I never did post a Whales for 'em, but had been using my little free time in Dec to try and kick them up a notch for full urban camo and wasn't sure if that would invalidate them. For example, my gob stunt bot used to look like: But now looks:  Also did some minor base work on a few since I wasn't happy with how the rubble turned out. I'd like to try and camo them all next month with a whales oath if it's still valid. thiswayliesmadness fucked around with this message at 11:43 on Jan 9, 2015 |

I would say they'd be fine for Whales-in (Leperflesh to confirm, I think) - I would look at it as you didn't quite finish them in November and now you're finishing them.

To give everyone a chance to look through the November Oaths I'm waiting an extra 6 hours before sending the link to the Judges (that's about an extra 4 hours from the time of this post), so please have a look and let me know if your Oath is missing!

Determined, not to be the last judge with results in this time around… I AM JUDGING YOU!!!!! (for November) First Place (3 points): Moths Admittedly, I’m partly biased because I’m in the middle of putting together a US Armored Rifle Company for Flames of War. Mostly, though, it means I’ve recently wrapped my head around how tiny those little 15mm mans are, and what a loving nightmare it is going to be to paint them, let alone get them to look halfway decent. Then this Moths guy comes along, and paints his 15mm dudesmen like they are 28mm dudesmen. The color choices are what one would expect from a historical WWII game, but it’s the fiddly details that really let things shine through here. Sure, those Allied stars and serial numbers are decals, but that unit insignia on the side of the halftrack? Pure freehanding talent. And the stubble on the gunner in the cupola? Who the hell does that with a 15mm model? Hell, who CAN do that with a 15mm model and not have it look like garbage? Moths can, that’s who. Lots of stuff to like here – you put out a whole platoon, and still managed to make it look really, really good. Well done!  Second Place (2 points): Android I’m the first to admit that I like me some cartoony miniatures. I like miniatures that are meant for the gaming table, where the highlighting translates well enough that you can distinguish detail from 3 to 4 feet away (the distance from which one generally views models during a game). You’ve got that style of painting down-pat. The color selection is great. The shade of green you use adds a nice bit of warmth and vibrancy, without going over the top. It’s a really nice balance between bright and colorful and grimdark. You’ve mastered the art of the accent color - the red, purple, and white touches really make it stand out and zing without overwhelming things. Finally, the scratch-built lobber is awesome. Given a chance, who wouldn’t use livestock to weaponize a beer keg?  Third Place (1 point):Slimnoid You’re always an outstanding and prolific painter, but it’s really cool to see the variety of models you do well. Freehand? Check. Great weathering and rust? Check. Solid color selection? Check. Smooth color transitions? loving STOP IT ALREADY! Actually, please don’t stop it. Please keep doing it and keep posting pictures of them on SA. Picked the dreadnought as the picture because I really like the overall effect, and the base makes me feel warm and tingly.  Journal Bonus (1 point): Signal You continue to put out good, consistent painting, but it’s this guy who really caught my eye. His face is incredible. The eyes are well-painted while remaining very subtle. The scar blends in nicely with his face. Hell, it even looks like his lips might be shaded appropriately. The thing that caught my eye, though, was the stubble. You nailed the theme without doing a bit of sculpting. All brushwork. All realistic. All well-executed. Congrats!

Late start again this month, so I'm gonna have to lower my expectations from a full command squad to just one dude. I, drgnvale, oath for the month of January 1 space marine veteran on bike with a banner.  My intention is to freehand the banner (although I may do the print a picture and paint over it trick I did for my last banner) for this month's journal, so hopefully I get that looking good enough!

We're two weeks into into 2015, and a nasty respiratory infection has already lost me 6 lbs! So why not get a jump on another resolution: I, moths, oath one WWI British rifle section and one officer. These are 28mm from Renegade Miniatures, I'll be using them with the Chain of Command rules.  Germ posted:(3 points)  This made my day!

Germ posted: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!) Germ posted:Journal Bonus (1 point): Signal Thanks Germ! I'm not really sure how one uses a micropen, but the lining is just brush.  Oath!  Picture is kinda fuzzy, but that's two Geckos from Infinity/Corvus Belli, in 28mm

My Tau aren't complete yet, so this is a WIP pic, but they've already won the painting competition at the local GW! Of course, this would have been more of an achievement if more than one other person had entered, or if that person had bothered to stick arms on his firewarriors

drat, almost half of the month is already gone and I haven't oathed anything. Well, January should be sort of quiet, so I'll have bunch of time to paint. I, Lord Hypnostache, oath one Orc Standard Bearer, one Typhus, four Blightkings and one Maulerfiend. Three of the Blightkings have been converted with 40k bits to be used as Obliterators. Everything is 28mm GW except the bases are from Secret Weapon and the Maulerfiend's head is from Raging Heroes.

The Supreme Court posted:I, The Supreme Court, oath the monsters from Kemet for January. Matagot games, various scales (board game pieces) I can't see 'American Samoa' or even 'Pago Pago' on your phone's screen but I've let someone go on this earlier this month because it's clear that the picture was taken this month and this year. But I can't let this go again (I should be more stringent on this, really) so I will have to insist the next person to do this same thing retake the picture. However, although I'm sick I'm still in a good mood so Oath Accepted!

 NOVEMBER JUDGMENTS1 Point - Indolent Bastard  Lovely choice of colors on the die bearer, I'm really into that bluish silver beard. He'd look great with a wide variety of die colors, I bet. Your 6mm spearmen are also particularly nice, I like the variety in the clothing as well as the bright shield designs. The designs themselves have a uniform simplicity that works really well. 2 Points - Under 15  A great spectrum this month, from rank-and-file to mounted boss and beyond. Industrious to say the least, and these all look great. The scheme you've been building is showing such versatility. The boss is eye-catching and appropriately gaudy, and those squigs are delightful, but my favorite element might be the weight and arm of the catapult. Something about the purple, silver, green, and orange cohabitation is just nailing it so hard. 3 Points - Signal  Holy crap, these look like people I could know and talk to. Needless to say, excellent work on the faces. Their personalities are displayed well, I like how calm they all seem to be. On task. The cyan has some nice bright highlights, that's good stuff. A wise choice in the dominant saturated color. Bonus Jurnal Point - Deanut Pancer  That's a finer ork than most orks get to be, for sure. I especially like the metallics. The rainbow mohawk, though, is fantastic. Especially combined with his no-bullshit glare. Made me smile!

November judgment! Third Place, 1 Point: Red Shoe  Love the gradient from light to dark on the armor for these guys. Great weathering on all the armor and metals on your jacks, and cool bases once again. Second Place, 2 Points: Android  Great bases on your orcs. Love the style of painting as well, well defined highlights, limited palette makes everything pop. First Place, 3 Points: Slimnoid   Awesome ,just awesome. Look at those god drat bases, rust, hazard striping, weathering on the hazard striping, lighting effect from the wires, all without looking busy. Great look on the sword and banner of the marine. Jurnal, 1 Point: Signal Your faces this month were also super cool and expressive. Both the hair and the stubble on this dude are above and beyond.
