I, moths, oath three more sprues of 1/72 Italari WW2 Americans (the retooled 6120 sprue) and one Pegasus Hobbies German casualty with rifle.  That's 18 riflemen, 6 Thompson / M3 SMG gunners, 6 ammo carriers, 3 Browning M1919 gunners, 3 60mm M2 mortar guys, 3 radio operators, 3 Bazooka guys, 3 BAR gunners, 3 tankers, and one German who wasn't even supposed to be here today. (Some of the riflemen are going to end up on heavy weapons teams.)

Well since there was a tie on what I should do, I'm just going to do something else! Mostly because I have an idea for battle damage I'd like to try. For June, I oath these 4 counts as 40k Crusaders. I'm not sure what they're from originally since they've been out of the package for ages now and weren't some big name to start with. Any help identifying them? The backpacks n' shields are awkward to get in the screen and my points don't matter anyways! Edit: Ashcans found it for me. Junkers from Urban War by Mammoth.

If you want to you could take photos as you do your conversion, but that's optional: the main thing is that I need before/after photos. Thanks for the reminder! I just went back and edited the B&A pics into my original oath post. Edit: I suppose I could put them here as well for convenience.

Decided to take the chill path this oath season: just oath whatever, don't worry about oathing every month, bonus points, quarterly events, etc. If I win stuff, cool. If not, also cool.  With that said, I oath an  Ariadnan Line Kazak , from Corvus-Belli's Infinity range.

Starting small, with every intention of adding to this months oath as I have a few things in the pipeline to work on (but with the vagaries of real life and having two kids, I totally expect this plan to get knocked sideways) These, like last months oath, have been languishing on my desk for an age waiting for the inspiration to hit. I, enri, hereby oath to paint one pair of UCM Falcon Gunships for Dropzone Commander, scale is 10mm and the manufacturer is Hawk Wargames

I, forkbanger, oath the Pelgar Mystics Dreadball team for the month of June - that's 8 bendy armed alien pacifists from Mantic Games, who'll be a themed group. They're really fun to use, until your opponent kicks the living poo poo out of your players.

Just finished browsing the slideshow, god drat everyone. Fine work! I was really happy to see a good variety of models and sizes. There was a stompa and a baneblade, tiny dropzone guys and 8 mm guys. I hope we can keep this up so the judges just get deluged with finished oaths of every shape and size.

I was gutted that I didn't finish my oath but really didn't want to try and hammer out a nightscythe with either no effort or cutting into my studying time. I have learnt and will be oathing everything I own once my final exam is over. Super annoyed that my terrain is part of a failed oath month now though, I thought it turned out well >: |

OK, JUDGES, IT IS YOUR TIME TO SHINE The complete slideshow of May's completed oaths is here: https://plus.google.com/u/0/photos/101792256154658567736/albums/5884929453098956369?authkey=COTc1qXJvpKL2gE It has been over 24 hours since I posted the slideshow for all the oathers to check through, and now it has come to this: 125 oathers 105 completed oaths 702 pictures 3 judges 1 ruling Judge Sole.Sushi, Judge Bachtere, and Judge thiswayliesmadness... Your task is now to choose your top 3 finished oaths from the month of May, plus your choice for the best Detektuv's Jurnal. Your first choice will earn the artist 3 points. Your second choice will earn the artist 2 points. Your third choice will earn the artist 1 point. A final point will be given by you to the person that best got across the Work In Progress task of this month's Detektuv's Jurnal. Look through the album for May. Look through the spreadsheets (many oathers put much detail into their Work In Progress pictorial). The pictures are group together by oather, with the completed pictures first, followed by the Work In Progress pictures, which should be easy to figure out (most start with base colors only). The fate of nations (actually these tiny plastic and metal things) is in your hands...I do not envy the task before you.

I'll go ahead and do a rare double-post to make sure this announcement gets made anyway... Detektuv’s Grab Bag News Due to the colossal amount of Grab Bag donations that have come in (with more on the way), I've changed up how the Grab Bag will work this time around. click here to check out the Grab Bag so far Keeping with tradition, every month, every person who completed an oath will have a chance to win someone from our massive goon-donated Grab Bag! This year, we have a TON of different models available, and even BOOKS (and audiobooks)! We'll change it up a bit this year and make a real 'grab bag' of pick'n'mix proportions - the winner of the Grab Bag draw will get a randomly selected bunch of loot, but because we have such a huge selection of prizes in the Grab Bag, you'll get to help influence what prizes you pick. Think of it like playing the grab-claw game at the amusement arcade. And who knows - you may get something rare, something you're really looking for, something you can trade with another goon or fellow player, or something just completely random!

Fix posted:You've aged, man. You got old. I just don't want these young pups to get hurt. You know me-- I hear people talking about lots of models, and I just start getting all crazy. You try to go straight. You try to take the Oath thread easy. Hell, they even start making rules so that you don't go all crazy and get yourself banned, even worse, cause the young kids to get banned imitating you because they think it's cool... But then you're always working with a safety net, always safe with the idea of failure. Funny thing, failure-- the moment you're looking over your shoulder, trying to keep one step ahead of it is the moment that it finally catches up to you. And then you give in... I mean, it's easier to not paint, to not strive for glory, right? Watch some TV, spend some time with friends and family, watch the Oaths roll on by without trying anymore, because it's safe-- just like the safety of no-consequence Oathing. Best to just give it all up and be happy. And you think you are. Then, one day you see a new Oath generation pushing their model count, egging each other on. You feel your heart quicken-- feel the rush of blood through your body. You fight down the urge to show them a thing or two, because you don't want to start trouble, don't want to make a commotion. You give them a concerned warning, trying to keep them from starting down that same path of trouble that you once blazed. And then you back away, because you want to play by polite society's Oath rules. Then some rear end in a top hat goes and calls you old; starts pushing you. You're going to just keep on walking, but you realize one thing: There ain't no rule against Toxxing this year.  I, Tadhg, do hereby Oath 40 Wood Elf Glade Guard, 20 Wood Elf Scouts, 3 Wood Elf Banner Bearers, and 1 Treeman Ancient (all from GW Warhammer Fantasy) for the Month of June  And I  to finish it, or post a banme thread. Victory at all costs, or death in trying! DEATH OR GLORY!

What is a banme? Is it like a banana? Can you eat it? Is it tasty? Does it cure repeated oathbreaking?  Original oath post: Pierzak posted:I, Pierzak, swear to paint 2 old-style Preta Hungries in the month of June! They are made by Corvus Belli for Infinity, 28mm scale. I, Pierzak, add to my oath 10 were-cat not-African warriors  They are a Themed Group. Also, 3 not-Asian monks. Everything made by Black Orc Games in 28mm scale. Also, I that if I do not paint them (and the 2 Pretas) this month, I'll eat a ban....Huh? Where am I? Why is there blood on my hands? Tadhg, what have you made me do?
