Thanks Germ, I will enjoy it! Thanks for sponsoring the competition, and thanks Oath Thread

Yea! Glad to hear it arrived. Now Oath it and get it painted, you layabout!

moths: Aug 25, 2004; I would also still appreciate some danger.

I, moths, oath six Imperial Knights Lancer, one Imperial Knight Baron (EPIC! GW) and two DAK soldiers (28mm, Perry miniatures).

(The timestamp is from yesterday, I had some phone problems.)

I think that the DAK guys should qualify me for the rudely named Phillip K. Dick contest, since I got confused and thought I had to read Man in the High Castle. Holy poo poo, Africa.

Oath addition

I am adding 1 Warmachine warcaster Kommander Harkevich, and 1 lance of Capellan battlemechs from the Battletech intro box as well as from various Battletech alpha strike lance packs. A Raven, a Vindicator, a Catapult, and a Cataphract. I think these guys are supposed to be 5mm scale? Whatever the scale Epic 40k is, it's roughly the same.

Oath Complete

Claiming the Jurnal because... well, it's yellow. I decided taxi rather than school bus though.

It's also a conversion, in case that matters, for the magnet mod on the manoeuvring fins.

Might make an addition later on, I have the model waiting which I primed ready for August and didn't have time to complete.

(It's Korben's taxi from 5th Element. And I don't loving know what happened to the white balance on some of these, it was fine on most of them)

Could kick myself. I've finally got round to priming my Oath for this month, sat down and thought "Oh I'll just top up the white before my photo". Then put a wash on it to start painting. Zark, would I still be able to oath this, either as is or using the cheevo?

So, whoever decided that this month's theme would be yellow? Yeah, gently caress that guy. I'm soaking my poo poo in SuperClean right now because I couldn't get an even enough coat with full coverage without everything looking like thin_your_paints.jpg. Time to crack out the airbrush and be super careful with the black/NMM parts, I guess. Grrrr :argh:

I haven't tried this, but I hear you can mask the parts you want not to be airbrushed with putty of some sort. Like I say, haven't tried it myself, but seems like a good way not to mess up your black/NMM

I guess it depends on the level of wash and whether you've done different colours, personally I'd say a single wash'd be about the same level of pre-preparing as a zenithal undercoat so it's be OK with me.

I should probably get off my backside and oath something sooner rather than later, the whole 'paint something yellow' is leaving new cooks though so still not sure what.
