Claiming for Speed Painting!







I was painting two of the same model in my oath, so I put them both in the start photo to prove I wasn't playing switcharoos, but only painted one for the speed paint challenge.

This after I speed painted my referee, got distracted, and forgot to take a timestamped complete photo until 5 minutes after my deadline :downs:

Also, I really like how the camera makes each and every part of it look terrible :(

Conversion stuff

Totally - I'm not asking for any leeway here at all, I'm well aware of what I should have done :)

I just found the picture from an old GW catalog page and figured I'd share because stuff like that makes me nostalgic

Detective's Jurnal is the fabulous beard on the kung-fu Orc. These guys are a Themed Group.

Whoever painted two of those catapults last month is a masochist; what a horrible model to paint. Too many goddamn rivets.

Thanks! I tried to convert the model into a Fist of the North Star-like jump-kick but GW orcs are so wildly out of proportion that it was impossible. Not to say that Kenshiro is particularly in proportion, either...

Since it's only the 19th, I Gotta do this bonus style and add on this GW Snotling Pump Wagon. It's been sitting on my desk for months, primed and ready to go.



If I remember right I'm supposed to edit this into my original oath post too.

I'm missing the point for a valid oath in the spreadsheet.

Sometimes it takes me more than 8 hours to put in data after Krushgroove approves an oath! But you're all taken care of now. :)


IrvingWashington posted:

I forgot to do a conversion before picture because I got all excited when the other bits finally arrived, but given that I had no idea what the actual model was called (I got it as part of an ebay lot) here's what he looked like back in 1994:



This is fine. I can see what the original model looked like, and your "after" photo shows me your conversion work.


Direwolf posted:

Hey, so I ended up doing some conversion work with my Hormagaunts, does my original oath picture contain enough of them assembled normally to count as a "before" picture? Same with my Stegadon.

In your Oath Complete post, put in a stock photo (ideally unpainted) of the central or main model(s) you used, plus the first of the above photos, and I'll credit you for your conversion. The stock photo can come from GW or whatever, that'll be fine.

Keep in mind I just took away your Oath Complete points; you now must complete this and post a new Oath Complete post when you're done. There's no need to edit the above into your original oath post, guys like Red Shoe have me pasting three or four URLs into my Oath cells every month.

Accepted, but Brock can you please post the high-res of that picture (in imgur link form or something) or re-take the picture at some point (with whatever paint you have on it) so the date is actually readable? It's super fuzzy and I can't even tell what month that is! :)

Two of my three favorite models (I love the pose on Brother Knife-fight and the special weapons guy has some of the less frustrating highlighting I've done so far):


And now, I'd like to tell the story of the third tactical squad In Battle vs the Geno-marines:

:agesilaus:: Relax brother, soon we shall see battle!

Two quick conformations on Get Based Out:

- We can start building the base anytime, it just can't be painted before we oath it.

- It's OK to have models on the completed base.

In my experience yes :) I think I'm the only person who has specifically painted just a base, everyone else has just selected one of their bases of an oathed model. But yea my base was built first, oathed later.
