

Yup you are completely right Arthadan, and that's precisely the intention of tue 11.th question, just to give relevance to it xD
But maybe putting "Are all orcs green?" would have been better so I proceed to change it now ^^
On the dates and periods of painting they will be a little bit flexible, no worries, this is not a super active site either so longer periods should be expected

Point taken!

If we're going to have more than one month consider me in!

Ok!!
So far we have these participants:
Orc
Milo
Gerold
Gondolin
Arthadan
Maenas
--------------
Gavin ?
Thingol ?
Ddaines ?

I will roll a d20 die this afternoon and see which is the randomly chosen theme!!
Let's start this very first from the 2nd of October and give time till the 15th of November to finish the mini, we can then expand or contract the time period to fit everyone participating.

This way all of you that are reading these lines can decide to come over here and participate! We will learn from each others techniques and experiences, your level is not important, participation is.

I'm not sure if I'll be "in", in this first few rounds.... why !?!?! Actually I do not have any unpainted mithril miniatures at home. All 900 are already painted... and new one MS614 I didn't buy yet.... and I do not have plans to buy figures only for painting competition

I will wait for some time... or I can be a judge in beggining...

Master Thingol, if you need mithril miniatures ? just ask, you know I have plenty in my attics.

You have painted ALL of your miniatures Nino!! You may as well strip the paint off and start over again to give you something to do
