Oath Complete!

Just like I mentioned in my original post, painting this put me in a huge dissatisfaction spiral, the paint job is pretty terrible (especially that power klaw) and it just reinforces my drive to not paint. Ugh. On the plus side, I did paint something. Maybe I'll revist the klaw if I ever feel more proficient, but I just don't feel like I can aim the brush and keep it stable enough to hit things like that, but I did want to try. I did get the really noticeable spot on the spikes after I saw it in the picture, at least. Actually looking at the picture makes me see about a million terrible things in higher resolution! :emo:

The 6-pack!

Backstory
Kaptain Badsnaggle had wrangled up the baddest, snazziest, flashiest (uv course) set of Mega-Armor out there from some worthless git Bad Moon (no other Orks could afford Mega-Armor, you see), and Kustomized it up proper, getting rid of that lame Bad Moon on the belt and putting a fancy gold belly plate in, throwing on a righteous Kaptain's hat, planting a proper Jolly Ork on the engine, painting it up in a nice Piratin' Purple and wearing Lucky Blue Pantaloons. Then his grotty team of Rulez Lawyers let him know that Mega-Armor had gotten an upgrade and his set barely qualified him as an 'Ard Boy, let alone a MAN.
"It'll be a moral victree, boyz... we've still got all the teef right? Oi, we spent 'em on the Armor? Maybe... Maybe Nazdreg's hiring..."

July technical challenge maybe? if that Jolly Ork is considered a banner.

On the spreadsheet, I don't have points for the July challenge. I was a little unsure if it qualified but looking at other oaths, I think it qualifies based on review of other points scored. A back banner qualified on at least one other oath, and in the below quote (in reference to another banner question, not mine specifically), krushgroove calls an icon a banner, so I think it qualifies.

krushgroove posted:

Soz!

The OED says

On the flipside, I just got my KR Multicase in today!





It's the backpack version too, which I'd been eying off and on for a while now. It didn't come with any extra swag as far as I can tell, but that's perfectly fine by me and is more than enough to fit all my warhamms in.

So, thanks to KR and Krushgroove for the totally awesome prize!

Very true, the monthly and quarterly prizes are more numerous for sure. As you're happy to do a mercy Oath, let's let you have the points!

Uroboros posted:

Minor issue - awarded a journal point in May when I did not meet criteria, no judge's point for June. Evens out in the end, but I don't know if it effects anything.
I'm sure Lovestick will fix the spreadsheet but as you say you've got the right number of points so you're OK!

I'll be talking with Lovestick about any other points issues, meanwhile please do check the spreadsheet to make sure your points totals are correct!

And remember that if you don't put your name in your Oath Complete post pictures, you will not get points - which is only of concern to anyone trying to earn points for the year-end grand prizes!

Note for all you posting pics of your sparkling-clean work areas: I'm not 'accepting' those oaths in the same manner as your models, but if you post a finished Spring Cleaning Oath you'll get the point for it.

First Place: Arson Fire, 3pts



Man. MAN. As a former Tyranid player this is easily one of the best iterations of Behemoth I've seen. You handled that big boy like a pro and I keep going back to it and going "this is really freakin' good."

Second Place, 2 Points: Arson Fire

Excellent blends on the back plates, and the base is incredible.


First Place, 3 Points: Gareth Gobulcoque

The scheme on this model is unusual, but it works very well and compliments its odd appearance. The shading and highlighting on skin and pipes is especially solid.


Jurnal, 1 Point: Indolent Bastard

This flag is very crisp overall and the subtle highlights work very well here.
