In celebration of my country's independence, I was invited to go to a cabin, drink beer and shoot off surplus professional-grade fireworks! So, that is where I've been. It was a last-minute thing, and I do apologize for the delays. I will have to withhold judgment until this evening as I am on a time crunch, but I assure you it will get done. ALSO! if you or a loved one are experiencing issues with speed painting rules (specifically me seeing them in time), it's impossible for me to see all of them in time, so go for it! Do not, I repeat, do not wait for me to approve an oath if you intend to speed paint it. It's simply not gonna work for either party involved, but if you're a Good Boy and/or Good Girl, you will get your points because I trust you to know what you are doing!

 Judgement!3rd Place, 1 Point: Red Shoe  Everything was great once again. The gold metallics on this dude popped out at me, super sharp, yet it still works perfectly with the overall tone of the piece. Love the paint jobs on those Helldrakes, nice color variation on the carapace. 2nd Place, 2 Points: Slimnoid  These are the most perfect skulls ever. The lenses are great, the rust is great, everything is bold as poo poo. The purple on the Stompa came out great. Love the rust effect on the Stompa, just like the bases on the Servitors. 1st Place, 3 Points: OneTrueBru  You put stubble on your marine for Christ's sake. His face and the top of his head. Super effective, all the highlights look ultra crisp. Love the striping on the chainsword. Base is simple but well executed. I like the Ork as well, nice weathering on the blue bits. Detektuv's Jurnal Bonus, Battle Damage, 1 Point: Monoliths  Awesome job, socket looks torn and shredded to hell, not just casually cut off.

 OATH COMPLETE!   Claiming a themed group for them, and their conversions are the weapon swap on the plasma gunner, arm swap on the chainsword guy, and the entire new top half on the third guy. I finished these awful fast, will probably oath something else once the humidity drops down to a reasonable level.

enri posted:* these are for my journal entry, hopefully they count.. I'm using GW plastic rippers with the tops of their heads chopped off and I'm using the heads from some Dark Realms Miniatures 'medium beasties' minis to give them that classic 'oh god look at the size of its head' look. That sounds like it would count. Just be sure to take before and after photos of your conversion for me. Ideally with a little more light than in your Oath pic! Indolent Bastard posted:(This qualify for the monthly theme correct?) Yes! IrvingWashington posted:
You can post your before & after at any time: in your oath, oath complete, or a separate post. However, doing it earlier ensures you don't wind up in a situation where we don't agree it's a qualifying conversion, but you've already completed your oath and maybe it's July 31st and there's no time to do something else! So earlier is better, unless you're sure you've done what's needed to qualify. Indolent Bastard posted:*cough* This qualify for the monthly theme correct? *cough* Yes! OK folks now I need to confess, I hosed something up! First, due to a typo, I failed to include Signal in the June prize drawing for Corvus Belli/Infinity models. Because I spelled it "Covus Belli" in the spreadsheet cell. I only noticed because I was reviewing the list of model makers on the Interesting Statistics spreadsheet and saw the typo there. Looking into it further, I also programmed the Corvus Belli index column to assign a number to anyone who oathed a Corvus Belli model, even if they didn't complete this oath. As a result, Korwen, Pierzak, Derlix, and Johnasaurus were included in the June drawing, even though they failed their oaths! So basically, I rolled the wrong sized die. On the other hand, the person who won, nathonicus, did complete his Corvus Belli model, and I'm loathe to take back the prize now and re-roll, that seems like a dick move. So, please accept my apology for screwing that up, and if you have an opinion as to how I should make it right, feel free to post, or PM/email me, or Krushgroove, at your preference. For July and onward, I will get this fixed in the sheet. MEANWHILE... for those of you who paint Corvus Belli stuff, but haven't oathed a Corvus Belli model, this is a good month to put one into the mix! At the end of the month, I'll be doing two drawings: one for the monthly blister pack, and one for the quarterly starter box. The pool of entrants has been pretty small (9 in May, e. Oh yeah, by the way, your points leaders at the moment are Red Shoe and Slimnoid, at 30 points each! That's including Bachtere's judging points, and also points awarded so far for July, so it might change once we get the other judges in and you folks finish doing some more oaths. There's also a five-way tie for eighth place right now, at 25 points! Leperflesh fucked around with this message at 20:59 on Jul 6, 2013 |

Gonna double-post as an aside: part of the reason for my fuckup is the weird way that Google has implemented many of their spreadsheet functions. Here's the current formula I'm using in the Corvus Belli Index column: =IF(ISERROR(SEARCH("Corvus Belli", L<this row>)), 0, MAX(Y3:Y<this row -1>)+1) So, for example, on row 82 (nathonicus), the formula looks like: =IF(ISERROR(SEARCH("Corvus Belli", L82)), 0, MAX(Y3:Y81)+1) Why the gently caress would I do it this way? Well, because the SEARCH function, if it fails to find a result, returns ERROR instead of what you'd expect, which would be FALSE. Seriously. SEARCH returns either TRUE or loving ERROR? You can't write boolean logic based on that! If I did something like =IF(ISTRUE(SEARCH("Corvus Belli", L82)), MAX(Y3:Y81)+1, 0) Then I'd get a numerical value when the string is in L82, but the entire IF function would return an error when it's false: and you cant perform column-wide numerical operations on a column full of ERRORs. MAX returns an error because it is expecting only numerical values. It's all hosed. Gooooogle  Soooo, now that I need to do a compound test (is "corvus belli" somewhere in the L cell, AND is there a value in the P column which indicates the oath was completed, THEN do the max + 1 thing), I'll have to figure out a different way around this bullshit. Any ideas would be great.

Woo, 3 points from Bachtere himself and I won a prize? Thanks everyone.  But on that note, I won't have a lot of time to paint for the next wee while so I'd be quite happy to transfer my Grab Bag win to Signal (assuming he wants it). Saves a prize potentially languishing on my shelves for ages.

Yeah I think what happened was, I decided to wait to see your photos or something and didn't put in the points, and then forgot I'd done that? Here's how doing past jurnals works: for any given month, you can do the current jurnal for 2 points. OR, you can do any past jurnal for 1 point. So this month, you can do the current jurnal where you cut off a bit and put on a different bit or move it to a different pose, and earn 2 points; or, you could do either of the May or June jurnals, and get 1 point instead.

Leperflesh posted:That's very generous of you. Looks like I screwed over Pierzak too. While we're all getting down on you, can you confirm if multiple entries in the themed group = multiple chances to win, or is it just 1 entry in the draw whether you paint a group in both months or just one? I thought the rules were that one submission = one entry, so both months would be two chances to win. If this isn't the case then that's great because I can take a break from painting armies next month, perhaps, but if it is, then it looks like you didn't do that. I don't want the roll changed because that's poor form, and Tadhg had 2 entries with approximately 6 million elves, but it'd be nice to know for the future. To round things out, thank you so much for dealing with rolls, google docs, and us. I shudder when I think about what's involved.

krushgroove posted:Correct - there was a grace period for people who'd already done conversions but didn't know what the Jurnal theme is for this month, but starting today we have to have a BEFORE and AFTER picture. Even if it just means you've Blu Tac'd the standard arm in place and then you've swapped it with an alternate arm. The intent is that you're using something that makes the original model/kit/set look obviously different. The example above of changing a knife-holding hand to a pistol-holding hand is perfect. Well, poo poo. I have a crisis suit with a reposed arm and knee/leg that would have been perfect for this all glued up and ready for priming.

It is indeed multiple entries, and you have credit for both. If you look at the index column, you'll see that if you have a link in both column B and column C, it adds two to the total: so, your index was 26 and 27. By the same token, Tadhg was both 2 and 3. You're all good!

Time to do my judge-ly duty. GUILTY!!! YOU'RE ALL GUILTY!!! Wait... I'll get it right one of these months! Points! Yeah! That's the ticket! 1 Point: Chance II  Orkifying is easy and fun. De-orkifying isn't something I can say I've seen very much but you cleaned that junker up quite nicely. 2 Points: Indolent Bastard  The picture doesn't really do justice as to why you got points this month. This on the other hand... 3 Points: Germ  It doesn't really need saying, but these are some really great wreckage markers. All the bits lying around give a good impression of it getting blown to pieces, and being able to make casts to rifle that many out at once was just icing on the cake. Bonus Theme Point: IrvingWashington  I really like the extent you went to on showing how the battle damage was done. Scratched the hell out of it, busted a leg prone, but breaking the shield was kind of the tipping point. It's a part of the model away from the damaged leg, but it makes sense it would have to be taken out first. Good thinking and good damage. thiswayliesmadness fucked around with this message at 03:18 on Jul 7, 2013 |

Guess what time it is? DODGEBALL TIME. I'll wait until you have a round. No, I insist, have fun! ... Okay, now that you are back, get ready to  BE JUDGED!1 Point: Namenlos!  You pretty much took everything I liked about your style and poured it into a single mini. Aside from your wonderfully-done NMM, your color selection and application is bright, vibrant, and stunning (attention to detail notwithstanding). 2 Points: OneTruBru!   Ahem. The only reason you didn't get all 3 points is simply a matter of volume. You might be the shark in the water this year, Goon sir; everyone should be looking to take you down before too long. 3 Points: Red Shoe!  I could go on about everything great about these models, but what always gets me about your work is the high-quality over large quantity. I'm not sure how you do it, but it is always done well, with rich tones that blend together across everything you do, giving it a cohesive look that is deceptively hard to achieve. Bonus Coolguy Point: Booley!  Models like these are my favorite part of being the artistry judge: seeing something unexpected, original and nothing that I would have thought to do at all. It works very well, in spite of (or perhaps because of) the dramatic clash of bright, flashy colors on an otherwise standard olive drab. IN OTHER NEWS...

I Khadhul, oath to paint during the month of July, one Space Marine Commander from Games Workshop/Forgeworld. Here's the cut and swap as it is now:  I cut up the right arm so I could repose it as holding a sword, it's not pinned/greenstuffed into place yet so the final product might look a bit different. The left arm is currently a cut up black templars power sword shoulder to get a good angle on the shoulderpad and a brass pin that'll form a base for a bionic arm holding a combimelta to his side. The head is, if I recall correctly from the cadian command squad box. FoulWeatherFriend fucked around with this message at 20:17 on Jul 7, 2013 |

Apologies, the photo's a bit of a blowout - my lightbox is just a milk bottle, so isn't big enough to fit all of this at once, and my camera's on the fritz so I had to use my wife's phone.  I haven't oathed anything for about 2 years, so not really sure if that counts for Awww, it's a baby, but shy bairns get nowt, so it's worth asking. So yeah, anyway. Paint for the paint god! If i were to cut and swap a new head in on one of the horrifically dull Storm Bolter/PF termis, would it still be kosher, even though the photo may be of a model slightly further along in terms of painting?

Thank you to all the judges! Sushi, my secret to painting a large volume is that I have a good idea of where I can take shortcuts with minimal effect on overall quality. For example, on the Bane Thralls you posted I didn't do any blending on their wraith-like lower bodies. It was just 3 quick layers of overly bright turquoise, then I washed them with Nuln Oil which toned down and blended the colors in a single step. I usually take my time on character models but any cut corner on a large unit saves a lot of time.

Sure, you can do your conversion at any stage of painting. All I need is the before/after photo that clearly shows that you've done the conversion work.

Saves a prize potentially languishing on my shelves for ages. Wow dude, that's super generous of you. I don't want to steal your well-earned prize though.  I, Signal, oath to paint two Marseille Class Cruisers, eight Lyon Class Frigates, one Voltaire Heavy Interceptor and sixteen Tiny Fliers from Dystopian Wars/Spartan Games (in 1:1200 scale, I think) and two Crusader Brethren from Infinity/Corvus Belli in 28mm

Wow, thanks a million! While I've done a fair bit of casting before, this was the first time I tried anything like the wreckage marker. It actually got me pretty jazzed about doing similar stuff. I've spent the last month or so working on wreck markers for other 40k vehicles. So far, I've made masters for a variety of "Galactic" Marine vehicles (Transport/tank chassis, land speeder, walker, drop pod, and heavy transport), Evil space elves (transport skiff and heavy weapon skimmer), Human Soldiers (Walker and Battle tank/transport chassis). I've got a fair amount of work done for lots of the others, as well. I'd post photos, but my wife's out of town with the camera. Anyhow, I'll hopefully be able to have some available for others at some point in the near future - I was aiming toward starting a Kickstarter by mid-August. I have an oath selected, but I have to wait till my wife gets back to photograph it. Heck, I can't even start on the conversion work until after she's back, in order to get the proper "before" shot.
