I'm going to put him on ignore so I don't see his soul crushingly good paint jobs  TheBlobThing posted:I'm painting up my last model right now (and the base on my second-to-last model), and I was just wondering: can I claim last month's jurnal this month in addition to this month's jurnal? Not a judge but going to butt in here: You can do it just for shits and giggles, but you'll only get 2 points for this months Jurnal. Not 2 points for this months jurnal AND 1 point for last months jurnal. If you haven't already claimed the 'double the something or other' one off bonus point, then two jurnal entries would be valid for that for 1 point in addition to your 2 points from this months jurnal. Sorry judges if I'm stepping on your toes!  I so want the final months jurnal entry to be 'incorporate all 11 previous jurnal entries on one model' - that'll be a clusterfuck of epic proportions.

Bucnasti posted:I love the end of the month when all the complete oaths roll in at once. I've said this in the past as well, it's just the best time of the month! The start of the month is interesting to see everyone's projects but the last week is when it all comes together  TheBlobThing posted:Thanks for the input. I'll just go for the double bonus, since I kind of ended up with both jurnals on my last model. Yeah I'm pretty sure enri nailed it with his explanation. I know the rules and everything can be confusing - I've been pondering if the OP should be updated or whatever for the 6-month anniversary but I'm afraid I would just make things worse! I think I might just try 'rebooting' things on the various miniature gaming threads to get more people involved.

 OATH COMPLETELinked for a booby, I guess. Apologies for the lovely phone pic, I'm moving house right now and haven't had much time or sanity lately. http://i.imgur.com/5Q6Fp4X.jpg Of course there is a good amount of pink involved, plus I'd like to claim Fly Your Flag on the icon bearer. It's kinda riffing on a design I tried to paint when I was 12 or something and ended up looking pretty blobby. This is a new attempt, trying to portray captured souls swirling across the surface of the banner.

Germ posted:Also, I don't know if 3 Ogre-sized 28mm models is big enough for a themed group. That's a good question. Technically, they're 28mm models which means you need at least 5. But, they're mounted, and it'd make sense to me to count the mounts as additional 28mm models. This would also mean stuff like Matgash's three mounted space marines on bikes this month would count. Although those models are a bit smaller, I think. I'll leave it up to Ineptmule to make the interpretation, though, and if he wants to keep things simple, it'd be OK to just go by the scale and that's it. Mmtheblue posted:And since I did the Jurnal and Backstory, I think that qualifies for Double the Fun? Yup! OneTrueBru posted:I've not been painting much of late, but I've decided to start de-rusting, and managed to complete my alternate universe oath: Congrats! You're just the third person to finish an Alternate Universe oath. Just a reminder to everyone that there's a special prize from Zhent that you can win if you do an Alternate Universe oath. Fix posted:Pink-hair there should suffice for my jurnal point. Also, it is a themed group. Yup. But, no username in photo? There's still time to 'shop one in, if you like. Red Shoe posted:
Hi Red Shoe. I have a special request for you. This is not a requirement, there's no rule about it, it's just an informal request. Since you tend to oath a fuckton of different models, it'd be awesome for me if you could use the specific labels you used in your original oath, to label your various photos? For example, this is what I have this month for your oath: "a Remorhaz, 5 Infernals, 10 Boomhowlers, and Sorscha; added 1 Stormblade Captain, Strangewaves, Jonas Murdoch, a Hunter, and a Squire; added 12 Iron Fang Pikemen, an Extreme Destroyer, and an Elf Warrior" But looking at your Oath Complete, I'm not sure which is the five infernals and which is the other group of five things that might be those dudes Jonas and the Hunter etc., and is that the elf warrior up front, or maybe it's Sorscha? I did a total model count and I'm sure you actually did your whole oath, but it'll be much faster for me to confirm things if you use consistent labels. This applies to everyone, really, but for you in particular because you tend to post a dozen photos with different models in them, and you also do models from games I'm not familiar with. Illudere posted:Oath Complete! I'm assuming no Theme this month, right? Ok one more thing. HEY EVERYONEThe deadline is tomorrow! And time zones and daylight savings time and poo poo is weird. In the UK, they've already fallen back for the fall, but we don't fall back here in the US till this weekend. Some countries are on the UK scheme and some the US scheme. Don't miss the deadline by an hour! That would suck. Here are the deadlines in the OP: quote:Deadline Times

Wait wait wait... just to clarify, the UK time you've quoted is BST (British Summer Time), we're now in GMT with the hours change so the 1am quoted should be midnight. But in hindsight I get the impression you weren't referring to the quoted time when you said the one time that matters is the UK time and you did mean that when it hits midnight here, we're done for October.

Deanut Pancer posted:Yet again its great to see another month's worth of work coming in from everyone. Good stuff! Yeah, it's midnight GMT, which means some of the times quoted in the OP, which I quoted earlier, are wrong... because now instead of 1 AM in the UK, it's midnight in the UK. It may be an hour different in any country which has already stopped daylight savings time. But (for example) the deadline is still 5PM Pacific Daylight Time in California. If you use the slider on that time zone website to put it at 5pm PDT, like this, you'll see it's midnight in the UK. So, as I said, Leperflesh posted:The single point-of-truth is the time in the UK. enri posted:Wait wait wait... just to clarify, the UK time you've quoted is BST (British Summer Time), we're now in GMT with the hours change so the 1am quoted should be midnight. quote:But in hindsight I get the impression you weren't referring to the quoted time when you said the one time that matters is the UK time and you did mean that when it hits midnight here, we're done for October.

Themed Group  Last month's Freehand Jernul on the unit leader's banner  Vorkesh isn't a bonus, but he needed some paint anyway  The Charontid is painted to emulate the Box art!    The Malignos is this month's Pink Jernul   My Mammoth took advantage of this month's Amnesty, and I finally finished him off after plugging away for several months off and on:      And here he is In Battle! Rasheth demands more snacks! Forward, to their pantry!   Charging a foul trollkin warder, can the Mammoth prove himself in combat?  Yes.  I had a blast putting paint to models this month!

Oath Complete! And for my jurnal entry, I gave the leader of the archers a pink feather and a pink-rear end cape. I also noticed upon taking this picture a massive blue spot on his arm, so I'll have to go over that and fix it.  More shots:     I think next month I'm gonna try to oath just 1 or 2 models and really try my hardest to spend a lot of time on them and try to put out a really impressive piece like so many of you guys do every month.

There's a lot of people I'd like to say "Beautiful Stuff" on this month, but drat there are so many names. Good job everyone!

OATH COMPLETE!   From left to right, that's: (6) Rats, (1) Spider, (6) Mouse Heroes, (8) Cockroaches, (1) Malifaux Mobile Toolkit, and (1) Centipede. For my Detektuv's Jurnal entry, I present Pinky the Rat:  And for my Get Based Out! entry, the base on the Malifaux Mobile Toolkit, which I've bashed together from some discarded springs and pieces of dead office equipment (ink stamper and correction-tape dispenser):  Link to the full album: http://imgur.com/a/31vWh/all (Now featuring more, huger, table-breaking pics!) Quick question for the judges: The box art for Mice & Mystics doesn't show any of the miniatures, but it does have pretty detailed portraits of the heroes on their character cards, which I used as the basis for their designs:  Could this count as the one-time Box Art bonus, or does it need to match the actual cover art for the game? (Just curious; if this doesn't work I've got others I could use in a future oath.) Dr. Gargunza fucked around with this message at 17:57 on Oct 31, 2013 |

I don't really have a FLGS, I buy from Combat Company over the net, and I'd already made my order for the month when the Jurnal was announced and didn't feel like spending on another package for one paint, otherwise I might have. Only other pink I have is MC Light Flesh, which isn't all that pink!
