March! We start this month’s models a little bit later than the start of the month with the Dimensional Shambler from CMON’s Cthulhu: Death May Die.

This thing sat on my painting desk for months – maybe a year(?) – as I stalled out on the blue crystals depicted in the artwork. It was seeing the thing on my desk constantly and a combination of Monster March and that “just fucking get it done and out of here” which eventually got me motivated enough to finish it off, and now I’m quite happy to have done so.

I’m still not super-happy with the blue crystals as they’re a bit discordant with the rest of the figure, but then I guess it’s a Lovecraftian creature, and it’s a board game model, so I’m just going to go with “good enough” and be happy with the fact that it being completed allows me to go and work on some other DMD monsters next instead of being cockblocked by this one.

I didn’t have any of my DMD Investigators handy for the scale shot (and Berkeley was busy!) so we have a pair of the CMON Night of the Living Dead models here instead,

As mentioned earlier, one of the community’s painting challenges that’s often out there is something called Monster March. It, rather unsurprisingly deals with the painting of Monsters during – get this – the month of March! It’s not offcially running this year, but much like Fembruary which is on a sort of hiatus, I’m happy to use anything I can to motivate me to finish specific models!
