Not to be a smartass, but if your workflow and getting into the groove is that important, why not take your initial pictures after assembly but before priming? That's entirely within the rules of the challenge, and there's no fiddly grey area where X model is too far long, but Y is just fine.

The side panel on the rhino might disqualify it, but if you're worried about the pre shading in the crevices, I'd say that should be fine

Booley posted:Because I might have that rhino or marine sitting at that stage for several months I know that feeling, I've got some stuff that's been sitting around undercoated for years... I meant to clarify, the Rhino would be fine if it weren't for the black side panels, if the whole thing were just pre-shaded it'd be fine by me.

Oath Complete Claiming Jurnal for the freehand chapter symbols, tactical markings, power sword lighting and the little droppod mural I did on the sarge's kneepad Claiming Get the Crystal for the table toppers.

Total count: 89 models + the table. Thanks to Zark the Damned, the judges and the rest of the team for running this. You guys rock. I really enjoyed participating in this thread, it has really helped me get models finished and allowed me to accomplish some goals during a really rough time at work.

I, gameraMan, Oath to paint for April 2018 1 bed! Another Hirst Arts cast. Dug through my backlog of many minis but could not find any other space for a decent amount of freehand painting, not as much as the blanket on the bed gives me. The picture includes a bit of pencil sketching to think about what i might put there. In any case attempting to finish up Free as a bird.

Oath complete! Claiming All together now and Stay awhile and listen for my bad fan fic about burning ghost cows. I sold my Descent collection and my Fury of Dracula, so this is looking pretty empty. Of Cows and Wizards, A Frostgrave story: "What exactly am I looking at Master?" "It would appear to be the spectral remnants of the thousands who died here, brought back by a common hatred of magic." "But... Why does it look like cows?" "I believe this is where Felstadt's meat was butchered. I suspect that some enterprising wizards set up a magic slaughterhouse to make the process more efficient." The wizard gazes into the city below, where the battle rages. "Now, look at that fellow over there. The one with the enchanted sword." As the apprentice look on, the spectral bovine changes course and charges a soldier. The screams are horrible as the man is crushed beneath the ghostly hooves. "That was Ogden, Master. He was one of our soldiers." The old wizard look bored. "So it goes. We'll just hire another one. You need to learn how to think like a wizard." The old man sends his apprentice a disapproving glare. "Well, how about this, Master." the younger man says as he infuses a pebble with a tiny amount of magic and hurls it into the streets below. As is lands at the feet of three soldiers engaged in fighting, it explodes in a tiny spray of colored sparks. The cows instantly change direction, phases through a building and proceeds to gore and trample the three fighters. The apparation finally moves on when all life has left the bodies. "See, Master. Only one of those three was on our side. That's... a good trade." the apprentice says nervously. Again, the old wizard glares at his apprentice. His face slowly twists into an broad smile. "Well done! That is a proper wizardly way to see things." he says. "Now. Lets have some fun." he continues and picks up a handful of pebbles. Their hideous laughter mixes with the screams and hateful mooing from below.

Unfortunately I gameraMan am going have to bow out early and not quite complete this oath. I thought I could get farther ahead of some travel starting tomorrow, but failed to finish by today and won't be back till start of May. I did at least include an All Together Now group photo for April. I had oathed 1 bed and was going to add another as an oath addition, this next pic is as far as I got. Technically it might be complete (the left one) but isn't yet what I was going for for the month (was going to be a lot more work on the blanket) and I still wanted to include the 2nd bed. Anyway: for All Together Now we get the whole gang together So sort of a monsters run a bed and breakfast situation I guess Anyway the last few months of oathing did help me get motivated to get a lot more done than I would normally have, next months hopefully things go more smoothly...

Oath complete Claiming jurnal for camo patterning. And All Together This year I painted about 70 models, some of which are not in this picture because they were gifts. On one hand, that's a lot. On the other hand, it's not very much at all. Oh well!
