2015 Bartertown Members Painting Challenge!!!

Re: 2015 Bartertown Members Painting Challenge!!!
Yes I do host from Photobucket, I will upload some pics via Bartertown. It is fully assembled and pinned (the wings aren't glued since I will be painting them separately) so you can see the size compared to other models. Unfortunately it has been snowing non-stop the last 5 days and roads have been closed around me so I have yet to get anything bigger to compare it to (Knight, Baneblade, Stompa, etc) -You know you live in Canada when the plows are taken off the roads due to it being dangerous.
I figured a point cost would be a challenge on something like this since it isn't exactly common to have which is why I wanted the community to talk about it - I personally do not care how much it is worth, it's getting painted either way LOL. How much would my Bio-Titan be priced at (you can see it in the pics)? I have played it vs Imperial Knights and I know it trumps it in size but it is so Organic that it is hard to actually show a comparison to it.
Apologies for the low resolution, had to shrink it to fit Bartertown upload standards (that and it doesn't fit in my lightbox atm).

Personally, I'd put the Heirophant in the 15 - 20 range, as well.

All right, I'm in on this too if it's not too late to join.
I'll start posting some pics before too long (he said, laughing at himself already).
Also, since he's from Canuckistan there's an automatic divisor instead of a multiplier.
Just kidding. 20 points for something that size seems fair to me - the quality of painting on his other models indicates he's not going to slop bright purple and pink on the thing and call it done.
(Yes, I had someone do that on their Trollblood army in a Journeyman League I ran a couple years ago.)

Re: 2015 Bartertown Members Painting Challenge!!!
Alright guys, since no one seems to want the second place in the challenge I'll take it with 2 points.

Need to break the ice and get some minis on the board...
So here we are...3 Bob Murch models I finished to use for another round play testing Strange Aeons Solo...looks like 3 points! They aren't as muddy in real life...damn crappy lighting...
Now, off to finishing up the epic orks I am working on...

Re: 2015 Bartertown Members Painting Challenge!!!
So 3e I've had a chance to see one in the flesh and it is bigger than I thought. I could be convinced to reverse my position on the 20 pts. It's not quite double the size of a knight but I think 18 pts (10 pts for a knight plus the 8 pts for the land raider for it to stand on ) is a fair assessment.
Positive feedback I have left for but have not received any in return: Stephen, oldgamer56

Re: 2015 Bartertown Members Painting Challenge!!!
Ok, I think we can all agree on 20 points for the Harridan due to the size and simplicity of the point system. Now all of you get painting!!!!
