These are both Games Workshop models.



As you can see, Straken has left his combat blade behind for a far superior chainsword! I'm painting him to be used (eventually) as a Necromunda gang leader kitted as shown with a Shotgun and Chainsword, so getting to chop him a bit worked out. :)

Edit: That base is going to be completely redone, please ignore that awful acrylic blue and beige on there. :/

I, Fix, oath the following:
1 Aegis Defense Line with Icarus Lascannon (Games Workshop)
2 Servitors (Games Workshop)
1 Servitor (Games Workshop kitbash)
1 Crusader (Games Workshop)
3 Servo Skull markers (Games Workshop)
1 Jokaero (Games Workshop)
1 Orangutango (Reaper)
1 Privateer Godwin (Hasslefree)
1 Skinny little dude I honestly have no idea where he came from. I thought he was from Dark Age, but now I can't find it.




One question: Do the Servo Skull markers count towards the "I rolled a 6..." point? As they are not regular game models but markers that operate by their own rules. Because if they do, I'd like to claim that.

Leperflesh: Scale as per previous Oath is 0.03 for your chart







July Detektuv Journal: Cut and Swap
I cut the prow off the two cruisers to replace them with alternate Resin ones (also made by Mangozac for me) to tie in to the rest of the ships (the holes in one of the ships are for magnetising so I can change the ship class at will, am seeing if it's better to do before or after painting hence one has it and the other doesn't.

This will be a Themed Group.

I'm in the spreadsheet, though I notice my intended 'after' picture is listed as 'before', my 'before' isn't listed, and I don't have an 'after' picture yet. Is this going to be okay? To make it clearer, I've already cut off the bone club, and cut and bent the arm upward. The tankard/bucket sitting on the ground in my 'after' shot will get glued on, painted, during my last step. I'd take another picture, but he's already half painted!

Ah, I was thrown by the greenstuff in your before pic, it looked like it was already altered. I've fixed you up now.

They totally count as markers; I think someone else has already done servo skulls as markers for "I rolled a 6..." as well.

Sole.Sushi, where are you

Generally yes, it's good to wait if you have any concern your oath post might not be right. However, Sole.Sushi hasn't approved any oaths yet for July, and it's already the 5th; I don't want anyone to lose precious painting time, especially on a long holiday weekend.

I strongly suspect that at this point if Sole.Sushi has an issue with anyone's original Oath photos, he will ask for you to take an additional (better-lit or something) photo, but any paint you have on the mini by now is excused and OK. He's not going to be expecting people to wait around this long. So please go ahead and start painting.

You can update your Oath Complete post at any time before the end of the month. If you want me to notice something, you need to post a new post so I know to go look. For example, if you update your oath complete post with a photo that has your username, and you want me to notice and give you a point for that, you'll need to make a new post about it.

The speed painting time is established by the world time server clock in your photo, so the post edit stamp doesn't really matter.

As always, dice results are linked from the spreadsheet. You can see all the dice I roll for this contest here. Krushgroove would have won a double-ended brush, but he's not eligible for a prize, so I had to reroll once in the games and gears category. You can see how that shows up in the results list.

Prize winners, please contact krushgroove to provide your shipping information, except for nathonicus who should contact me (email my username at gmail dot com, or send me a PM).

In addition I'll be trying to do something nice with some sharp tools and 1 Games Workshop Space Marine scout, which is whatever scale GW use for 40k



I'm okay to post before and after conversion pictures in my oath complete post, right? Because I don't know what I'm doing yet

Here's a before:


And an after:


I got him a better gun and a cooler pose (naturally someone with a visor as rad as that doesn't need to see xenos to destroy them). I also used the baking soda + superglue trick rather than green stuff this time.
