Judgement Day Challenge - Painting Judge Dredd Miniatures

It's always nice when you discover someone has the same unhealthy obsessions as yourself. In my case, it's Judge Dredd. Why this has not translated into a massive pile of Judge Dredd minatures is down to many reasons, but none of them a worthy excuse. To that end, myself and another hobbyist/blogger have made an accord. We have decided to embark on a common project called Judgment Day. Each of us will post a Judge Dredd related miniature every two weeks, so between the pair of us we shall be posting a new mini every week. This should lead to a sizable population increase in our respective mega cities.
Will we manage to keep the momentum up? Who knows, but it's going to be a fun time. Each of us is posting to our blog as the project continues, at [URL="http://mrsaturdaysmumblings.blogspot.ie/"]Mr Saturday's Mumblings[/URL] and [URL="https://sho3box.wordpress.com/"]Sho3box[/URL].
First up from me, it's Judge Mortis.

I've been reading 2000AD since I was eight years old, and collecting miniatures since I was twelve. Odd then, that this is the first 2000AD miniature I've ever painted. It's nothing less than a crime. I've always been a huge fan of the dark judges, and Judge Mortis, while not as much of a rockstar as Judge Death, is a favourite of mine. It's the insta-rot thing he does I reckon. He sure has a way with thossseee sssinerssss.
his particular incarnation of Mortis is the original Citadel Miniatures version. He's quite small, but has lots of lovely detail. Hell, he even has a dimension jump on his belt, a vital piece of kit for your dark judge about town I feel. I have his brotherssss from the same release in stasis, no doubt they'll make an appearance of a future Judgement Day post down the line. His base is a resin Microart Studios base with some extra debris added.
From now on, expect a Judgement Day post from one of us every Monday. Next week I bring you another old enemy of Mega City One.
