The Panserbjorn, men of the north stop their mighty 'steeds'.


A trio of Owlbears awakened to defend their forest habitat, and looking none too pleased about it! Lots of heavy fur and feathers for the challenge here!


Bonus picture of them alongside my previously painted Owlbears from earlier seasons.

I, LazyAngel, Oath for December... a tree!



TBH, it's a base for a GW Phoenix that I've gone *way* overboard on, but it's still mostly a tree.

Approved!

Sorry all for the late judging, I’ll be getting it done this weekend!

Wow I'm a massive liar! With all apologies, please find below the latest judging any iteration of this thread has likely ever had.

August Judgement

3rd Place (1 Point): LazyAngel



Fantastically savage, the contrast you've got on these really helps the various details pop without overwhelming - the splash of turqoise blue on the leader works brilliantly with the overall scheme.


2nd Place (2 Points): Duct Tape



When all in a group like this, the black and gold scheme really comes into its own, and it's made me rethink how I want to paint my own custodes.


1st Place (3 Points): Galaspar



What a great kitbash and conversion this is, I especially like the (greenstuff?) stretched face on the poleaxe. Gruesome and a great example of the months challenge.


Bonus Point: Galaspar

The gross decomposing warband won me over completely.

September Judgement

3rd Place (1 Point): Ashcans



The design of the freehand work really throws me back to the 3rd edition artwork that got me into the hobby in the first place, especially nice work on the fire.

2nd Place (2 Points): KingMob



A lot of care and attention has been put into the faces here, which really helps a model stand out.


1st Place (3 Points): Brock Samsonite



Holy poo poo. I've really enjoyed seeing your models over the season, and this one works brilliantly. The clean and well planned paintjob is good enough, and then you throuigh in that freehand work (on an uneven surface to boot).


Bonus Point: Zark the Damned



An abundance of yellow and then some very neatly done freehand definitely deserves the bonus point, in addition to everything else painted up.

October Judgement

3rd Place (1 Point): KingMob



These models are great and the paint job better! The augmented kick boxer is especially well done.

2nd Place (2 Points): Zark the Damned



A great little group, and more thatn I could paint in a single month. The hazard stripes are super neat and I like the added freehand on the banner.


1st Place (3 Points): LazyAngel



I really like the scheme used here - green is used so often for wood elves that the turquoise is a really nice breath of fresh air. Your colour palettes are always on point.

Bonus Point: Galaspar



Sticking to the theme, and it's a primaris getting beatdown so definitely a bonus point for that. I really like the bone look for the blight drones carapace.

Claiming Through Thick and Thin for the fur texture.


This was a fun mini even though it involved a lot of struggling with the soft Bones sculpt and mushy detail. Even drybrushing the fur was a pain in the rear end because the detail was so shallow that it just filled everything in. Tried to compensate by pushing painted textures and volumes wherever I could. Definitely a learning experience!

Let's do the space-time warp again!

Oath Complete

My promise for the new year is getting a decent photo setup because winging it in my kitchen with my phone is not a good trend.

I was looking up pictures for inspiration before painting my griffin and thought that a red-shouldered hawk looked awesome. I forgot that I would have to actually paint the super cool wing patterning onto my miniature, so spent a ton of time trying to get the striping/dappling on before giving up at the current incarnation. My wife is on orders to throw this at me the next time I think that stripes/spots/dapples is a good paint idea (excluding Harlequins, where it is required)






Claiming the monthly as this guy has both fur and feathers!

Third Place, 1 point:  Galaspar

 
Tough & gritty, yet gaudy enough to obviously fit the 40K universe.  The color scheme on the tabards really works against the drabness of their weapons and gear.  (Also, nice inclusion of decades-old murder mystery graffiti on the barricades.)
 
Second Place, 2 points:  Brock Samsonite

 
This figure just screams "no nonsense," and the slightly grimy color scheme really sells it.  Excellent skin tone and shading on the muscles.  (Were you going for a 90's Lara Croft universe crossover on this one?  It's been a long couple of months.)
 
First Place, 3 points:  Duct Tape

 
Very subtle shading as usual, on a color scheme with a good deal more "pop" than your Martians.  The contrast between the bright orange and the teal/lavender is very eye-catching and cool.  I like the nods to the Rebel flight suits as well; they're strangely fitting in a universe where everyone is the bad guy.
 
Bonus Point:  gameraMan


I'm a sucker for well-done miniature props, and these are nicely detailed and really crisp.  I like what you've done with the transparent castings.
 
Happy New Year, Oath Thread! May your paint jobs only improve more in 2020.  :toot:

Went for a fast and loose approach, playing with brown and purple undershading, then heavy washes and drybrushing to finish it off. Now just to finish the thing the base is intended for...

3rd Place (1pts): LazyAngel

Not only does the model look great, but the base for it make it look like it plucked right off the battlefield.


2nd Place (2pts): Ashcans

Something about those teeth and eyes just drew my attention and sucked me right in. All the highlighting make this model just fantastic and I really love how it turned out!


1st Place (3pts): Brock Samsonite

The attention to detail on this is crazy. Everything from the subtle shadows on the skin down to the mismatched socks, it really makes the model come alive.


Bonus (1pts): Galaspar

These models have just about every color under the sun on them: blues, orange, yellow, green brown, purple, green. Absolutely chaotic, but they all work together to create a fantastic looking set of minis.
