 June Oath Complete    Didn't manage to speedpaint it, since I'm lazy as hell, but that's another biker down. Sorry for the not-so-great photos. The ipad is passable, but I really should buy a proper camera.

PRIZE UPDATE! Airbrushes.com will be providing a Neo by iwata airbrush as a grand prize, plus Quarterly prizes of 2 Wilder Gunpowder Line weathering pigments! I'd like to ask if anyone wants airbrush equipment, weathering powders, compressors, etc., and you go to airbrushes.com (they're UK-based) PLEASE PLEASE use the 'SA Oath Thread' marketing code - this tells them who referred them to the site! And actually, if you order from ANY of our prize sponsors (especially KR Multicase, who haven't committed yet for this year), please mention the 'Something Awful Oath Thread Painting Competition' - it helps everyone out by telling the companies that we are pushing sales to them!

This is gonna sound a bit like shilling but eh whatever. I just wanted to mention that I currently use an Iwata Neo alongside my Badger Sotar 2020, and I find these two airbrushes compliment each other nicely. The Neo is great for priming, base coating, zenithal highlighting, terrain, and can do a fine enough line to do some shadowing/highlighting strokes on a 28mm-sized figure. It's a good entry-level airbrush that pretty much anyone who paints minis can get use out of, and it's well-made and easy to clean and adjust. I'd say it's a great prize for anyone thinking about getting into airbrushing with their modeling hobby.

I reviewed the CN (double action) and TRN2 (trigger double action) models of the Neo airbrushes for an RC car magazine, and I was pleasantly surprised by them. For the price they're actually pretty good, the only niggle I had with them was cleaning the threads of the interchangeable paint cups. The trigger one is really comfortable as well, but the threads keep me from using it regularly. It'd make a great basing and priming airbrush though. NTRabbit posted:I need to get a couple more card cases of foam from KR soon, I'll remember to do that when I buy Awesome, thanks! I'm actually kinda desperate for the KR thing to work out, so the more the merrier.

My main brush is a CN - the TRN2 looks really nice, though it's a lot pricier too. Is that just the trigger mechanism, or is it an overall better unit?

The main difference is the trigger - if your finger gets cramped up or you have hand problems (arthritis, etc.) then it could be just the thing.

Here's the May Slideshow and Photo Album! Slideshow (just click and enjoy) Photo Album (all the pictures! AT ONCE!!) I haven't sent these to the judges yet, so everyone please check to make sure your completed Oath picture(s) are in there! I had to add user names to a few folk's pictures, which means you guys LOST OUT on a point each - you may not be interested in collection points for the end of the year, but a single point can drop you out of the running for Grand Prizes...or it can mean the difference between first and second! I simple write my username on a piece of paper and have that in the picture, other people use cool fonts and things, so there's various ways to get that vital point! Also, I'm not that bothered about the size of photos this time around (Google photo albums show the largest available picture based on the browser window size) but I'd like to request that if you have multiple oaths you're finishing off, please quote your earlier Oath Complete post, it just makes it easier to get your photos if they're all in one post

Yeah, busy busy busy! We'll have our ducks in a row next month :P It behooves me (I don't get to use that phrase much, sorry) to say that UK/EU goons will be choosing from Grab Bag loot that I've got on hand, and US/North American goons will be choosing from loot that Manifest has on hand (and, for the moment, what Iris of Ether has available that she is donating). So lovestick, if you're in North America there's a lot of stuff you can pick from! If you're from the UK (sorry didn't finish this when I originally posted this) I'll be tossing in a few things of my own, plus whatever else I get from UK goons. This is also a call to goons in the UK and EU to send me your models that you think need more love than what you can give! Send me your stuff for the Grab Bag! PM or email me if you've got anything you want to donate
