 Judgement!3rd Place, 1 Point: Red Shoe  It was great reading the walk through in the painting/modeling thread on how you painted up this guy. The work that went into it really shows up in the end result, really the result of all of your pieces this oathing season. 2nd Place, 2 Points: IrvingWashington  A clean, super effective piece. Colors work great together, the purples and black. Highlighting is consistent throughout, and it turned out very striking, it looks great. Base looks well weathered, fits great with the model. 1st Place, 3 Points: Arlaharen  Everything about these three is great. The color variation in sand on the bases, the nicks/weathering on the spear dude's armor/shield, the weathering on the cross, the highlighting and freehand on the scroll. Absolutely every detail and technique you used came together perfectly. Trying out that color scheme? Run with that poo poo. Detektuv's Jurnal Bonus, Freehand, 1 Point: Namenlos  The banner kicks rear end, great details, looks like the reference pic. The shading and depth on the shoulder pad is also outstanding.

krushgroove posted:Well I wasn't sure if you were wanting to play as well :-) Raphus will be there from 3-ish and I've booked two tables somehow (one of the 'feature' tables and one normal one), so anyone who wants to play can show up. Cool well I probably won't be able to play as I only get 30 mins for lunch. Let me know on the day when you get here and what you plan on eating and I'll come over and join you lot. If you're still around after 5.30 I'll come hang out and maybe get a drink? I'll try and make sure I have some models in the office just in case  Also, thanks Bachtere!

Actually I'd love to play Epic, but I don't have enough stuff to make an army and none of the guys going with me will have anything but 40K stuff. Thanks for doing another pic, I know it's a pain and any painting you've done on them is fine. Oxford Comma posted:Do all my oathed minis need to be in the same timestamped shot when they are done?

JerryLee posted:I have a question about conversions: Does the pre-conversion picture also need to be timestamped and dated within the month that the oath is for? Or is it just a reference for the model that you started with? I don't know if I got a response to this. Basically I'm asking if you need to take the official oath picture before starting any of the conversion work, or if you just need an unofficial reference for what the model started life as.

Joe_Richter posted:better pic of my oath: Muy bueno! Accepted! It's OK you couldn't make it, but if you had I could have let you use half of my army and we could have had a game on the sweet tables they have there. Raphuc couldn't make it in the end but I think we'll have to organize a proper meet-up with a bit more notice for everyone. The trip to Warhammer World was fun, even if we didn't get any time to play on the awesome tables that are set up (the goon that was trying to make it from another city couldn't and I wasn't really up to trying to ask around for pick-up games) but we spent a lot of time wandering around, buying a few things here and there and enjoying ourselves. Met up with Namenlos and got far too many White Dwarfs, so plenty of reading material (and extra prizes for the Grab Bag!) ...I...took a few pictures: https://plus.google.com/photos/101792256154658567736/albums/5936205578977392769?authkey=CImGwYvg5JSRZg If you've been on blogs and whatnot it's probably everything you've seen before but seeing everything in person was really cool. Some samples photos:  The Belly Buster with a pint of Bugman's XXXXXX  Our reserved table...sadly we didn't have time to play on it! next time...  An Apocalypse game in full flow: Dark Eldar, Necrons, IG and lots more  Anyone need Forge World bits? Order there and they'll deliver to your house for free - you cannot fault them for their service!  The amazing Macragge display  The very first Citadel offerings  Sisters!  One of several dioramas on display, and one of a few by Mike McVey  Probably the most amazing single model I saw Anyway, I took lots more pictures, pretty much one of every shelf they had (except for the missing armies that had been removed, like Grey Knights), plus pics of most of the Fantasy and LotR stuff too. Finally, one for SRM:

Sorry for the delay. I just started a new job sooner than I thought and have had to concentrate on that. But now: 1 Point: Grey Hunter  I think there's a law somewhere that says you have to be rewarded for doing something that fun. 2 Points: Red Shoe  Again, you blasted out a ton of models. But that great water effect work (and thanks for the nice tutorial you posted elsewhere!), weathering and other creative bits really bring it together. 3 Points: Namenlos  When someone says, "I think I'm going to freehand a banner" they usually don't create something as awesome as that. Bravo! Bonus Point: Brock Samsonite  I really dig that freehand work and it's tied in with the soul stones in a really visual way.

Sedition Wars Samaritan (The Jurnal is her hair, in case you can't see pinks), and I tried some OSL for the first time ever.   Blood Bowl Orcs   Krushgroove I put some dirt on the floor, sorry if that's a cop-out I am guessing the Orcs count for a Themed Group - nice to have time to work on more than one mini this month!

Haha, don't worry once I paint stuff it gets boxed away and never played with (last game was not long after 5th came out, and before that only played space hulk). Probably explains the short lived enthusiastic painting sprees. A painted kill team tournament might be a fun thing to do though.

I don't have much of an idea how to organize one though, might have to find a volunteer. I think pick a date first so we can publicize it. I hope to make it an Oath Thread thing (at least for the GW players) so I want to invite Fantasy players also, though (and any Hobbit players if there are any), does anyone know of an equivalent of Kill Team for Fantasy?

The news of my death has been greatly exaggerated. Well, I mean I did die, but I'm a lich now so it's all good. Judgment!1 Point: Monoliths!  A lot of times, I am a sucker for neat, orderly paintjobs. Now, I'm not saying that yours is sloppy or terrible; I'm saying that each part of the model bright, eye-catching and riotous in a sense. However, this stark contrasting is exactly what makes it great, and makes you great as a painter. Your style is always instantly recognizable, and I've had the pleasure of watching it develop over several years. This is a departure from your typical style, but it definitely works. 2 Points: Gareth Gobulcoque!  So, yeah. This is about as clean a paint job that I have ever seen; so in contrast for the explosive entry that was seen above, I revert to my tendencies for the spartan. Splendid in silver, with just the right touches here and there to really set it off, this model is absolutely fantastic. However, it does not earn 3 points because... Well, it might be too neat and clean. It really pushes the bounds of "very well done and clean model" and "very well done and boring model." Granted, you are on the better part of that, and I think the model's size may have something to do with the issue, but drat if you don't pull it off with style. 3 Points: Namenlos!  Speaking of style, we have one of our most stylish artists right here, and once again she puts out a fantastic display. The freehand on this guy is at insane levels, truly inspiring; the model itself conveys a sense of weight, a dark, grizzled sense that fits seamlessly with the lore of the model itself. I love pretty much everything about this model, so you easily get the points. Special Cool Kid's Point: Rikthor!  Simple, elegant, classic and bold; everything I love about art in general, put onto a shield. You're doing well, and with more models under your belt, you'll be up on the leaderboards before too long, I can tell.Side Note for Krushgroove I never received an e-mail stating the oaths were ready! Nothing big, just thought you should know in case things got jumbled up or some such.

MasterSlowPoke posted:I finished assembling the Destroyer Lord before I realized I needed to take photos of the components for the conversion contest, can I show what models the parts came from or will I have to convert another model? The "before" photo does not need to be of your actual model. I just need something that shows me what the original model (or component pieces) looked like, so I can compare it to the "after" photo and go "yup, that's actually a conversion, and not just some green stuff smeared on a part or whatever".

Or is it just a reference for the model that you started with? JerryLee posted:I don't know if I got a response to this. We need a reference for what the model started as. It's easiest if you just take a photo before doing the conversion work, but I will accept any photo reference that clearly shows what the original model/pieces looked like.

There's still ten days left in the month, though, so if you slap some material and paint onto that model's base, you can re-post your Oath Complete and get that point!
