I, Dr. Gargunza, for the last time in this season, oath to paint: (1) Dark Vengeance Dark Angels Space Marine Sergeant (w/ minor chainsword replacement); (1) WarGods of Aegyptus Heru Captain (w/ a hopefully obvious conversion)! Both 28mm; the Dark Angel is from GW, and the hawk-dude is from Crocodile Games. For part 1 of the Jurnal, I've converted the hawk-man's back with a pair of wings from, um, probably Reaper (it's been a while since I did this conversion; please let me know if that doesn't count, I just ran out of free time this month). The original looks like this:  The Dark Angel will be part 2 of the Jurnal; I plan on doing some OSL from his plasma pistol. (I am doing a quasi-weapon-swap; his original chainsword ended up as part of my June 2013 oath.)  I'd be sad about the end of the season...if it weren't starting up again in a few days. Looking forward to seeing everyone's works! Oh, before I forget, is there a deadline for posting the One-Time Bonuses, or just anytime before the end of the month?

Krushgroove, does the oath deadline include showing pics for diorama and scenic base entries? Totally forgot the deadline, I have a half built diorama that isn't even close to finished for a pre-paint photo. If I need to show photos by the deadline then I'll blitz it tonight  Kicking myself for constantly saying "I'll start that diorama soon, plenty of time to go yet.. the end of the season is months away!" throughout the past year now  (though to be fair, I started putting it together around a month and a half ago, just been slack since v  v)

krushgroove posted:or this: Hmm, I need to have a count up, because I've pretty much done a themed group a month. Also, Scale counts here - I've done 10mm Dropzone commander, so technically I've done 114 soldiers alone - and that's only 28 bases. I just got my "lose a stone in weight" prize off my wife - she wanted a 1kg Easter egg, I got a 6mm British Napoleonic Army - That's about 380 figures. So, When this months lot are done, I'll do a photoshoot of all the models I've done this year, in the display Cabinet the wife was nice enough to buy me.

You don't have to explicitly oath the one-point one-time bonuses, and Get Based Out; just point them out in your Oath Complete post.

I'll keep watching this space then. If the hawkfellow doesn't count as a conversion due to prior work, I'll just paint it as an extra model & pile more Jurnals on the sergeant. Thanks for checking!

Oath addition! Cutting it fine to squeeze this in, just spent a bit of time tonight to get it moving along to a point I could photograph it.. this is my diorama entry It looks devoid of details at the moment, but they'll come with the painting (posters, newspaper scraps on the floor, etc. is what I have planned to add a bit of detail) Model isn't in its final position because I'll paint it up separately to the base. Here ya go.. hope this is ok  drat, the amount of painting this month is high for me.. best get started I guess

Alrighty, added the stock photo of said dude. Also, I forgot to glue on his shoulder pad before taking that oath pic. I've just based these guys in green; would you like me to take another pic but with the shoulder pad before I go any further?

I'll bite the bullet and follow Under 15's fantastic entry. Oath Complete!    This is a themed group: they say adventurers never retire, but who else is going to have the stocks to sell to all the newbies? Ma Magus and Pa Warrior are getting up there in years, so Ma has the mud golem do all the heavy lifting, and Pa pampers the family pet with smithing scraps. (Pa also has to reconstruct the forge area a few times a year when Rusty gets bored and/or hungry, but that's pet ownership for you.)  Detektuv's Jurnal I also wanted to challenge myself to see how many past jurnals I could complete, so I aimed for 2 per figure. I worked 10 of them in outright, and 11 if you squint a bit. May: Suiting Up - The top 3 pictures show my progress throughout the month. I piled on a lot of the brown and metallics at first, then doubled back to fill in all the other colors. June: Battle Damage - I gave the blacksmith a bunch of scars and a missing eye. July: Cut and Swap - I'm cheating here. I saved the bits I clipped off of my mutants from July and March. One knife tip went to the Grandma, and the rest became rust monster fodder... August: Weathering - ...and it wouldn't be 'rust monster fodder' without a frankly excessive amount of oxidation. I love painting rust. September: Freehand - The blacksmith got some decoration (and soot) on his apron. October: Breast Cancer Awareness - I hear tiny plastic crotches are popular around here, so have a pink golem butt. November: Movember - The golem also grew a grass mop top. No one's brave enough to tell him it's kind of hideous. December: Non-Metallic Metal - The grandma's dagger was painted up in NMM... January: Object-Source Lighting - ...and the green jewel on top is glowing gently. February: Break the 4th Wall - Who's that on the box? Hey, it's Arhu and Morte! March: Conversions - Arhu's one of the 7 cats from the 'Crazy Cat Lady' figure, and Morte was the fun surprise from inside my empty Flow Improver bottle. The grandma's dagger is also a metal & greenstuff addition. Oathing season was fun this year! While I've been generally okay on the 'quantity' front, competing helped me focus more on the quality front this year. It also helped me challenge myself to complete 2-3 bigger projects I had been putting off for awhile. Thanks, painting thread!

I've been reading some back issues of White Dwarf from 1996 lately, and these minis really capture the spirit of those old magazines--that sense of light-hearted fun that GW used to have.

OATH COMPLETE! Man, what a fun, productive, and inspiring year. Thanks for everyone who made this happen, and thanks to all the goons who provided my monthly eye candy!  Here are some individual shots of the ponds, with a couple of figures added to show scale. Should be pretty obvious that it's terrain. I need to blow some of the static grass off the water, but you get the picture. I tried a couple different effects with the water - still not completely satisfied, though.   For my Aegis Line, I'm claiming the Detektiv's Journals of weathering (the rust) and conversion (as the model is scratchbuilt, with the gun stolen from a Defiler). For a before picture, here's some of the carved plaster masters with greenstuffed boils and maggots, alongside the molds I used to cast them.  And, more pictures than are probably necessary:     And, finally, some plaguebearers in their natural habitat (enjoying a 2+ cover save and shooting down fliers):
