| Hi All,
After the Unhallowed release, I'll be starting up another Uncommonly Common Painting Challenge. So, my question is, what commons and uncommons from the new set would you like to see a repainting competition on?
From the figures I've seen in the previews at WOTC, there seems to be a few good choices.
But, what do YOU think?

| | How about some of the Large Uncommons? Either the Caller or the Wolf look nice for re-paint/conversion fodder. | |

| Bugbear Gang Leader seems an obvious choice for the common.
I like the Giant Owl, Intellect Devourer, and Vampire Dire Wolf as options for the uncommon.

| | I've gotta go for the High Inqisitor now. Heck i may even participate in the re-paint contest. The Strahd Zombie would be my second pick, she needs some color in her cheeks. | |

| No worries, mate.
I'm really pulling for the High Inquisitor. I see a lot of potential in this one for playing around with lighting effects. Should be fun!  | |

| My choice is for the Redspawn Arcaniss. His dragon head isn't quite Red Dragon enough to preclude other choices, and the armour etc. is currently plain black -- definitely needs a repaint.
I'll be painting/modding one anyways to represent Wyrmlord Koth from Red Hand of Doom. | |

| Wow !!!
Everyone seems to have favorites, and they're all good ideas. So, what about this; this time for the contest, you can choose the common or uncommon of your choice. We all know what they look like out of the box and your jobs are to enhance them - whatever they are.
What do you all think?
Are you up for a true open test of individual creatism or do you want me to tell you what you must paint? The discussion is open for comments. Either way, the contest starts real soon.
Also, if we all agree on the anything goes idea, there will be only one prize regardless of what you decide to paint - common or uncommon, (no rares).

| If it wasn't a rare, I would say the large astral construct is an obvious choice
