Participation in my humble challenge has grown steadily over the years, and last year <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/pmpainting.blogspot.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Matt<\/a> and <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/pmpainting.blogspot.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Azazel<\/a> in particular really showed us what can be done in just thirty-one days! I look forward to hosting this challenge every year!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyway, what is Monster May(hem)? Why, it\u2019s the month you paint monsters, of course. Any monster will do, although it should be a proper MONSTER; no skeletons or orcs. I mean something truly beastly; like a wyvern or a shoggoth or an owlbear. Your monster(s)  doesn&#8217;t have to be strictly a fantasy miniature, and it may be any scale and from any manufacturer. Wanna see past Monster May(hem) stuff? Just check the archives for May; staring in 2018. or, if you&#8217;re too lazy to do that, you can get a pretty good idea what I&#8217;m talking about by looking at <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/angrypiper.com\/?p=4552\" target=\"_blank\">this post<\/a> and <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/angrypiper.com\/?p=4550\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"4550\" target=\"_blank\">this post.<\/a> Everyone is welcome, of course. Just inform of me your intent to participate in the comments below. I will link to your stuff throughout the month, and (if it&#8217;s not there already) add your blog\/website\/social media to the blogroll on the side! If you don&#8217;t have a site of your own and still want to participate, I&#8217;ll happily host your pictures here and ensure you get proper attribution!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ve got a few plans already for this year; but as usual I&#8217;m not sure if I&#8217;ll get to all of them.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So&#8230;who&#8217;s in?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s that time of year&#8230; Here at Dead Dick&#8217;s Tavern, Monster May(hem) kicks off the annual painting challenges that I look forward to most: Monster May(hem) in May, Forgotten Heroes in June, and the Summer of Scenery in July and August (Dave gives us an extra month so we really have no excuse).
