Brambleten Paints... ArcWorlde's Father Griffmas - Part 4

I cut it rather close, but after I published Part 3 of painting Father Griffmas on Boxing Day, I succeeded in getting him submitted to the 'Eavier Metal Winter Comp!

What was under my Christmas Tree

Brambleten Paints... ArcWorlde's Father Griffmas - Part 3

Merry Christmas and welcome to Part 3 of Brambleten Paints... Father Griffmas! With Christmas Day passed and the Eavier Metal comp deadline nearing (30th Dec), it's time to get a shift on!

Here he is, as he was at the end of Part 2:

So, pretty much a load of stuff left to do on him. To start off, I decided to work on his base rather than him.

Tis's the Season

We all from Noobs and Their paintbrush would like to wish you all 

Brambleten Paints... ArcWorlde's Father Griffmas - Part 2

Welcome to Part 2 of Brambleten Paints ArcWorlde's Father Griffmas. Today we shall see exactly what happens when I lose mojo and direction.

At the end of Part One, Griffmas had been started, with his flesh mostly done and his hair mid way through.

Since then though, I've lost my focus on painting and haven't really fancied it. Over the last couple of evenings, knowing my deadlines are looming closer (this guy is due before 31st December for the 'Eavier Metal comp) I've sat down with the intention of just picking up the brush and doing something. 

Brambleten Paints... ArcWorlde's Father Griffmas - Part 1

Welcome to the first article in my "Brambleten Paints..." Series. The aim of this series, much like Shamikebab's "On The Desk" is to go through the entire process of painting a miniature, broken down into stages. I usually stick to just showing finished content on the blog, but I also want to offer up more paint related content to you guys instead of most of my articles being unboxings of one sort or another (my wallet is relieved to hear this).

So, what better place to start than with a miniature I picked out to paint for the 'Eavier Metal Christmas Painting Comp. The restriction put in place on choosing what to paint was that it must be somewhat related to Christmas, Winter or New Year.

My first thought was to choose The Perfect Present from Kabuki, but I'm also painting a mini for the Another World contest which finishes at the end of November, so didn't want to dive into a scale I hadn't painted before while trying to paint other things as well.

That left my only other Christmas related piece - ArcWorlde's Father Griffmas, from Warploque Miniatures.
