The theme for this month's HOARD is About the Castle - For sale! This can be any sort of miniature figure or model on the above theme or feel free to submit miniatures off theme. If you submit a figure, they must include both front and rear art, have a proper trimming outline, and include instructions for multi-part models. Recolors and figure mods are encouraged, and even uncolored designs are welcome. No nudity or sexuality, but bloody gory and horrifying is encouraged. If you have questions about how to design your entries, like formats, resolution, and stuff like that, see the HOARD GUIDELINES in this forum category. Entries for the Hoard will be accepted until the last day of October, 2021. October - About the Castle - For Sale! - Markets and Stores Because it's not all sieges and pageants at the castle, who sells the boiling oil and the flower garlands anyways? Why castle-to-castle traveling merchants and tinkers of course! And it doesn't have to human merchant stalls at the castle, perhaps the "Orcs Rights to Civilization" lobbyists have a booth set up at the market, or the Elven Temperance League. Stalls, push-c arts, or street vendors all welcome at the Castle Marketplace!

Do you know what happens if your knights spend too much time hanging about the castle? The questing beast comes to inspire them to action! Obviously I was inspired by wyvern

You can't have a market without a market cross- No seriously, it's Medieval law. Which gives the two entrepeneurs license to sell their products.

"About the Castle - For Sale! - Markets and Stores Stalls, push-c arts, or street vendors all welcome at the Castle Marketplace!"So OK - basic/initial idea for just single simple figurine - maid selling (buying?) flowers. But ideas like appetite grow as you eat - so then the whole market showed up, with stalls, merchants, passers-by and customers - something like on the preview (well maybe I put too much on this collage - but this is a general picture of the idea and the atmosphere). Anyway I'd like it at least to be a coherent mini set - but dunno if can make it on time... chances are few, still will try

I like it. Even one flower girl mini would be more flower girl minis than are currently available.

Will this figure be making an appearance in the Castle Market this month? Well... can we do this way: let's try to involve forum users into the fun?So here's my conditional submission of the BW lineart version of Maid with Flowers (Florist Girl?) - already A-B side/view assembled, with all outlines and a tab, scaled 30 mm (from the feet to the eye line), JPG and PNG format - ready to be colored! IMHO it is a fairly simple mini for coloring, still offers many possibilities and variants of finishing. BTW this figurine is designed so it can be flipped horizontally and will still look natural, so there could be more versions:) So my idea is as follows - if users submit at least three TWO fully colored entries then let's include them (perhaps with horizontal versions added) in this hoard, otherways well... cancel / skip it.
Is that fair and acceptable?

Never many takers for the DIY pieces. After I finish my version of the flower girl I have a parts kit to upload, hopefully somebody will make something with it.

I'll be referring to this character as "Butterface", and closing up this overdue Hoard so I can get it uploaded. mesper - can I include the uncolored version for others to work on?

Wow - nice job here!!! I'll try to post tomorrow (or rather in the morning as it's already 2:15 after midnight here:) my colored version, if that's not too late? Ad. BW version - but it's already available here - so maybe you can add information in the Hoard set that the free BW coloring version can be downloaded from the CW forum?

OK made it One figurine without the "ground" - so mini can be placed/mounted on any other different ground version, more suited to the user's base etc. Enjoy
EDIT: Oops - I forgot to change the color of the flowers! But... maybe both are from the same store and have the same offer?
