At a first glance, "Moustache" doesn't sound very challenging. How do you propose to make it so?
Well, paint a unit of figures at least five of who sport moustaches? Something like that, can't say I put much serious thought into it! lol Isn't that enough?

Not challenging? I'm rubbish at painting moustaches. I'd go for 'baldies' as a theme any day!  :D ;)
Exactly!  ::)

All five figures must be women! They must all have either a moustache, a monobrow or both (a whole round of Frida Kahlo paintings would certainly be colourful).

I just realised, after going through my stuff today after a week of illness, that a fantasy theme would be good idea. While not highly attractive in its form, I do believe that all members of this forum, and indeed those doing the comp, should have 5 fantasy miniatures.
It would be a great opportunity to paint up all those old Citadel and all that stuff. Can't come up with a way to narrow it, or make it more interesting at the moment though :/

^^^^ plus quite a few of us are waiting for their Reapers KS figures to show up in March ;)
A CANADIAN local hobby store with a small selection of historical wargames miniatures (mainly from Warlords). They also have a great selection of paint and hobby accessories from Vallejo, Army painter, AK Interactive, Green Stuff World and more.; https://tistaminis.com/

That's how I painted my paquadorian women for the Chicken Race on the Arumbaya so I am all for it. All natural. None of them has ever heard of waxing their upper lip. Nor the Brazilian variant.

While my collection is 99% fantasy, I don't support it as a theme. Didn't we start the last season with that very theme?

Some suggestions:
* Undead
* Anthropomorphic animals
* Casualties
* Flying critters

I support the recently mentioned moustache and/or nudity themes!

Nudes w/ moustaches would allow me to paint those Celts I've had locked away. ;)

How abt something from your own country's history? Anything that comes from an actual historical period, so as to prevent cavemen from entering the picture...

I'd love to find a reason to paint one of those Eureka Stukadactyls which I don't own, don't need but which looks like so much fun.

It was more of a "let's decrease the lead pile" idea :)

I'm sure it will shrink if you give me all your fantasy junk. ;)

How about:
  • Bloodbowl
  • Antartica
  • Terrorist
  • Aquatic animals
Hear! Sons of Kahless
Hear! Daughters too.
The blood of battle washes clean.
The Warrior brave and true.
We fight, we love, and then we kill.
Our lives burn short and bright.
Then we die with honor and join our
fathers in the Black Fleet where we
battle foreve

Bloodbowl is surely much too specific...?
The others may work.
