I, Ugleb, oath for the month of January this bunch of things for Dropzone Commander (10mm) by Hawk Wargames:

3x Neptune Dropship
4x Juno IFV with turret options
8x bases of Immortals
2x Zeus Heavy Walkers
2x Enyo Heavy Walkers.




I'm going to a tournament in Febuary, so it's time to crank some stuff out! I had some trouble painting the walkerrs I did last month while fully assembled, so thought I'd try painting the bulk of it before assembling this time. Some stuff there is spray basecoated and you might notice a bit of greenstuff on one of the walker torso's where I had to fix a void in the casting.

We have albums going for both the US-based and the UK-based prize pots! So here's who you will contact for your choice of prize:

If you live in North America, you are choosing from Iris of Ether's prize pot.
If you live in Europe, you are choosing from Krushgroove's prize pot.
If you live anywhere else, you may choose from either prize pot.

Thanks again to everyone who donated! If you're drawing from Iris's pot you should pick both a 'small' prize and a 'big' prize! In general, that means one prize equal to a GW box set and one prize equal to 1-3 solo minis. 'Gimme a big hit from the box of Bones' counts as a valid choice, by the way. There's so much loot that there's still gonna be a huge end-of-year prize left over from this, even with being this generous.

I just marked that you did do this as speed painting (it's enough proof), though it also looks like you earned that achievement in a prior month as well.

:wom: will blow your mind.
I think as a US Goon I picked something from the EU grabbag a long time ago. I might have agreed to wait for end of the season shipment too based on the fact that it never arrived and I vaguely remember the thread talking along those lines a while back. Honestly I don't remember much else besides that there was an Laser cut MDF Ork tower with my name on it in some picture gallery.

I can still claim that one and still have it shipped at the end of the season, or if it would be better for shipping I can select from the US bag instead. I assume that is why there are separate bags to begin with. But, if rules are rules and because I picked the tower then it's all cool. (all the prizes are cool is what I am saying).

Or maybe if something was lost in the system and my lazy butt never noticed then so be it, I might just miss that prize. I have plenty of crap around here anyway.

One-Off Prize Time!

Just like last year, generous goons are coming forward to donate prizes to participants in the Oath Thread, and this time it's goon NTRabbit!

NTRabbit will be giving away one of 3 awesome prizes: a Mantic Sci fi zombie sprue, a Mantic Enforcer Sprue or a Robotech Glaug Battlepod!

To enter, all you have to do is include the year (2015, '15, MMXV, etc) in any language somewhere on the mini or base. It could be on a banner, a vehicle serial number, a flyer tail number, ID on a suit of armour, even graffiti on a wall. The '2015' should be a part of the model, rather than it being pure background, and doing so will enter you into a random draw to win this very cool prize!

When posting your Oath Complete pictures, be sure to note where you've put the number on your model, so we are sure to add you to the prize draw pool!

Hard plastic sci fi zombie sprue



New Enforcer sprue



Hard to find pictures of them painted in the wild, they're still being received, so that's the studio set (shields not included sorry, or possibly they will be, I have to add up and see, no guarantees)

:ducksiren: October judgment! :ducksiren:

I'm late! I bought a house and got all discombobulated! On with the points!


Third Place, 1 Point: Slimnoid



Still have a kick rear end style. Love the palette on the Necromancer. The Whiskey Golem came out super clean. I really dig the blue lighting you have on the dragon, the gradient from light to dark looks really cool.



Second Place, 2 Points: LaikatheSpaceDog



All of your dioramas kick rear end, this one is no different. Your painting is super sharp on this piece. All of the little details are crisp and clean, the assembly is flawless. The colors pop, great job all around.



First Place, 3 Points: Deanut Pancer



That blood splatter is soooo good. Great job on the whites, great weathering on the icon on his back. Love the brighter shade of green on the grot, and his yellow lower lip. Great balance on both of them.


Jurnal, 1 Point: LaikatheSpaceDog



Like I said up above, your dioramas always kick rear end.

First off, apologies for the delay in judging! Got wrapped up in other stuff and it totally slipped off my radar. It took Krushgroove with an iron whip to get me back on track.

:captainpop: OCTOBER JUDGEMENT! (in January) :captainpop:

1st Place (3 points) – Lovestick – At first, when I was looking through the gallery, the genestealers gave me pause. Classic color scheme, well executed, but with a bit of a desaturated gritty look to it. They were true to the original colors, but more grimdark and less cartoony. That, plus the red of the Blood Angels added hints of gore, without any actual gore. “Good stuff”, I thought. Then I saw the table. “Well that’s an accomplishment,” I thought. Then the diorama. “Hot drat!”. You had it all this month – good brushwork, nice paint choices, good modeling, and a great sense of humor. Well done!



2nd Place (2 points) – Signal. I started here being heartily impressed with the Infinity figs. Good, solid color schemes. All of those fine lines on that Infinity armour can be easy to mistakenly fill in and over-paint, so that fact that you’ve kept stuff clear here is noteworthy. Of course, you may have micron-penned it after painting, but it doesn’t matter. The effect is the same, and I’ve seen enough sloppy pen-jobs to know that it’s not easy. The backpack on Tarik does a particularly nice job of showing off your technique. The blue really pops, and the color is great (though watch out for the occasional but of fuzzy primer!). You had my attention until I saw the Owlbear. With the wild yellow eyes. And the fez. And the freehand Shriner’s logo. Hells yes. That’s when you got my points. Great showing this month! (Also, that's a really clean freehand logo!)



3rd Place (1 point) – Laika the Space Dog. loving stop it. Seriously, just stop. Space Marine toys. Teacher looks like he just stepped out of a Mercer Mayer book. A thumbtack the size of a forearm ready to impale the unsuspecting teacher. The kid’s art on the desk. The apple. All well painted with a bright palette that catches the eye without being over the top. Wunderbar.



Bonus Theme Point (1 point) – Vermintide. I always enjoy your painting, and want desperately to see an army shot of your whole army one of these days. You hit the journal out of the park on your Bat Conservation International bat-rider. The paint is top-notch. The blue and green of the goblin rider nicely mirror the colors of the logo, but are different in tone to make it look coincidental. The conversion is seamless, and the joyful look of exhilaration on the gobbo makes me want to cheer. GW are drat fools for not having though of this. Goblins NEED to ride bats. Well done!
