Unboxing Purgatory's Moloch

It's been a while since I've posted anything, so here's a little something for your Monday evening - unboxing Moloch from Purgatory.

Five Hour Painting Challenge - Bobby B

During my ongoing hiatus from blogging, I decided to take up Necropocalypse's Five Hour Challenge. I wasn't entirely sure what model to go with to do it but after some nudging, I went for Purgatory's Bobby B, their event only model.

Purgatory's Siren - A Closer Look

For the final A Closer Look for a little while, I had quite a choice to make. In one hand I had the new Toughest Girls in the Galaxy Freebies from Raging Heroes' second Kickstarter. In the other I had Siren from Purgatory. There are probably dozens of blogs and videos about the former already, so I'm going with Siren (whom I like more anyway ;) )

Playing with Purple - Hannibal Part 1

With my Batman gang finished, it's now time to turn my focus back to Purgatory, and that means Hannibal.

As I've already painted one Purgatory piece so far in a white suit - Saint Peter - I decided I needed a different colour for Hannibal, but one that was similarly outgoing. It didn't take me long to settle on purple.

Erishkigal from Purgatory - A Closer Look

Today's Closer Look is focused on Purgatory's latest lovely lady - The Host of The Soul Train, the Fallen Angel Erishkigal.

Showcase - Keysha from Purgatory

It's Purgatory time again! Their third competition closes today, so it's about time I showed off my entry for it. Keysha was Purgatory's third release, and the only regular "trooper" so far - the others are what I'd call bosses or sidekicks.

Anyhow. Keysha. Paint.

First Look - Purgatory Salute Releases Unboxed!

A couple of months back, I asked the guys at Purgatory a cheeky question - could I get my Salute order before Salute, so I could put up pretty pictures for people? They said yes, so, despite the best efforts of the postal system, a couple of nice boxes arrived yesterday.

Purgatory have two new models available at Salute - Bobby B, who is a limited Show/Event only model, and Hannibal, who is a standard release. Bobby B will also be available online over event weekends. Both models are resin.

Unboxing Keysha from Purgatory

Last week Purgatory started sending out orders of their third model - Keysha, which I was rather excited about. In fact, I like the guys at Purgatory a lot, and they like it when people paint their miniatures and enter them into their contests, which I did for both of their previous releases - Death and Saint Peter. The way Purgatory do things is that if you win a competition for one figure, you win a copy of the next one they release. So, seeing as I won the contest for Saint Peter (I've probably mentioned it before, but it's still a pretty new and awesome feeling, so I'm going to keep saying it), here is Keysha.

Practicing Dark Skin Tones (NSFW)

With Purgatory starting sending out their Keysha models, I thought it was about time that I got some practice in at painting dark skin tones, as I've never successfully completed one on a mini before!

With that in mind, I attacked my Hasslefree bag (most of which I picked up in a binge, back in October) and came out with Misha, one of several nudes I picked up for just such a purpose. With Misha being a nude mini, some might consider the pictures beyond the jump NSFW.

St Peter from Purgatory - Single Figure Winner

Back in September, I won the single figure category of Purgatory's first painting contest for Death. The reward for winning that contest was a copy of St Peter (unboxing here), which gave me a chance to enter the next contest, which finished last weekend. 

It turns out that something between me and Purgatory miniatures seems to have clicked, as St Peter followed Death and also picked up the win in the single figure category!

Saint Peter by Purgatory

As I may have mentioned in passing (or not stopped talking about, depending on how many groups you're stuck in with me), I won the Single Figure category of Purgatory's painting competition for their first miniature, Death.

My prize for winning was a copy of their next figure, St Peter, who arrived earlier this week.

Death by Purgatory - Single Figure Category Winner

As some of you may know, the guys at Purgatory ran a competition to celebrate the release of their first miniature, Death. After picking up one initially then being given one at the Wamp Workshop, I thought it would be a bit silly not to enter. I managed to get her in a couple of days before the deadline (30th September) for my second comp entry of the year (after the Arkham City Limits contest in March) and I found out yesterday that she won her category!

Death from Purgatory - Up for Pre-Order

Our friends over at Purgatory have put their first ever miniature up for Pre-Order!

Death is a 32mm scale high quality resin model and the first representation of Eve to hit production.
