The pawsting business is tough work.
Judgmental July

Third place, 1 point: Red Shoe


I liked all your submissions this month, but this one in particular stood out. You've got a good variety of textures going on this model, and a really cohesive color scheme. Everything looks of a piece, while still very readable.

Second place, 2 points: Corrode


Apart from enjoying the Third Street Necrons on a basic level, you've also got some defined shading on these guys, which is way more effort than I find myself ever capable of expending on primarily-metallic things, and that'll earn points.

First place, 3 points: Duct Tape


And similar to the above, but with added verdigris effects, a lovely rich red primary, and a very smooth accent color in a shade where that's hard to pull off.

Bonus point: Zark the Damned


Both solid paint jobs, and I enjoyed pointing and laughing at the little broom guy next to an enormous treant.

Third Place, 1 point: bonds0097


This is a delightfully aggressive model in both pose and energy; the thunder hammer glow is really impressive against the muted tones of the armor.


Second Place, 2 points: Red Shoe


Really spectacular base work, of course, but this titanic tree-beast is incredible. On a smaller scale, your soldier also has some delightfully earthy tones to it.


First Place, 3 points: Grassy Gnoll


Cool arid scrub basing on all the bases. But what really sets these guys apart is the great line and detail work on the figures themselves. They blend together cohesively, with a palette that combines bright primary colors, desaturated neutral tones, and strong contrasts. You manage to make space werewolves look grounded and realistic.


Bonus Point: Nighttheii


The mushroom-dudes are cute, the space marines are all right, and then holy crap those Hordes models. The bone color against the cracked mud of the river bed is very striking, and the voodoo gator looks like he's having a great time.

Haemotrope Reactors. Already been in their first game (played Killteam the other day) - Rescue Ranger as described in my Oath


A winged horse. Similar to my other monsters I based it on a real life horse colouring (rather than the classic all-white for a Pegasus)


Birbdogs! Eagle / lion Gryphounds to be precise, to kind of match with a Griffon I painted for a previous season.


Ghost lady, with a very simple Recipe for Success:

Step 1: Undercoat Ceramite White
Step 2: Apply Army Painter Purple Wash all over but concentrating on the deeper parts
Step 3: Re-highlight with Ceramite White with multiple successive light drybrushes

I'll be copying this for any other ghosts I may add to the Undead force I'm (very) slowly raising.

Claiming the Big Brother monthly challenge. He has a regular compass, a magic compass, a school of fish called "scryfish" so he must be good at surveillance right? The staff, I think, is just for show. In melee he fights using his "deadly-sharp Finger-claw" and at range he attacks you with fishy-nibbles.

Thanks! It's really simple: base with sand ("fine grit" from Michaels), basecoat with VMC desert yellow, wash with Army Painter strong tone, drybrush with VMC green, light drybrush with VMC light turquoise. Unless you mean the fish, those are actually part of the model.

My oath was for both the model and the pictured terrain, so the picture might be a bit crowded. To help, here's one of Belisarius Cawl by himself, and one of a higher-up view of the terrain.



Claiming A Faithful Replica for matching the official paint scheme on Belisarius Cawl: https://imgur.com/yqqsg5C. Games Workshop's photo uses a warmer light source than mine, so the colors look a little off, but I assure you they do in fact match.

Onwards to September:

quote:

September - Obligatory Conversion Clinic Month
Convert your miniature in some way. Maybe a simple head or weapon swap, or you could go as far as a scratch build or your own sculpt! If you’re converting an existing figure, include a picture of what a standard version of the model looks like. If you're adapting your model to have swappable components (magnetig / plug in / etc.) this counts, include pictures of each option 'in action'!

I'll catch up with the completions and oaths etc. tomorrow, it's been a busy week.

Aaaaaaagh!
August oath posting too late but wanted to show it anyway!

Had pictures taken and ready to post and then personal stuff separating me from my computer messed things up last night... Thought I'd show anyway, I spent a lot of time thinking about the color scheme (and not liking online examples) and finally decided to sort of merge the two month concepts with a limited color scheme on the body to give it sort of a 50's horror movie vibe, and only color the eyes. Generally happy about that:



Had even been ready to show spic and span, one pic:



So at least I've got one more painted mini up on the shelf.

Anyway now I gotta decide do I take on another miniature project for the month or change gears to a large ship model project that will certainly not get done in a month, hmm....
