The theme for this months HOARD is Dark Terrors! Otherwise know as the Halloween Hoard This can be any sort of miniature 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 figures, 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 September, 2015. There has been a recent request for all things Dragon-y and that would fit in perfectly with a Halloween Hoard. A Duel of Dragons perhaps? I'm partial to carnivorous pumpkin beasties myself...

Pumpkin Beasties? Tis the season, I suppose. We're already working on a handful of Halloween frights for this month. Plan is to have both pixel and traditional offerings this month, rather than just one or the other. Here's a preview of our first pass at something seasonal

Not necessarily. Terror, Halloween, Harvest related
As always, we welcome submissions, even if they don't exactly fit the theme

Working on final formatting and color adjustments for print now. What we've got for this month is as follows. Pixel art: werewolf, Alucard and demon form Alucard from the Hellsing anime, several possessed skeletons, and a Lovecraftian tentacle monster. Traditional art: the pumpkin monster shown near the start of the thread, Alucard from the Castlevania game series, a Mum-mum mummy from Banjo Kazooie, and finally a silly fanservice evil witch on broom. Happily I've been doing formatting and color shifts as I go along, so they should all be good to go shortly

I was aiming for haystack and ended up with brush pile (or your brain on drugs) I'll have to play with textures before I post it

I suppose I could post my blank template and call it the blancmange... EDIT-- New textures are better, but still a little work needed

Wow! Way to finish strong! I've got some catching up to do, like launching the new Horde for October, but I'll get right on these. I really appreciate the layout work you've done, makes my life much easier.

Can I help out in any way? PM me if you'd like cutfiles made. While the pumpkins on the registration marks is cute, doesn't that get in the way of the machine actually reading them correctly?
